Etlworks vs. SnapLogic

Enterprise-Grade Integration, Without the Enterprise-Grade Cost

Side-by-side comparison

Two Powerful Platforms for Enterprise Integration

Etlworks and SnapLogic both offer robust ETL, ELT, API management, and real-time integration capabilities. Both platforms are designed to support complex, enterprise-scale data environments across cloud, on-premise, and hybrid deployments.

Why Etlworks Stands Out

Enterprise Power Without the Enterprise Price

Etlworks offers a full suite of enterprise-grade ETL, CDC, streaming, and API integration starting at just $300 per month — significantly lower than SnapLogic’s typical starting point of $2,500+. With predictable, transparent pricing, Etlworks delivers a stronger ROI for teams of all sizes.

Simplified Integration for Faster Results

While SnapLogic offers a rich set of features, building advanced pipelines often requires more specialized skills. Etlworks streamlines complex tasks like wildcard object processing, making it easier to build powerful data flows without deep technical expertise — helping teams move faster with less overhead.

Comparable Connectivity Without Extra Costs

Etlworks connects to over 260 sources and destinations, including SaaS apps, big data platforms, IoT brokers, and traditional databases — all included without expensive add-ons. SnapLogic offers broad connectivity as well, but reaching into niche systems may require additional investments or customization.

Freedom to Start, Scale, and Grow

Both Etlworks and SnapLogic offer self-service onboarding, but Etlworks gives you true flexibility: fast sign-up, no mandatory sales conversations, and no formal contracts required. You pay only for what you need, with the freedom to scale up or down at your own pace.

Enterprise-Grade ETL, Designed for Simplicity and Value

Etlworks and SnapLogic both bring powerful integration capabilities to the table — but Etlworks delivers them with simpler workflows, faster time to value, and a dramatically lower total cost of ownership. Whether you’re moving data between systems, building real-time pipelines, or managing APIs, Etlworks helps you do it faster, easier, and for far less.
