The Eight Major Players in Enterprise iPaaS, 2019

Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service products are suites of data and application integration capabilities with shared metadata that enable collaboration across different functions. Primary drivers for these solutions include ease of use and productivity advantages that are suitable for the cloud. Your users don’t have to be integration experts to put enterprise iPaaS to use, either. There are both small and large providers that offer software to help these companies with both niche and common challenges, though choosing the vendor(s) that are right for your specific environment can be a daunting task.

The following providers have recently been named leaders in the 2019 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service. The report, which highlights and scores the top products in the industry, features these eight tools as being cornerstones in the space. Each provider’s market share and product portfolios differ, which is what makes them interesting to the wider audience of data consumers. Niche and emerging vendors can only hope to replicate the kind of market presence that these providers have earned over a sustained period of time. Here we provide a brief blurb about each and links to product details so you can learn more.
