Estuary Flow Reviews & Product Details

I love the getting started experience, the UI is so intuitive and straight forward, we need more of that in the data engineering space! They also have a ton of CDC options which is in high demand and Estuary makes this super easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wouldn't say "dislike", that's a little strong but the transformation experience is a little bit awkward from a context switching perspective. I'd also like to see the ability to deploy pipelines as self-hosted agents or even a BYOC deployment model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Besides the UVP of the product itself (user-friendly UI/UX for data streaming), the Estuary team really sets itself apart from the competition in terms of the excellent level of support they've given us both over the course of our trial with them and the support they continue to give us going into the future with Estuary Flow an invaluable part of our data stack.

Our usage of instant data updates has resulted in some not-insignificant Snowflake virtual warehouse costs - and while we did come to expect this during our tria, we hope that the Snowflake materialization connector will receive some extra love in the future to help us wrangle these costs.

We needed an easy way to integrate Mongo to BigQuery. It took us a few days to implement. It ended up being almost 1/10th the cost of Fivetran, and we could get it to work quickly. We struggled getting Airbyte to work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Estuary Flow is an incredibly powerful product, and the Estuary team bend over backwards in supporting their customers. As a company they are more of a partner then merely a service provider, which makes working with them exceptional.

As we are in the Telecommunciations space we handle a large amount of data, have very low latency requirements, require absolute integrity and reliability, and are cost sensitive. Estuary handles all of this, and some more with its flexible and powerful transformations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Complex to create transformations, which comes hand in hand with the power, and is something actively being improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the aspects I appreciate the most about Estuary Flow is its ability to seamlessly and efficiently replicate and load data from Google Firestore into our enterprise data warehouse. The tool simplifies the entire process, allowing us to consolidate and analyze our data without the complexities typically associated with data loading from Firestore. This streamlined approach has saved us valuable time and resources while providing reliable and accurate data for our business insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In my experience with Estuary Flow, while the majority of the user interface is intuitive and user-friendly, I did find that certain aspects required a learning curve initially. However, the Estuary team was incredibly supportive and responsive, assisting me in achieving the desired behavior we were aiming for. Their prompt assistance and guidance made the learning process smoother and more efficient.

Furthermore, I have noticed that Estuary Flow has made continuous improvements to the user experience (UX) over time. The product updates have introduced enhancements that have empowered us to become more self-serviced in managing the data replication and loading tasks. These improvements reflect the commitment of the Estuary team to listen to user feedback and evolve the software to better meet the needs of their customers.

We're a big fan of Estuary's real-time, no code model. It's magic that we're getting real time data without much effort and we don't have to spend time thinking about broken pipelines. We've also experienced fantastic support by Estuary, sometimes they go as far as to make a change for us if it's easier for them to do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We're not sold on the transformations being done in Estuary yet, choosing to stick with DBT for the time being there. They've just released SQL transformations though so this could change over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The time it saves our devs - they do not need to learn the ins and outs of multiple data destinations. Estuary Flow also provides fantastic support! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI has been difficult to use at times, but it is constantly improving, and the team has always helped us navigate it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Removes a lot of complexity and time writing code to get data from one platform to another Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the actions in the UI could be more clear, but I am sure that is trivial and will be iterated upon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
