IT Consultant at a tech services company with 201-500 employees
Has automated recurring data flows and improved accuracy in reporting
The best features of Talend Data Integration are its rich set of components that let you connect to almost any data design intuitive and its strong automation and scheduling capabilities. The TMap component is especially valuable because it allows flexible transformation, joins, and filtering in a single place. I also rely a lot on context variables to manage different environments like Dev, Test, and production, without changing the code. The error handling and logging tools are very helpful for monitoring and troubleshooting, which makes the workflow more reliable. Talend Data Integration has helped our company by automating and standardizing data processes. Before, many of these tasks were done manually, which took more time and often led to errors. With Talend Data Integration, we built automated pipelines that extract, clean, and load data consistently. This not only saves hours of manual effort, but also improves the accuracy and reliability of data. As a result, business teams had faster access to trustworthy information for reporting and decision making, which directly improved efficiency and productivity. Talend Data Integration has had a measurable impact on our organization. By automating daily data loading processes, we reduced manual effort by around three or four hours per day, which saved roughly 60 to 80 hours per month. We also improved data accuracy. Error rates dropped by more than 70% because validation rules were built into the jobs. In addition, reporting teams now receive fresh data at least 50% faster, which means they can make decisions earlier and with more confidence. Overall, Talend Data Integration has increased both efficiency and reliability in our data workflows.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Postal sorting to the best and lowest postal rates."
"This software is a must have for my company offerings."
"It fulfills the USPS requirements for mailings​."
"We are still in the process of evaluating them, but I love the way things look in Talend, and I'm all for Talend."
"The product's integration with PostgreSQL and Jira has been helpful for us. Its performance is good. However, we do not use it for large data sets."
"Talend Data Integration has positively impacted my organization because it is used for master management data, which I think most other components lack, but Talend Data Integration has that capability for using master management data as standard data."
"Overall, from 2017 to 2020, we have almost saved around 140,000 to 160,000 hours, which is only with respect to the data."
"The solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage."
"tLogRows are also great for finding bad data."
"Better control and flexibility to add/custom define features, to tailor to your needs by modifying its Java generated code."
"The solution is customizable."
 

Cons

"​I use another program for deduping files. I am not comfortable with the way BCC deduping runs when deduping by full name and address.​"
"Account for Java developers/custom development efforts apart from DQ functional/technical expertise, to use Talend DQ product to the fullest."
"Talend Data Integration can be improved by reducing the license cost, as it is a bit high compared to other tools, which can be a burden for small-scale companies wanting to buy a license."
"Finding assistance with issues can be spotty. With Python, there are literally millions of open source answers which are recent and apply to the version that we are using."
"There are no natural connections for some of the applications that I use more regularly."
"Qlik Talend Cloud has impacted my organization by increasing the license cost, leading many companies to decide to decommission Talend, as they find the cost too high."
"I think they should drive toward AI and machine learning. They could include a machine-learning algorithm for the deduplication."
"There are no concurrent licenses, they only have seat licenses on cloud. That's the whole challenge. For example, if in any project your headcount increases or decreases, you do not have that concurrence and you have a seat license, you run into challenges because you have to procure a few more licenses for getting the job done."
"NullPointerExceptions are going to be the death of me and are a big reason for our transition away from Talend. One day, it is fine with a 1000 blank rows, then the next day, it will find one blank cell and it breaks down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I would advise to first take a look and at the Open Studio edition. Figure out what you need and purchase the appropriate license."
"The product pricing is considered very good, especially compared to other data integration tools in the market."
"The price of the Talend Data Management Platform is reasonable. The other competing solutions are priced high. Gartner Magic Quadrant identified other solutions, such as Informatica, that are far more expensive."
"The pricing is a little higher than what I had expected, but it's comparable with I-PASS competitors."
"It's a subscription-based platform, we renew it every year."
"The licensing cost is about 40,000 Euros a year."
"The tool is cheap."
"I have been using the open-source version."
