Keboola vs Fivetran:
Reduce operational costs without slowing growth

Keboola takes care of all your data demands from ETL, to orchestrations, data governance, and audit.

One vendor, one invoice, lower costs.

ETL or more? Keboola has got your back.

Both Keboola and Fivetran simplify data complexity by extracting data from different sources and loading it into the final destination. One of them goes the extra mile.
Keboola is a Data Platform as a Service that goes beyond the ETL. It’s at the centerpiece of data operations, and provides core data architecture that drives successful digital transformation.
Fivetran is an ELT tool primarily focused on the extraction and loading part of the ETL process. Built for analysts who want their data centralized but don’t want to spend time with their own pipelines or ETL systems.

Pricing Model

Keboola’s pricing is determined with the universal currency of “computational runtime minutes.” This means you are charged for the exact time each Job takes. Extracting, transforming, loading data, or any other data activity is easily measured, so you never have to do mental gymnastics for your calculations. 🤓
Fivetran has consumption-based pricing based on monthly active rows across all connectors and destinations in your account. The rows are counted multiple times: once they extract data, when it is used in transformations, and when it is written into a data source. And people do not love that. 🤯

Best for...

Keboola is designed to streamline and automate all data operations. Instead of separately selecting, acquiring, configuring and integrating an endless list of technologies to build your data stack, Keboola can achieve the same result with just one platform.
Fivetran specializes in ELT and doesn’t have a wide range of data operation capabilities. Fivetran customers need additional tools if they want a data catalog or advanced orchestrations. Its customizability of connectors is limited also.
