Etlworks vs. Hevo Data

Enterprise-Grade Data Integration Without Compromise

Side-by-side comparison

Built for the Modern Data Stack — but Not All Platforms Are Equal

Both Etlworks and Hevo Data are excellent choices for building a modern data stack, focusing on easy, reliable data sync and load into cloud warehouses. Pricing is similar and predictable across both platforms. However, Etlworks goes much further — offering broader integration capabilities, greater flexibility, and even more powerful features to simplify complex data workflows.

Difference

Why Etlworks Stands Out

Beyond Sync — Complete Integration Capabilities

While both platforms excel at data sync and load, Etlworks offers a full enterprise-grade feature set: ETL, ELT, reverse ETL, CDC, real-time streaming, API management, B2B/EDI integration, and on-premise deployments — without needing additional tools or services.

Powerful Yet Simpler for Complex Workflows

Hevo Data is user-friendly, but Etlworks takes usability even further — enabling easy configuration of complex scenarios like wildcard-based processing, hybrid deployments, and multi-format ingestion. Teams can achieve more, faster, with fewer technical hurdles.

Broader Connectivity and Streaming Support

Etlworks supports more than 260 connectors out of the box, including databases, filesystems, APIs, message brokers, and IoT platforms. While Hevo offers good coverage, Etlworks brings deeper connectivity and native support for complex streaming platforms like Kafka, Kinesis, and ActiveMQ.

Full Control, Predictable Pricing

Both Etlworks and Hevo Data offer predictable, fixed-tier pricing. But with Etlworks, you also get higher cost transparency and flexibility, ensuring you maximize the value of every dollar spent as your needs scale.

Modern Data Integration That Scales With You

Both Etlworks and Hevo Data provide a strong foundation for modern data stacks. But Etlworks takes it to the next level — offering broader capabilities, easier handling of complex scenarios, greater flexibility, and unmatched integration depth.
