How many connectors?
Supermetrics offers a decent range of connectors that cover a lot of the basic data sources that many companies will use. However, not all data sources are covered such as Amazon Selling Partners or Mailgun or eBay or Zendesk or Twitch.
Adverity’s connector library on the other hand has more than 600 connectors compared to around 140 in Supermetrics. What’s more, Adverity has teams dedicated to the painstaking maintenance of all their APIs to ensure they are always working and up-to-date.
How about data transformation?
Supermetrics offers data transformation options that cover a decent range of use cases - for example, country code standardization and currency conversion. However, users cannot code their own transformations and though the Custom Fields with AI feature allows for data manipulation, this is limited to the creation of new fields. In other words, data in existing fields cannot be transformed with this feature.
Alternatively, Adverity presents a more comprehensive selection of advanced and adaptable transformation options that can cater to almost any use case.
Users can utilize powerful prebuilt templates such as Smart Naming Conventions and Translate. They can also code their own data transformations as well as use our Enrichment CoPilot for AI assistance for simple to complex executions.
Where can you send your data?
Across destination categories, Supermetrics offers a limited range of destinations which users can directly send their data to - for example, just Power BI and Looker Studio for Business Intelligence.
Adverity offers a wider selection of destinations, from Data Warehouses and Data Lakes to B.I. and Audience platforms for increased versatility in sharing your data wherever you need it.
Any data governance tools?
While Supermetrics is a great data extraction tool, it doesn’t include key tools for monitoring and ensuring the quality of your data.
Adverity gives you access to advanced data governance tool such as parent-child workspaces, an AI-powered data quality suite, and Smart Naming Conventions so you can ensure your data is 100% trustworthy.
As a fully-integrated data platform, Adverity lets you easily view, configure, enrich, manage, store, secure, and send your data all from one place.
What's the cost?
Supermetrics is a good option if your budget is small and your needs are basic. However, users should be wary of additional costs that can escalate quickly, particularly when adding new users, accounts, connectors, or data ingestion frequency.
In summary
Supermetrics is a great entry-level solution for extracting, enriching, and sending data - provided that the data sources and destinations are covered in its selection of integrations.
However, if you need to implement sophisticated transformations, manage data quality, and require more data sources and destinations, Adverity may be the best choice for you.
