The honest half
Where it falls short
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Fivetran.
- Billed on monthly active rows, so the bill tracks how much source data changes rather than how much is stored or queried
- Each connection follows its own cost curve, so total spend is hard to predict before running a pipeline
- The free plan allows 500,000 monthly active rows, 3,500 activation rows and 5,000 model runs
- Transformations are metered separately, from $0.01 per model run above 5,000 down to $0.002 above 100,000
- A schema change upstream that touches many rows raises the bill without any change on the customer's side
