Migrate from Fivetran to DLH.io
Trade usage-based MAR bills for one flat price with unlimited data. Our team rebuilds your connectors, schemas, and schedules, runs both platforms side by side until the numbers match, then helps you cut over.

Same tables in your warehouse. One predictable bill.
Why teams leave Fivetran
Bills you can't forecast
Monthly active rows rise with backfills, re-syncs, and busy months, not just with the value you get. Budgeting a year ahead becomes guesswork.
Every connection is metered
Since Fivetran moved MAR pricing to each connection in 2025, adding a source or store can cost more than the last one did.
Transformation is another bill
Models usually run in dbt Cloud, with its own seats and run limits. Two vendors, two contracts, two places to debug.
How we move you off Fivetran
Five steps, led by our team. Nothing is switched off until the new pipelines are proven.
- 01
Assess
We inventory your Fivetran pipelines: sources, synced tables, schedules, destinations, and the models and reports that read from them.
- 02
Map
Each pipeline is matched to a DLH.io connector or agent, with table and column mapping written down before anything is built.
- 03
Rebuild
Our team configures the DLH.io pipelines and destination schemas, and loads history from your sources.
- 04
Run in parallel
Fivetran keeps running while DLH.io loads the same data. We reconcile row counts and key totals until they match.
- 05
Cut over
Point your models and reports at the DLH.io tables, then retire Fivetran. No downtime, and you switch only when you're sure.
What moves, and who does the work
We rebuild for you
- Source connections and the tables and columns you sync
- Destination schemas and table structures
- Sync schedules and replication frequency
- Historical loads from each source
- On-premise SQL Server and Oracle sources, through the DLH.io agent
We finish with your team
- Source and warehouse credentials, IP allowlisting, or SSH tunnels
- Re-pointing dbt sources at the new tables, or moving the project to DbDeux
- Models that use Fivetran system columns such as _fivetran_synced or _fivetran_deleted
- Sign-off on the reconciliation before cutover
