Overview
Weld is a unified ELT and data activation platform that combines ingestion, modeling, transformations, orchestration, lineage, and reverse ETL in a single SaaS interface. With premium in-house–built connectors, an intuitive UI, and near real-time syncs, Weld enables both technical and non-technical users to create and manage data workflows efficiently. Weld also includes an AI assistant to support SQL modeling, generate transformations, and streamline repetitive tasks. Teams can ingest data from a wide range of sources—including marketing platforms, CRMs, databases, Google Sheets, Excel, and APIs—into their cloud data warehouse and activate it back into business tools.
Lineage, orchestration, and workflow features included by default

Overview
Funnel is a cloud-based marketing data hub designed to centralize, organize, and standardize marketing and advertising data. It allows teams to collect data from hundreds of marketing platforms and deliver it to destinations like BigQuery, Snowflake, Looker Studio, dashboards, and spreadsheets. Funnel is built for non-technical users and focuses specifically on marketing analytics use cases.
User-friendly interface for marketing teams
Requires minimal technical expertise
Large library of marketing connectors
Strong onboarding and customer training
Good for centralizing marketing data in one place
Pricing can be expensive and difficult to predict
Limited to marketing-specific use cases
Reporting and analytics capabilities are basic
Less suitable for cross-departmental data needs
Can have a steeper learning curve for more complex setups
A reviewer on G2:
“We use Funnel mostly for ingesting data into BigQuery. Using the native connectors is significantly more efficient than building a direct connection to the relevant APIs, particularly for Facebook / Meta data.”
“Recently the price of the platform has gone up. Although it is still priced competitively vs its alternatives.”
Overview
SnapLogic is an Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) that supports ETL, ELT, application integration, and API management using its visual Snap-based architecture. It includes 500+ pre-built Snap connectors for SaaS applications, databases, on-prem systems, and big data platforms. Pipelines are designed in a drag-and-drop interface (Snap Studio) and run on a fully managed, autoscaling cloud environment. SnapLogic also provides AI-assisted pipeline building through Iris, its AI recommendation engine.
500+ Snap connectors covering SaaS, databases, big data, and on-prem sources.
Visual pipeline designer (Snap Studio) with AI-driven suggestions (Iris) for mappings and transformations.
Serverless execution with autoscaling and multi-cloud support (AWS, Azure, GCP).
Supports both batch and real-time streaming integrations.
Premium pricing can be costly for smaller organizations.
Designer UI may feel cluttered in very large pipelines, with occasional performance slowdowns.
Limited self-hosted options; primarily a SaaS platform.
Gartner Peer Review:
“Overall I was able to create pipelines required easily to migrate and fill data manually, which helped me a lot and improved my performance.”
“During development random bugs are appearing and there is mismatch with documentation.”
Side-by-side
Weld’s interface is built for clarity and speed, enabling users with varying levels of technical experience to manage data pipelines and models efficiently. Its built-in lineage and orchestration tools provide transparency across workflows.
Funnel provides a clean, intuitive interface designed for marketing teams, making setup straightforward for non-technical users. More complex setups, however, may require additional learning.
SnapLogic’s Snap Studio offers a visual, drag-and-drop experience for building pipelines, with Iris AI suggesting mappings and transformations. While intuitive for most workflows, very large pipelines may feel crowded or slower to navigate.

Side-by-side
Weld offers a simple and predictable pricing model starting at $79 for 5 million active rows. This flat, usage-transparent structure makes budgeting straightforward for small and medium-sized teams.
The flexpoints pricing model can be difficult to predict and becomes expensive as data volumes increase, which may pose challenges for smaller businesses.
SnapLogic typically starts at around $50k per year for standard usage. Its pricing model based on connectors, features, and usage is aimed at mid-market and enterprise teams rather than smaller organizations.

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.
Funnel works well for marketing workflows but lacks the flexibility needed for wider data engineering use cases, cross-team pipelines, or advanced customization.
SnapLogic supports custom Snaps built in JavaScript or Python, parameterized pipelines, REST-triggered executions, and CI/CD integration. As a SaaS-only offering, it lacks fully self-hosted runtime options but provides strong extensibility within its cloud environment.

“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.”
