The platform is intuitive and easy to set up, and it performs reliably for scheduled data jobs and bulk operations. The support team is responsive and genuinely helpful, making issue resolution quick and painless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The query functionality didn’t meet our expectations, and usage limits can be restrictive during large operations. However, their support team reset our usage promptly, and we’ve been able to work around these limitations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At Tennis Canada, we primarily use Skyvia to replicate databases from cloud sources into a centralized data warehouse (Google Big Query), and it has been a total game-changer for us. One of the key differentiators of Skyvia compared to its direct competitors (such Integrate.io, Stitch, and Hevo) is its ability to handle a wide range of use cases: database replication, backup, ETL, reverse ETL (pushing data back into applications), import/export, and more. This makes skyvia a one-stop solution for most of our data integration needs.
Pros:
Ease of Use: The first thing you notice is how intuitive and well-designed the user interface is is: it is so easy to create and organize integrations and pipelines, schedule and monitor jobs in just a few clicks. It has saved our data team many hours.
Comprehensive Documentation: Skyvia’s documentation is exhaustive, easy to understand and regularly updated. We’ve been able to find answers to most of our questions without needing to contact support.
Customer Support: The customer support team is fantastic. They usually respond to our inquiries within hours and never more than a day or two. They are always helpful, friendly and professional. They really want you to be satisfied with your experience.
Competitive Pricing: Skyvia's data integration is affordable and competitively priced, especially when compared to alternatives like Fivetran, Airbyte, and Talend. The pricing comparable with competitors such as Integrate.io, Hevo, and Stitch.
Scalable Solution: Even if we are not currently using all the products and features available, one of the reason we chose Skyvia is for its ability to handle multiple data integration scenarios and grow with our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cons:
Available connectors: While Skyvia already offers a wide selection of connectors, it is still not has comprehensive as more mature solutions like Talend or Fivetran who offer hundreds of connectors. That said the primary connectors we need are currently available (salesforce, shopify, Google Analytics, Big Query, etc). Additionnally, the product team is very responsive and willing to build new connectors based on our requests, which will help us scale the platform as we adopt new applications .
Limited Advanced Features and customization for Larger data teams: For larger company with highly specialized and sophisticated integration needs, Skyvia may not offer as many advanced options or enterprise-grade features as some competitors, though it seems like a perfect solution for most use cases in smaller to medium sized organization who are at the beginning of their data integration journey and don't have dedicated data engineering teams .

Customer support is generally very responsive and helpful. The no-code setup are also pretty intuitive, especially if you have prior experience with creating data flows. Failure notifications via email also mean that you don't need to keep too close and eye on automated integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Debugging problems, however simple, can sometimes be time consuming. Althpugh to be, fair, I only experienced such issues when setting up connections with external databases with IP-based access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I found Skyvia when Sequin switched their business model away from my purpose (replicating Airtable to BigQuery) and so far it's been great. They have far more features than I would use but is priced better than anyone out there for data replication. On day one I set it up and haven't needed to even go back to it. It replicates hourly for me and handles all of the little details that make this particular type of replication more complicated than I desire to try and figure out.
It's been great so far and barring no huge cost changes I have no plans to change services for the foreseeable future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Haven't found anything yet to dislike as I've had it for just under a year and has done everything I've required it to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The variety of options to integrate they provide for many systems in the market. The customer service is very professional and kind. All the integrations are very simple to implement without any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing yet, they work very fast and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We've been using Skyvia's data replication service for a while now, and it's been a fantastic experience. The service is super reliable, easy to set up, and has really streamlined our data workflows. It’s made a noticeable difference in both speed and accuracy for us.
What really stands out, though, is the support. It's not every day you get such excellent customer service, and it’s made all the difference when we’ve had questions or needed assistance.
Overall, we’re really happy with Skyvia and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a solid, hassle-free data replication solution. Big thanks to Darina for going above and beyond, she has been amazing – always quick to respond and incredibly helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Out of all the technologies we use in our infrastructure, Skyvia's has always been on the ball and we have had no issues with their service - a rarity in the IT world! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to use, reasonably affordably priced, great logging and monitoring. Our company used to be able to lean on free versions of middleware software to do these tasks, but needed something more reliable as we grew. Skyvia was the perfect tool. I was able to deploy it in less than a week with basically no issues, other than a few data transformations we needed to do. Thankfully those were very easy to do in Skyvia, as long as we signed up for the paid version. I have our current integrations on a schedule that runs once a day. Would prefer more frequent but the price is right for 1x per day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Everything works great for what we need it for. Would love to be able to run our operations once an hour instead of once a day, but we can work with once a day for the price we pay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Importing or exporting data is mostly straight forward. Don't need to be a professional IT specialist to create integration jobs. For small companies with limited number of transactions, it's free to use. Tech support is very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Queue processing can take a long time. Sometimes job finish but they remain in the queue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The team was very helpful in getting us set up, and helping us troubleshoot any issues we were creating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only challenge relates to the fact that world is round, and our days don't align. But that is nothing anyone can control, really. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
