Overview
Keboola is a cloud-based data operations platform that enables teams to ingest, transform, orchestrate, and manage data pipelines end-to-end. It combines no-code components with support for SQL, Python, and R, and offers a large library of pre-built connectors. Keboola also includes governance features such as versioning, audit logs, and project-level cost tracking. While the platform is flexible and powerful, its modular structure and interface can feel complex for simpler ETL needs.
Large number of components and connectors
Supports custom components with an API-first approach
Supports ELT, ETL, and Python/SQL/R-based transformations
Strong governance features such as audit logs and versioning
UI can feel complex and overwhelming for new users
Orchestration features are functional but not as advanced as dedicated orchestration tools
Credit-based pricing can become expensive for growing workloads
Smaller community compared to larger ETL platforms
A user on G2 said::
“What I like most is that Keboola is a very simple tool, allowing even a single person to manage the data pipelines of a large company.”
“I would require better data transferring. I'd appreciate an improved way to move tables from one data bucket to another.”

Side-by-side
Users can model data using SQL enhanced by Weld’s AI assistant, automate workflows, and build custom connectors to any API. This provides strong flexibility for teams that want to tailor integrations and transformations within one platform.
DashThis works well for simple reporting but offers limited customization for more advanced data or reporting needs.
Keboola is highly customizable, offering an API-first design and the ability to build custom components, though this flexibility requires strong knowledge of the platform and its architecture.

CUSTOMER STORIES
“One of the biggest impacts has been unlocking new ways to buy media. Before, we didn’t have the data to back up strategic decisions – now we do.”
“Before Weld, we had to rely on custom Python scripts and manual processes that were time-consuming and error-prone.”
“We’re still a team of three, but we’re often doing far more than the equivalent of three full-time employees. That’s down to how we're able to leverage systems, data, and processes.”
“We’ve always been a KPI-driven company. But we wanted to scale that mindset across every team member, every team, every decision.”
“Before Weld, our data infrastructure was limited and we relied heavily on Excel files and custom Python scripts.”
“Weld has saved us a ton of time, from not having data ready to having a fully functional data warehouse and connectors.”
“By integrating Weld, Amazon S3, and Databricks, Soundboks built a modern data pipeline that automates data ingestion, improves reporting, and provides up-to-date visibility into sales performance”
“We didn’t have a good data setup, so we lacked the business insights we needed. Weld has allowed us to set up a structured data infrastructure and access insights quickly.”
