Stitch is still running for existing customers and its plans are still listed, but its own site points new users to Qlik Talend Cloud, so it is a poor choice for a new project. If you already use Stitch, plan for a possible move, either to Qlik Talend Cloud or to another managed ELT service.
Overview
Stitch is a cloud ELT service that extracts data from databases and SaaS applications and loads it into a data warehouse or lake with little transformation. Its connectors are based on Singer, an open source standard for "taps" (sources) and "targets" (destinations); Stitch runs taps in its own infrastructure and offers commercial support for Certified integrations, while Community integrations are maintained by the Singer community. The home page says Stitch connects to 130+ sources.
Talend announced an agreement to acquire Stitch in November 2018, and Qlik acquired Talend in 2023. Stitch's site now describes it as "a Qlik product" that "is now part of Qlik" and promotes Qlik Talend Cloud trials. Destinations listed in the documentation include Amazon Redshift, Amazon S3, Databricks Delta Lake on AWS, Google BigQuery, Azure Synapse Analytics, SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Snowflake, Panoply and data.world.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Published, row-based prices that are simple to compare
- Log-based replication for the main relational databases, MongoDB and DynamoDB
- Singer-based connectors give a familiar open format
Cons
- Qlik is steering new users to Qlik Talend Cloud, which raises long-term product risk
- Smaller destination list than larger managed services
- Lower plans cap destinations and sources (Standard allows 1 destination and 10 Standard sources)
- SaaS only, with no self-hosted or hybrid option
Pricing
Stitch's pricing page (US prices, in USD) lists Standard from USD 100 a month for 5 to 300 million rows a month, 1 destination, 10 Standard sources and 5 users; Advanced at USD 1,500 a month billed annually for 100 million rows, 3 destinations and unlimited Enterprise sources; and Premium at USD 3,000 a month billed annually for 1 billion rows and 5 destinations. The FAQ describes a 14-day free trial, but trial links on the site open Qlik Talend Cloud. International pricing is by request.
Pricing checked on the vendor's official page on 7 November 2026. Prices change; confirm before buying.

Verdict
Stitch remains a simple, row-priced ELT service for its existing users, but its owner is directing new customers to Qlik Talend Cloud. Treat it as a product to migrate from rather than to adopt, and compare Qlik Talend Cloud with other managed and self-hosted services before your next renewal.
