Transformations

Fivetran

Fivetran is a simple ELT product. It connects to a  destination like a cloud data warehouse and allows a source applications database to send information to the destination.  It has only basic transformation capability. 

DataLakeHouse.io (DLH.io)

DLH.io is an ELT Data Orchestration and Managed Modern Data Stack platform. ELT data pipelines and workflows are the basis for the platform’s core functionality to access data where it lives and to synchronize or replicate the data to where it needs to be for reporting and other downstream integrations or workloads. DLH.io has transformations for Pre-Load, Post-Load, and DBT Cloud operations. By connecting source systems such as SaaS applications and databases using proprietary technology for synchronization, data is typically loaded into a cloud data warehouse or integrated with other targets such as SFTP/FTP, Slack, or EDI that are supported.

Support, Documentation, and Training

Providing self-service support and service level agreements are important to customer success as well as proper documentation and training.  Both systems provide good documentation and support options.

Fivetran

Fivetran provides support through an in-app form. Documentation is clearly made for very technical resources. They do not provide training services.

DataLakeHouse.io (DLH.io)

DLH.io provides in-app support to all of its customers and phone support is available for Enterprise and Business Critical plan customers. Several support SLA options are available to meet customer demands. Documentation is comprehensive and often accompanied by video tutorials or explanations. Anyone can contribute to DLH.io documentation to improve it. Training is offered not only for use of the platform but several courses provide rudimentary to advanced data engineering and analytics engineering education for any data worker or data team to expand their knowledge about new concepts and opportunities with data, analytics, data warehousing, and best practices.

Pricing

All great software has a cost associated with it and these platforms are no exception.

Fivetran

Fivetran provides a 14-day free trial but does not disclose pricing. They base pricing on a logarithmic processing of rows of data which has been described as confusing and overly complicated.

DataLakeHouse.io (DLH.io)

DLH.io has pricing that fits any data-driven team’s budget and can scale to fit a wide variety of scenarios and budgets at companies of all sizes. DLH.io offers both a capacity-based pricing model and a monthly fixed consumption model pricing which aligns with any industry standard pricing our customers see in other SaaS/PaaS products and more recently with Cloud Data Warehouses. This is available so that customers looking at data synchronization or ELT efforts can relate to familiar use-to-pay concepts they are already familiar with or how they spend in their enterprise currently. DLH.io offers a 14-day trial on source to target destination synchronizations. Standard plans range from $149 to $1,000 per month depending on scale. Additional features are available for data management which the vendor in this comparison does not or cannot offer. Sign up now for a free trial of DLH.io.
