Data Migration Support

CData Sync: Hybrid Cloud & On-Prem

CData Sync supports 250+ cloud and on-prem data sources and destinations. It can even securely cross the firewall to securely support a modern hybrid data infrastructure that delivers all the agility of the cloud with the security of on-premises data management. Go on-prem-to-cloud, cloud-to-cloud, and cloud-to-on-prem. Wherever you need your data, CData Sync can pipe it there.

Hevo Data: Cloud Only

Hevo Data is a SaaS cloud service designed for cloud data integration for cloud organizations. It does not offer on-prem deployment or on-prem to cloud data pipelines. As a result, it's popular for pure cloud use cases but not for hybrid cloud and on-prem to cloud migrations and pipelines.

Customizability

CData Sync

CData Sync provides an admin REST API for developers at every tier. Users can programmatically create & manage data pipelines and carry out every capability CData Sync offers through the API. Developers can also extend Sync by adding their own custom connectors.

Hevo Data

Similar to CData, Hevo Data provides a REST API for administration as well as the ability to create custom connectors for its platform.
