CData’s award-winning data pipeline software is
now available as a cloud platform to address market demand for
better price performance in SaaS integration
CData Software, a leading provider of data connectivity
solutions, today introduced CData Sync Cloud, a new
software-as-a-service (SaaS) tool in the ETL/ELT market. Sync Cloud
is a CData-hosted ETL/ELT solution that brings all the benefits of
CData Sync to the cloud market.
Sync is built on the foundation of 300+ standardized data
drivers, which companies like Google and Salesforce embed within
their products to power data integrations for their customers. Due
to this underlying connectivity architecture, Sync offers deep
functionality across sources and destinations like Workday, as well
as broad connectivity to more niche data sources like Odoo ERP.
Privacy and security are also at the core of Sync Cloud.
Customer data remains segregated from that of others, safeguarded
by enterprise-grade, end-to-end encryption to ensure it never gets
exposed to CData.
With the introduction of Sync Cloud, CData is offering a new
approach to cloud ETL pricing models. Data pipeline tools have
traditionally lacked scalable pricing options, with most ETL
vendors offering volume-based pricing in which customer costs rise
in tandem with an increased number of data rows replicated. This
pricing structure often makes it difficult for customers to
estimate their future costs. Often, the ballooning costs become
untenable.
Anthony Neu, Senior Manager of Data Analytics at Manhattan
Associates, encountered these scalability challenges with his
previous data pipeline vendor before switching to CData Sync.
“Before migrating to CData Sync, I was tired of burning through
credits for data that I didn’t want or need,” Neu said. “I got
stressed with the volume pricing around what the units are and when
they are used. It was very easy to make a mistake and, in turn,
receive a large bill. We have something now that is very cost
effective with CData.”
Sync Cloud charges users based on the number of data connections
they require, resulting in inherently predictable and scalable data
replication. With a single fixed-price license purchase, customers
maintain cost consistency throughout their contract duration,
irrespective of the volume of data rows replicated.
“We are excited to bring our enterprise-grade ETL/ELT product,
used by over 500 customers, to the cloud,” said Manish Patel, CData
Chief Product Officer. “Because CData’s core focus is data
connectivity, we are uniquely positioned to provide unmatched
depth, breadth, and quality of connection with a supporting
business model designed to scale with our customers’ usage –
instead of punish them for it.”
The launch of Sync Cloud builds on Sync’s overall momentum in
the past year. Last November, Sync earned Strong Performer
recognition in The Forrester Wave™: Cloud Data Pipelines, Q4 2023.
Sync received the highest scores in the product roadmap, pricing
flexibility and transparency categories. CData Sync has also
received 4.8 stars from users on Gartner Peer Insights, with 96% of
customers recommending the product.
