Etlworks vs. Integrate.io
Enterprise-Ready Integration Without the Limits of Connector-Based Pricing
Low-Code Data Integration, with Very Different Pricing Models
Both Etlworks and Integrate.io deliver strong ETL, ELT, CDC, and data preparation capabilities. Integrate.io focuses on cloud-first data movement with connector-based pricing. Etlworks, however, goes much further — offering more connectors, greater deployment flexibility, broader functionality, and predictable pricing designed for serious, scalable integration.
Why Etlworks Stands Out
Full-Scale Integration, Not Just Data Prep
Integrate.io covers the basics — ETL, ELT, CDC, and data prep — but Etlworks delivers a complete platform for modern integration: full ETL/ELT pipelines, reverse ETL, streaming, B2B/EDI processing, API management, file-based and event-driven workflows, and more.
Broader Connector Coverage
Etlworks connects to over 260 sources and destinations — covering SaaS apps, databases, big data platforms, APIs, message brokers, and IoT devices. Integrate.io supports around 150, primarily targeting cloud warehouses and databases, which can limit flexibility as your needs grow.
Predictable, Transparent Pricing
Integrate.io’s connector-based pricing model can create hidden costs as projects expand. Etlworks offers clear, fixed-tier pricing starting at $300 per month — providing full access to the platform without worrying about connector counts or surprise fees.
Deployment Flexibility Across Cloud and On-Premise
While Integrate.io is built purely for the cloud, Etlworks offers true hybrid deployment options, supporting both cloud-native and on-premise data environments — ideal for organizations with complex security, compliance, or infrastructure requirements.
More Power, More Flexibility, and Predictable Costs
Integrate.io is a solid cloud-first solution for ETL and CDC. But if you’re looking for a platform that handles broader use cases, scales across hybrid environments, simplifies complex integrations, and delivers more for less, Etlworks is the better choice.
