I have heard that swimming is the ultimate cardio exercise, but I have rowed on Concept2 rowing machines and it definitely increased my heart rate, so I am wondering if rowing is somehow better overall?

One is not any better over the other. They both are good for your cardio workouts. Get it upto the range for your age. See the diagram in your club or consult your fitness instructor.
Do you mean increased your heart rate even after you stopped exercising? because that’s bad, exercise is supposed to make your heart stronger thus decrease your heart rate…
Anyways I think swimming would be better
