Why Fivetran® ends up costing customers 3‑5× more

Fivetran's pricing is based on monthly Active Rows consumption, but most enterprise‑grade features are only available on higher tiers like Enterprise and Business Critical, which incur significant premium costs for moving the same rows of data into your destination. Supaflow, on the other hand, uses a simple credit‑based model that charges only for compute used — typically saving teams up to 50% compared to Fivetran. See the feature comparison below for a quick review of capabilities that may force you into a higher Enterprise or Business Critical plan.
