As a result its tool is very user-friendly compared to the typical interfaces and products available for this type of activity. I hope you find time to try it out.

I know there are ways to unpackage it and install on a Debian-based distro but why throw up barriers? Used Pentaho Data Integration (Kettle) instead. It has its warts but install isn't one of them.

It is used for system to system integration scenarios from writing complete business integration processes that integrate back-end systems supporting say an order to cash process, consuming web services to leverage investments is SOAs to ETL processes for supporting data warehouses. In addition, any integration process can be exposed as a service. Finally, Jitterbit provides a complete environment and is used by technical business analysts as well as developers. It uses graphical constructs to built an integration project vs. only scripting. Simpler integration scenarios should not require any scripting. I hope you find time to try it out.

We have been working with Jitterbit for awhile now, their customer base is the is NASA, Continental Airlines, Dow Jones, and a lot more.
