Hevo Data review and pricing

India-headquartered managed ELT with simpler pricing and a mid-market focus.

By Hevo Data · Founded 2017 · Bangalore, India · private

Hevo Data is a managed ELT platform headquartered in Bangalore, India, founded 2017, with a $30M Series B raised in June 2022 led by Sequoia Capital India. The product covers 150+ pre-built connectors with a focus on event-based pricing rather than MAR or credits. Strengths: simpler pricing model than Fivetran or Airbyte Cloud, strong mid-market positioning, responsive customer support relative to category peers, and a meaningful APAC reference base. Trade-offs: connector breadth and reliability still trail Fivetran for the top sources, enterprise governance features are present but not yet at Informatica or Fivetran Business Critical depth, and brand recognition outside India and SEA remains lower than the Western incumbents.

Best for

Mid-market data teams (50 to 1,000 employees), especially in India, SEA, and the Middle East, that want managed ELT with simpler pricing than Fivetran and are willing to accept slightly narrower connector breadth.

Worst for

Large enterprises with strict governance requirements (Fivetran Business Critical or Informatica IICS better), engineering-led teams wanting self-host (Airbyte better), or buyers needing the absolute longest tail of niche connectors (Portable or Airbyte community).

Vendor Trust is scored independently of product quality. A great product from an unfair vendor still earns a low trust score.
