Jitterbit - Jack of all Trades, Master of ETL
We have 15 Jitterbit projects in production right now (housing about 5 times as many jobs/operations that run at various times of the day/night) and QA/DEV environments that mirror those projects. Currently, these jobs primarily move business data to and from our Salesforce org. We are currently also looking at Jitterbit's API creation and management capabilities for real-time data needs, but have not put anything info production yet... only QA.
Integrations we currently have (Source/Targets):
Oracle ↔️ Salesforce
SQL ↔️ Salesforce
FTP ↔️ Salesforce
Salesforce ↔️ Salesforce
Local File ↔️ Salesforce (Used in Jitterbit Cloud Dataloader for one time import/exports)
Jitterbit Features we Use: *Including, but not limited to the list below*
Operation Chaining
Email Notifications (success or failure)
Logging (WriteToOperationLog)
Scripting
Operation Chunking
Project Variables for source/target credentials
Conditional Mapping
StringToHex/Base64Decode for creation of varBinary SQL data
Get/Set Last Run Time – for pulling only modified records since last successful run
SQL Target Db Pre-script - Include Null Updates
Temporary Storage (for csv files to use further down Operation chain)
- Logging - totally configurable by the user, you can log any details about your running jobs, online (WriteToOperationLog) or to an email.
- Cloud management environment. Can manage users and/or the running of operations from the website and do not need a client application to do so.
- Client application is full featured and allows for greater control than our last "EDI"-type product we owned.
- Operation-chaining -- a necessity! And it works well.
- Migrating operations from QA to Production work well for initial deployment, however, when migrating an update to an existing job to production, sometimes certain project items are duplicated. This is not the end of the world... the duplicates can be removed, but would be nice if it was not required.
- I have not found a way to trap under-the-covers SOAP errors (for example, when a query you are running against Salesforce takes too long). You get a warning error in the operation log that the job only pulled a "partial" file, but it does not fail.
We use Jitterbit to manage the flow of data between multiple systems. While managed by one department, it synchronizes data and transformations to support processes across multiple departments. Our main objective is to create a clear flow of data, ensure the system of record is that data is accurate and consistent across platforms.
- Ease of use - while being more technical is useful, you don't need to be a developer to use many of JItterbit's capabilities
- Customer Support - we have always had great responsiveness to any questions or issues encountered
- Reliability - Jitterbit has been extremely reliable with no major outages in the recent past
- Integration recipes for more platforms - e.g. JIRA
- Fewer upgrades - there are upgrades every couple of weeks so if you are not using the cloud version, you need to manually "keep up"
We use Jitterbit to sync cloud systems to on-premise systems in a bi-directional way. Specifically, we link Salesforce and Great Plains by integrating Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, and inventory transactions. We also use Jitterbit to connect cloud systems -- specifically, our eCommerce site (Magento and Spree Commerce) with Salesforce around Sales Orders, Shipping Confirmations and Inventory.
- Easy to connect systems without the use of developers
- Provides a single management interface for all integrations
- Highly stable and reliable
- Some of the more advanced transformation possibilities aren't exactly clear without a lot of digging. Very basic connections (e.g. map this field to this field) along with basic transformation scripts (e.g. multiply X * Y) are super easy. But I know there are a ton more features and functionality that I feel is somewhat buried in the product

Does the job!
We have been using Jitterbit for a few years now and it's a well-designed product. We use it to integrate Banner with other auxiliary systems.
- It has made integrating our systems easier
- The customer service is great.
- I would like to see some enhancements such as better logging capabilities and version control.

Jitterbit is a huge timesaver
I use Jitterbit primarily for the data loading capabilities into Salesforce. Its ability to schedule jobs and store multiple logins and connections has been the big time saver for me and my department. It also allows you to easily store the connections to the files and extracts that you use frequently to make repeatable interactions even easier.
- Using Jitterbit with multiple Salesforce orgs. If you have to load/query into more than one org, the ability to save your connection information and easily switch between connections is a huge time saver. You can also access the same files for multiple orgs as needed.
- It took a little while to get used to remapping fields. Once you get the hang of the refreshing and remapping it works very well, but there was a bit of a learning curve to it.
- Some of the UI interactions aren't super intuitive. Closing tabs or getting to the right one can be a little difficult at times.
We have always used Informatica for our data integrations—first the on-prem version for many years and recently branching out into the Cloud version as we began our journey into a Salesforce rollout. It became clear to us IICS was not the right tool for the job with Salesforce or any of our SaaS integrations, so we experimented with Mulesoft and Jitterbit. Over the last year, we have become mostly a Mulesoft shop now, with some of our smaller and less supported apps still leveraging Jitterbit. I would say we are 20% Informatica Power Center, 60% Mulesoft and 20% Jitterbit. Currently, Jitterbit is only used for the smallest portion of our Salesforce integrations, shuttling data back and forth between our internal legacy CRM system and the external Salesforce cloud.
- Some of the pieces we wanted to bring into Salesforce were quite complex, but Jitterbit handled it easily. It’s like it learns from past experiences and you benefit from someone, somewhere having gone through this before.
- Easy to set up and get going from the start. It was only a few minutes after going through the set-up process that we were able to migrate data over from our internal system to the cloud.
- Planning ahead for some of our AI-driven analytics, I think Jitterbit should be able to handle those well, it’s got a nice interface that walks us through what we need, as long as you are starting from a position of knowledge before attempting it.
- There is a bit of a different look and feel to Jitterbit than the other ETL packages we were used to. Not bad different, but took just a little getting used to.
- Pricing was higher than some of the other ETL tools we looked at, and we could not really understand why. It has the same ups and downs that any other tool has, so it wasn’t a complete package to give you a one-stop-shop, so we could not see why you would pay more for the tool over others in its class.
- The connections were a little less than spectacular when comparing against Mulesoft. Sometimes you need a little more flexibility and we found it harder to be flexible with Jitterbit than other tools.
We use Jitterbit to integrate data between our payroll system, HR Pyramid/PRISM HR, and Salesforce to maintain contact records, accounts records, prospect records, and a few custom objects like benefit records. This is currently a one-way feed into Salesforce, but we are investigating using it to transfer data out from Salesforce to third-party insurance carriers, vendors, and our payroll system. It was originally set up by a consulting firm that helped stand up Salesforce. The UI is extremely user-friendly so that when we need to modify field mappings I can go in as a superuser/admin and confidently make the changes. This is a great program since it's free and has a fairly low learning curve. I'd recommend it for small to medium-sized companies that have limited resources and budget restrictions.
- UI is super easy to understand with a low learning curve so admins can figure it out and maintain it without breaking anything.
- It's FREE! There's a paid version too but I like that you can use most of the features for free and they're not pushy with buying.
- There's a great user community that you can google and ask any questions. Most problems I've encountered have been posted and answered already.
- It's not very easy to create backups of your field mappings so if you break something you can't just "rewind" the clock and unbreak it. The paid version offers a backup feature but even that is not super user-friendly.
- Larger companies probably don't have much use for this. I'm at a much larger company now and we handle such system integrations with more advanced tools.
- Sometimes we've had downtime from Jitterbit just due to the nature that it has to be hosted on a remote server. Our server was aging and had down times which affected Jitterbit.

Jitterbit for Data Loading
We are using Jitterbit to import external data sources into Salesforce. We also use it to move data from one Salesforce org to another. This has helped create a more streamlined data integration process. It has also allowed us to set up transformations within our data sources. Another use instance is picking up files from our sftp site to prevent manual intervention.
- Data Transformation - updating multiple sources to use our data dictionary
- Picking up files from our sftp site - removes manual intervention
- Move data from one org to another through Salesforce
- It was difficult to figure out how to export file sources
- We have to pay per integration site so that can be costly if we are using it for multiple sources
- Some of the icons are difficult to determine their functionality

Jitterbit from Manual to Automatic
It is being used by out Engineering department to push data from Fusion Life Cycle to NetSuite.
- Automating the push of data has been a Godsend -- We were doing this entire process manually
- Adding or making a edit has been a fairly easy process
- The time it has saved us allowed us to not hire another person
- Would be nice to see more examples how to do some things -- Would like to see how to go from NetSuite Data base to Excel.

Great solution for salesforce admin
We use it for Salesforce [administration] to try and import/update/amend data en mass.
- Viewing data mappings
- Having lists of historic maps
- Getting granular in the way you update records
- It can't handle some characters like : ; ) etc., in the field name which is really annoying as you don't realise it until you try to run the load.
- Sometimes the process can be flaky and just not work for any good reason but that is rare.

Jitterbit Free is a simple import/export tool
The two primary managers and one intern for our CRM use Jitterbit to import and export data. We are using the free version at the moment, but exploring the use of the full enterprise version as an ELT tool.
- Simple imports
- Mass exports
- Importing a subset of records for testing. For example allowing the import of only the first 5 rows of the file.

Jitterbit - Finance Processing
Jitterbit was used to process royalty statements from multiple licensees. And Jitterbit was used to streamline the data from multiple sources into our database.
- It handles different sources very efficiently.
- Programming in Jitterbit and the available plugins is simple and very effective.
- User administration permissions provisioning is easy.
- I would expect more math functions to be added as we had few issues while rounding the numbers.
- Currently I believe the rows are getting processed one by one, it would be beneficial if we could do a bulk insert options into SQL too.

Jittery
We are using Jitterbit to Integrate our ERP (JD Edwards) with our CRM - Salesforce.
- Ease of use.
- Flexibility to code.
- Administration, logging and publishing code.
- It can integrate with DB and other third party apps well, but it would be nice if we could also invoke existing processes / code (Like SSIS etc) from Jitterbit.
- Would be nice if Jitterbit could also implement JD Edwards API to invoke business logic within JDE.
I've been using the Jitterbit data loader for all my Salesforce data needs for about 4 years. It is far superior to the standard Salesforce Apex Data Loader in so many ways. I know many other consultants in my organization and others who use it to manipulate data in Salesforce.
- Preserves mappings so that you don't have to redo them. This was my biggest frustration with Salesforce's Apex Data Loader. I believe they may have added this functionality now but Jitterbit does this well and I'm not interested in switching back.
- Platform independence: I recently had a customer that required consultants to use MacBook Pros. My company laptop is a PC. Since Jitterbit is cloud-based, I was able to create mappings on one computer and execute them on the other.
- Ease of use: Jitterbit is simple to use and has a very intuitive interface. It auto-creates log files so that you can review the results of your data operations.
- One recent complaint is that I kept getting prompted in the application to upgrade but when I clicked the upgrade button I received a cryptic error. It didn't seem to affect the application fortunately. This occurred on both the Mac and PC versions.

Jitterbit Great Middleware
Score 9 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
We are using JitterBit on a number of projects. We use it to load data from a FTP directly into Sales Force these daily file loads give people access to the front end we developed on force.com. We also use JitterBit as a middleware for a different SalesForce projects where we load order data from an Oracle DB back up to Salesforce with all the item and tracking information. And lastly we use JitterBit as a Web Service Endpoint that we call from NetSuite do a transformation and load the data back into Salesforce. Jitterbit has taken out a large layer of development in either Java or .Net and just about anyone can move the data with out writing a line of code. Ok so there is still some basic javascript to write to do more custom things with the data but it is very basic stuff.
- Loading data
- The ability to easily change, map or upsert to and from SalesForce and NetSuite.
- Creating an Endpoint Web Service without writing any code.
- I only see a few drawbacks with Jitterbit but every time I see one they are already in the process of fixing this.
- We ran into an issue where were were doing and If Else loop query in salesforce that was using thousands of API request during the operation and they were already working on a Map Cache for this problem.
- Back when we first started working with JitterBit we had an issue of connecting to NetSuite but since then they have built connectors for NetSuite using their built in WSDLs

Jitterbit 5.3 Review
Score 6 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
We use Jitterbit to connect with and transfer data between certain of our clients' systems with our own SaaS product via web services.
- Jitterbit makes it easy to visualize the process flow of operations that it participates in.
- Once configured correctly Jitterbit runs reliably without much maintenance attention required.
- Jitterbit support has been responsive when we've needed to engage them for assistance.
- Setting up secured connections for web services required tweaking multiple application configuration files and custom code to get the support that we needed.
- The proprietary scripting language is relatively capable for data transformation, but could be improved to handle more complex scenarios. Presently, anything outside it's capability requires a custom Java plugin to be written.
- Jitterbit's mapping tool is fairly powerful, but entering a large amount of field information for data mapping and transformation can be time consuming and cumbersome.
- I feel like the documentation for advanced users is inadequate and I was forced to open support cases to ask questions, for which answers should be available online.
- Our implementations required developer-level skills including a good working knowledge of XML and XML Style Sheets.

Jitterbit - Power Platform for Integration
Score 8 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
We used Jitterbit Standard Edition for our client to integrate two 2 endpoints. One was Salesforce, a SaaS-based CRM system and the other was Sage MAS 200 ERP (formerly MAS 90). Sales Orders are entered to Salesforce and then upon update are sent to Sage MAS 200 ERP as an import process via the Visual Integrator module. We also have bidirectional update of Ship to Addresses , Customer records, and Item records.
- Great for endpoint to endpoint integration where data transformation is an important component of the process.
- Visual nature of the mapping is very good and the general visual layout of the processes employing these mappings is also very good.
- Copying of process and mappings make the integration a lot easier than it would otherwise be.
- Scripting language takes some getting used to depending on your programming background.
- There is a lack of some standard template procedures that could be used to create variations from the template. This would be very beneficial.
- Logging utility needs a re-write since the filtering is not very intuitive and sometimes is not very effective.

Jitterbit connecting ERP and SFDC

Vetted Review
Verified User
We are using Jitterbit to move data from an old legacy ERP system into Salesforce.com. We are currently using it in our sales and marketing department but we are considering using it as well in our HR department to further integrate data between their systems. Because I pull information from an old ERP system, I do have to manually clean the files before import using Jitterbit. It does take a good deal of time and focus to ensure my imports are going as needed. I would like to see an automatic lookup field in Jitterbit for the Salesforce.com record ID. That would make my imports go much more quickly. I really like the field mapping tool. It's very easy to use and to add various rules and filters. It's a good solution for our needs. It's helpful to have some technical savvy before diving in.
- Data Export
- Field Mapping
- Mass Delete
- Salesforce ID lookup too
- Ease of use
- Better error reporting

Jitterbit with Veeva CRM
Score 6 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
We have Veeva which is an application on SFDC which is our CRM system. Jitterbit us used as an application for pulling the data to our data warehouse and pushing our updates/data to the Veeva cloud. It is mostly used in the Pharma Healthcare business of Bayer. We migrated to Veeva from Siebel in Jan 2013 and since then we have been using Jitterbit. I have been supporting Jitterbit since 9 months. We have come across many data related issues along with some process related. I can mention the ones which I faced myself and how i interacted with the Jitterbit Support Team. There are issues with pulling the long/free text fields. Also, there was one scenario where null values were being populated instead the actual value. These are all dbUpdate Plugin related issue. The log which Jitterbit creates is not self sufficient neither self explanatory. I think it could give more detailed log for troubleshooting the issue. If the plugin was updated by the Jitterbit team, it was not properly tested and was provided for us to migrate it to our Production environment and it disturbed the whole environment. I think there should be a process in place for validation and verification of any updates given to the customer.
I did work closely with the Jitterbit support team . They are very helpful and prompt.

Jitterbit was used to automate the ETL engine running across several databases to populate the data warehouse. It integrated very well with the SQL/MYSQL interface and worked seamlessly. It addressed the problem of product integration from various departments and saved company a lot of money as additional manpower was not required. Jitterbit was used only in the IT department.
- Integration to multi platform tools
- Pipelining a complicated workflow
- Messaging and jogging for critical workflows
- GUI
- It needs to have a better API and some example codes
- Sometimes it's pretty slow

We use Salesforce.com extensively, and we have found Jitterbit to be a much easier tool to use than the standard data loader. We use it to mass update all objects in Salesforce (mainly opportunities and accounts) directly from CSV files. Any department that requests data changes in our database technically has use for it, but operations and finance folks are the ones who actually put the program to use. Simply having the object ID gives you the power to automatically update tons of SFDC objects, which saves us a lot of valuable time.
- Mapping spreadsheet columns to object fields is very intuitive and easy to figure out
- Very speedy, considering the amount of information I am inputting. Pushes a list of failures with detailed reasons, which allows me to go back and fix as needed
- I felt extremely comfortable using the software within about 2 days... It was very easy to learn
- Infinitely easier to understand than the stock Salesforce data loader
- Mapping fields could provide a link to explain what the field is in more detail
- Hard to visualize the impact that your mapping will have, might be helpful to load in object IDs and lay out the old value and what the new value stands to be

Rapid Data Integration
Score 8 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
I implemented a data integration project for a client. Jitterbit was used specifically to grab data from all over the world and copy it into a staging database. It had some data transformations, but nothing very complex.
- The time to transfer millions of rows from China or South Africa was remarkable, it was very quick.
- We never dropped rows or lost data.
- It was very easy to pick up and learn how to do a simple data transfer.
- Since I was grabbing data from seven identical systems, I would prefer that I could copy and paste an operation and just change the connection. Instead, I had to remap every transformation I made. Still, it was a time saver to be able to copy it.
- I wish the programming of more complex transformations were less code-based and more GUI-based. Without knowing java syntax it made even some simple transformations difficult.
- It was too easy to overwrite other developers code. A merge feature would have come in handy more than once.
