<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Like many of the categories we cover at Solutions Review, the one constant always seems to be change. Traditional data integration providers continue to offer legacy capabilities for bulk\/batch, message-oriented movement, and replication. However, the space has split into two distinct categories, one for on-prem tools, and the other for cloud-based Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS).<\/p>\n
Traditional products, like those offered by HVR, IBM, and Adeptia, still reign supreme in large, enterprise settings, but face increased competition from cloud SaaS vendors such as Dell Boomi, Jitterbit, and SnapLogic.\u00a0In an attempt to assist you with what can become a daunting task of selecting the right product, these are the top-28 best data integration software tools for 2019.<\/p>\n
Actian DataConnect allows organizations to integrate with cloud, on-prem, mobile, or IoT data using hundreds of pre-built connectors. DataCloud enables users to connect to any endpoint and automatically expand service reach on-demand. Last April, Actian released Actian X, a hybrid database that combines the Actian Ingres OLTP database with its Vector query engine. The company unveiled Apache Spark support in its Vector in Hadoop tool shortly after. Actian offers a niche selection of data integration and data management tools.<\/p>\n Key Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n Source: Actian<\/p><\/div>\n For an even deeper breakdown of the best data integration tools, consult our vendor comparison map<\/a>.<\/p>\n Adeptia offers a broad spectrum of data integration capabilities in several deployment methods. Its traditional, on-prem product is considered to be one of the best in the market. However, Adeptia\u2019s cloud-based Integration Platform as a Service product has not yet been recognized in the same breath as its competitors. Adeptia\u2019s tools are also lacking in interoperability with other data management solutions. However, what Adeptia does, it does well, and buyers report that the company\u2019s integration tools are attractively priced compared to other providers in the space.<\/p>\n Key Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n Source: Adeptia<\/p><\/div>\n For an even deeper breakdown of the best data integration tools, consult our vendor comparison map<\/a>.<\/p>\n Attunity is one of the few providers in the marketplace to offer above average on-prem and cloud data integration products.

Attunity\u2019s cloud iPaaS product is big data-centric, offering integrations for Hadoop, Spark, and Kafka.<\/p>\n Key Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n Source: Attunity<\/p><\/div>\n For an even deeper breakdown of the best data integration tools, consult our vendor comparison map<\/a>.<\/p>\n Built.io enables anyone to connect any tool through its cloud-based integration service. The company offers solutions for both citizen integrators and IT administrators. The enterprise version features thousands of pre-built integrations, and additional integrations are added on-demand by the vendor. Flow provides an intuitive drag-and-drop user interface, advanced debugging, and a code editor for Node.js custom code. Built.io was included in analyst house Gartner Inc.’s most recent\u00a0 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service.<\/p>\n Key Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n Source: Built.io<\/p><\/div>\n For an even deeper breakdown of the best data integration tools, consult our vendor comparison map<\/a>.<\/p>\n Celigo has targeted the middle enterprise market for NetSuite and Salesforce environments. Its integrator.io platform is ad hoc integrator-centric and developed for line-of-business users. Celigo has focused in on the North American market, and as a result, is not the best choice for organizations outside the continent. The Data Loader features advanced capabilities like dynamic search and calculations that will append, concatenate, or format data during import. 2017 saw Celigo eclipse more than 1,000 customers.<\/p>\n Key Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n Source: Celigo<\/p><\/div>\n For an even deeper breakdown of the best data integration tools, consult our vendor comparison map<\/a>.<\/p>\n Dell Boomi\u2019s portfolio of data and API integration software is available on a common technology platform.

The solution supports the latest Hadoop distributions from Cloudera, Hortonworks, MapR, and Amazon Web Services. However, one of the tool\u2019s shortcomings is that its big data focus takes attention away from other use cases. Pentaho can be deployed on-prem, in the cloud, or via a hybrid model. The tool\u2019s most recent update, Pentaho 8, features Spark and Kafka stream processing improvements and security add-ons.<\/p>\n Key Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n Source: Hitachi Vantara<\/p><\/div>\n For an even deeper breakdown of the best data integration tools, consult our vendor comparison map<\/a>.<\/p>\n HVR<\/a> offers a variety of integration types, including cloud, data lake and real-time integration, database and file replication, and database migration.
