Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) Products

There is wide range of Products available in this category.
There is an overlap with other categories, such as Data Cleansing, and most of these Products occupy an expensive niche. They are all fighting a war of attrition against Microsoft's DTS (qv), and risking obsolescence sooner or later.
If you have any comments, experiences or suggestions, please let me know.
