hotglue vs. Prismatic
Using a workflow builder means...
you have no control over building flexible integrations for customers
Prismatic’s workflow builder is great
🤓
Easy drag-and-drop functionality
Perfect for trigger based integrations
But it falls apart when you try to scale
💀
Inflexible by design. You’re limited by low-code workflow actions
Struggles with large data volume
“hotglue has transformed data integration into a hassle-free process, reducing the time needed to implement new customer integrations by 90%.”

Why product teams choose hotglue over Prismatic
Designed for Developers
“Dev Friendly” ≠ Developer-First Flexibility:
hotglue's code-first approach offers more flexibility to developers who need to support advanced use cases. Need to build custom Salesforce logic to handle edge cases? No problem.
Prismatic advertises itself as dev-friendly, but their workflow builder is a predefined set of actions, steps, and templates, which restricts developers' ability to implement highly specific complex logic.

Scalability
Architecture built to scale
hotglue’s ETL-based architecture makes dealing with large historical data syncs or writing in bulk dead simple. Set up real-time triggers, schedule batch jobs, or configure programmatic logic into your workflows.
Prismatic struggles with handling large volumes of data. Their workflow builder is best for trigger-based logic, handling simple use cases and low volumes of data.

Vendor Lock-In and Limited Portability
Prismatic’s workflow builder is proprietary, meaning integrations are tightly coupled with their platform. This means you can’t migrate workflows to another system or tool, leading to vendor lock-in.
hotglue does not lock you in by gating your integrations. All connectors are open-source, meaning whatever integrations you build can be downloaded and repurposed if needed.

Prismatic
Prismatic's no-code/low-code connectors limit custom integration capabilities
Prismatic is great for small trigger-based data syncs, but falls short when processing large volumes of data
