Featured Reviews

Aditi Bhardwaj - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides an ease of access and an automated mapping feature
We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records. Above that, we need to look for alternative solutions. They could provide automated transformation or mapping features around 10 to 15 independent data objects. We could have a default mark or limit of free usage for standard objects. It will be helpful. Additionally, we can have more integrations with large data volumes as we need a lot of exercises to handle the files in case of complex sites.
Jason Hale - PeerSpot reviewer
Comprehensive documentation and smooth collaboration have transformed our development process
There are always areas for improvement. They have actually in the last 12 months done a lot of work on the UI. If you had contacted me at Christmas last year, the UI was really dated. Now, they have not finished cleaning it up or bringing it into a new flash version. But because it has such a simple design, it is actually so easy to use. They have taken a lot of the complexity out of it, so you just click on a button and it does it all for you. I think one weakness, which I might have worked around today, is spatial data. But that might change by Monday. That is again because there is so much functionality, actually the real weakness is they have got too much functionality, if that is a weakness. Because there are 10 ways to do everything, and each way has its own pros and cons, and you really have to make your decision about which way to implement it. When you have five developers or three developers doing something, it is very easy for three people to do the same thing three different ways. On the flip side, that is one of its amazing strengths, as you are not locked into a very rigid way of doing something. It means that a lot of our custom environments are fantastic because we can just plug it in a slightly different way. But because it does so much, it is a lot to get your head around the whole thing. We tend to focus on the small stuff that we are adding value to right now.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"DataLoader is cost-effective since it is free."
"I find DataLoader's ability to easily integrate with external keys valuable, which is a bit more challenging with DBM."
"he product’s most valuable feature is ease of access."
"The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand."
"The solution is connected to various phones. It retrieves the configuration from the system."
"Overall, the management and running environment are very stable, and I would rate it an eight out of ten."
"We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."
"I like the way that you can use the context variables, and how you can work those context variables to give you values and settings for every development environment, such as PROD, TEST, and DEV."
"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."
"I like everything about this product, but the biggest thing is the ease of use."
"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."
 

Cons

"Dataloader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions. Additionally, at times it can be slow, and when integrating DBM, we find it more complex than Dataloader."
"DataLoader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions."
"We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records."
"I think they should drive toward AI and machine learning. They could include a machine-learning algorithm for the deduplication."
"I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself."
"The documentation from version to version could be more accurate."
"The stability is good, but the performance is slower when I work on a huge amount of data."
"Data management could also encompass APIs and real-time streaming data integration."
"I've had some issues with bugs causing crashes, especially when making changes to the system or with the monthly upgrades to Studio they've introduced."
"The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging."
"We'd like to see more connectors it the future."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is inexpensive and economical."
"The pricing is a little higher than what I had expected, but it's comparable with I-PASS competitors."
"The licensing cost is about 40,000 Euros a year."
"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 price is on a per-user basis. It's a little more expensive than other tools. There aren't any additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"License renewal is on a yearly basis."
"The solution's pricing is very reasonable and half the cost of Informatica."
"The tool is cheap."
