Dell AppSync vs. Fivetran

Dell AppSync maintains consistent and automated backups and in case of disaster recovery the software provides all the options of automatically generated daily copies to choose from. Integration can take place in different environments such as VMware, SQL, Oracle, Microsoft and others. Built-in management and compatibility makes work easier and lets you keep the always-on service up and running. We recommend Dell AppSync.

[Fivetran is] very well suited when you are using popular and common data sources, such as the major ad platforms, and SaaS platforms such as Salesforce. If the majority of your data sources are custom internal applications or databases, may be less value as you aren't leveraging the delivered connectors.

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.

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.

Dell EMC Storage products are in use accross the estate so is more suited to use Dell software to manage the replicaiton of data between storage arrays. Provides us with a stable and trouble free mehtod to replicate data across luns. Good product to have implemented during an datacenter outage

Fivetran came well with the connectors' availability and updates with the source changes. We had an idea on data requirements in our case which helped us to work out on cost implication and take a decision for Fivetran as a data provider for our organization. These were 2 places where Fivetran out-performed, other vendors.
