Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) streamlines data integration by consolidating data from multiple sources, turning it into useful formats, and loading it into a centralized location. The world's most successful organizations use ETL to tame big data, produce visual data flows, and garner business-critical analytics. But with so many ETL tools on the market, which one should you choose?

Integrate.io is a cloud-native ETL solution, while Jitterbit and MuleSoft perform ETL functions. We compare these three platforms in this review.

Overview

Jitterbit Overview

Jitterbit is an integration platform that comprises API gateway, API manager, iPaaS, and ETL functions. In an ETL context, it uses parallel processing algorithms to transfer data sets from various sources to data warehouses and relational database systems. It has cloud-based functionality.  

Developers use Jitterbit to code complicated ETL processes. But there are more than 100 pre-built transformations and native connectors for simpler data pipelines. Jitterbit has been around, in one form or another, since 2003.

MuleSoft Overview

MuleSoft serves as an iPaaS platform first and foremost but offers ETL functionalities for organizations that want to move, clean, and analyze data effectively. In an ETL context, MuleSoft moves data between locations with pre-built connectors via its Anypoint Exchange marketplace. 

While users might prefer a platform that focuses exclusively on ETL, MuleSoft has various tools that connect to data sources, extract/transfer data, and load data to a final destination. Users then identify data trends and make time-critical business decisions. 

It should be noted that, though Salesforce owns MuleSoft, they are not the only ETL tool Salesforce accommodates.

Pricing

 Jitterbit

Jitterbit doesn't publish its prices online, making a like-for-like comparison difficult. 

  • There are three pricing tiers (Standard, Professional, and Enterprise). 
  • Users pay for all Jitterbit services (not just ETL tools), which could work out more expensive. 
  • Free support for all users.
  • Different response times depend on the pricing tier. (Jitterbit responds to Enterprise customers faster than Standard customers, for example.)

MuleSoft

Like Jitterbit, MuleSoft doesn't publish its prices online. However, we do know that it has two pricing tiers: Community (Kernel) and Enterprise. 

Integrate.io

Integrate.io has a flat-rate pricing structure that charges users based on the number of connectors, not by data volume or lines of data. 

  • No hidden costs. 
  • Same price every month. 
  • Free support for all customers regardless of the number of connectors or company size.

Final Thoughts on Jitterbit vs. MuleSoft vs. Integrate.io

While Integrate.io focuses on ETL, Jitterbit and MuleSoft are "all-in-one" platforms offering different data integration services. As a result, Jitterbit and MuleSoft could work out more expensive. Plus, there are different skill-level expectations. Integrate.io exists in a no-code environment, but Jitterbit and MuleSoft require some data engineering experience. 

Integrate.io is an ETL solution that requires no code, offering all customers free support with the same response times. Contact our support team to schedule a demo and get a 14-day risk-free pilot.
