I totally agree with your first sentence. As a former enterprise data warehouse architect, it's interesting seeing some of the responses. Surprised I'm not seeing more Informatica and SSIS. I'll also say SSIS is a good solution for nearly any data storage platform and is included in a SQL Server license so might be a good, cheap enterprise solution if you already have SQL Server.

+1 for SSIS. Used it extensively in a previous position at a large fortune 500 insurance company

From my experience SSIS suffers mightily from the Write-Once Read Only problem as well as huge manual click-fests when package metadata changes. That and a lack of development from MSFT with obvious direction towards ADF means SSIS is not really great for modern data architecture. If you're a MSFT shop then sure and if you're willing to drop the box-line GUI and move to .NET assembly-based packages even more so, but I've spent enough of my life keeping SSIS running and not going back.
