    Fivetran's business model justifies the use-case where we require data from a single source basically a lot of data but if the requirement is not on the heavier side, Fivetran comes to costly operation when compared to its peers. Otherwise, I'll recommend Fivetran for stability and update and seamless service provider.

    Great tool for client management, sales tracking, cases studies. Using is as the source of truth for all client communication. Allowing more integration options for cc and ACH payments. Right now the options are limited and only integrate with strict processing capabilities that are not always in the businesses best interest.

    • pricing or costing visibilty, we can't estimate what would be consumption this month and suddenly we get surprised
    • CI/CD can be improved, that looks a difficult and hard
    • Also sandbox comes with many limitation so very hard to replicate production like environment to test

    Usability
    Fivetran
    Very easy and intuitive to setup and maintain as there usually are not that many options. Very well documented (e.g. how to setup each connector, how the schema looks like, any specific features of this connector etc.). Also the operation is intuitive, e.g. you have status pages, log pages, configuration pages etc. for each connector.

    Most of the daily use features, are very usr friendly, intuitive, every end user can learn how to manage and operate basic activities such as enter information, send an email, send a campaign, create an email marketing template, run a report on the renewals for the month, open and close a support case, create new account or a new contact, etc

    Performance
    Fivetran
    It runs pretty well and gets our data from point A to point cluster quickly enough. Honestly, it's not something I think about unless it breaks and that's pretty rare.

    We never seriously considered using anything else. Our data engineers had used Fivetran extensively in previous roles so when it came time to make a decision, there wasn't much of a process. They gladly signed the contract with Fivetran pretty quickly.

    we have evaluated Snowflake, adobe rt-cdp as well. They also offer a very strong capabilities but the Data 360 is more suitable for us because of the same Salesforce ecosystem. The main key factor is without any custom code we were able to include it into our automations. And ofcourse with agentforce already in plans, we had to pick Data 360

    • Salesforce Data Cloud has a positive impact on me as a realtor because it is easy to generate reports on customer data and see what is needed to be bumped to the next level. We have to earn a certain commission by the end of the year and it makes it easy to see how close you are
    • It has a positive impact on keeping track of customers because it is nice to have it all in one place which is a nice time saver
    • I like that you can even see customer info from other agents making it nice to compare and try and pass others
    • Makes the customers journey smooth sailing because everything is in one place
