How efficient to use Mule as ETL tool rather than using different ETL tools like Informatica or Talend. It would better if you have any comparison matrix among them.
Mule can work as an ETL layer, but it’s more of an integration runtime than a dedicated data pipeline tool. It handles APIs and real-time flows well, but bulk transformations or heavy batch jobs tend to feel smoother in tools like Informatica or Talend.
If your workloads are mostly Salesforce to other systems with moderate volumes, Mule is fine. When I needed simpler scheduled syncs without the overhead, I used Skyvia (https://skyvia.com/connectors/salesforce) since it was faster to set up and cheaper to maintain compared to full ETL platforms.
