About the Company

Fivetran

Moves business data into cloud analytics systems

Fivetran moves data from business applications and databases into cloud analytics systems so data teams can work with reliable records instead of building pipelines by hand. Its ready-made connectors handle changes in source tables and software interfaces, reducing the maintenance needed to keep information up to date. Teams also use its transformation tools to turn raw records into datasets for reporting, operations and AI applications. Fivetran charges for usage, measuring the distinct records changed each month and the data models run, with plans for different security and operational needs. Founded in 2012, Fivetran is headquartered in Oakland, California.
