Pros	Strong reliability handling schema changes and large-scale syncs, per reviewers Broad catalog of 200+ destination integrations Multi-year track record as a G2 category leader before acquisition	Scales storage and compute independently, handling very large data volumes without hardware management SQL-first interface means teams already fluent in SQL have a shallow learning curve Cloud-native and multi-cloud, working across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud without lock-in to one provider Wide, mature partner ecosystem (Fivetran, dbt, Tableau, Looker, etc.) for ingestion, transformation, and BI
Contras	No longer sold as a standalone product — folded into Fivetran Activations after the May 2025 acquisition Post-acquisition pricing moved to consumption-based Monthly Active Rows, which some reviewers found harder to predict	Consumption-based billing can balloon quickly if warehouses aren't monitored or auto-suspended Pricing is comparatively steep for smaller companies and small-scale workloads Weaker support for unstructured data and small/incremental file loading compared to bulk loads Requires ongoing cost-governance discipline (resource monitors, alerts) that adds operational overhead
