Stitch Data alternative
Migrating off Stitch Data?
Discover how SourceMedium compares as an alternative to Stitch Data for ecommerce analytics, attribution, and data management.
Common Stitch Data pain points
Why teams look for a Stitch Data alternative.
Product is being sunset
The Stitch homepage redirects to Qlik's signup page. No new features or connectors since Winter 2023. Existing users face forced migration to a completely different platform.
Pipelines will degrade
Source APIs from Shopify, Meta, Google Ads, and others change multiple times per year. With no maintenance, Stitch pipelines will break progressively as APIs evolve.
Migration cost is the real expense
Migrating off Stitch means re-evaluating your entire ELT layer — and the warehouse, transformation, and BI tools that depended on it. This is a forced rebuild, not a simple swap.
How SourceMedium compares to Stitch Data
A feature-by-feature comparison across the capabilities that matter most.
| Feature | ||
|---|---|---|
| Integrations & Data Sources | Commerce, ads, email, subscriptions, and ops — reconciled daily with 2,500+ automated quality checks | Soft sunset — homepage redirects to Qlik signup, no new connectors since Winter 2023 |
| Data Freshness | Reconciled daily across all sources with full historical backfill — every metric traceable to its source | Existing pipelines still run, but no maintenance or updates to source API changes |
| Attribution Models | Server-side multi-touch attribution — no new pixels, works with your existing tracking infrastructure | Not included — Stitch was ELT-only, no analytics of any kind |
| Cohort / CLTV | 20 pre-built analytics modules including LTV, repurchase, retention, and new customer analysis — ready to use on day one | Not included — Stitch moved data, it didn't analyze it |
| Dashboards & Visualization | Pre-built dashboards, forkable Looker Studio templates, and an AI analyst that answers questions with auditable SQL | Not included — required a separate BI tool |
| Custom Metrics | Define a metric once, use it everywhere — dashboards, SQL, and AI always return the same answer | Not included — required dbt or custom SQL on a separate warehouse |
| SQL / Export / API Access | Managed BigQuery warehouse with included compute and unlimited storage — any tool that supports BigQuery connects natively | Loaded into your warehouse — but Stitch is no longer maintained |
| Support & Success | Dedicated US-based CSA, included quarterly solution hours, and structured roadmapping | Ticket-based support; dedicated engineering resources required |

Migrating off Stitch Data?
If Stitch's sunset is forcing a migration, you have two paths: replace one tool in the chain, or replace the chain itself.
What to look for when migrating off Stitch
A platform, not another ELT tool. Replacing Stitch with Fivetran or Airbyte means you still need a warehouse, dbt, a BI tool, reverse ETL, and engineering time. You're rebuilding the same architecture with different logos.
Vendor durability. Stitch's acquisition chain (Talend → Qlik) is a cautionary tale. Evaluate whether your next platform has the staying power to avoid the same cycle. Ask any vendor: if we leave, what happens to our data, dashboards, and team's work?
Ecommerce analytics included. If you're an ecommerce brand, your next platform should include attribution, LTV, cohort analysis, and dashboards — not require you to build them from scratch again.
How SourceMedium addresses these needs
SourceMedium replaces the entire pipeline that Stitch was part of — connectors, warehouse, transformation, dashboards, attribution, and AI — on a managed BigQuery warehouse with included compute. Open-source Looker Studio templates let you rebuild reporting without starting from zero. Pre-built analytics modules mean you're not spending months recreating the dbt models you had before.
