User-friendly and accessible for anyone with computer knowledge and logical thinking
There is room for improvement in the solution's visualization tool. Currently, it provides basic reports and the ability to create graphs and dashboards, but I'm looking forward to more robust analytics. The plan is to enhance this feature in 2024, around Q2 or Q3, which would save us from relying on external tools like Power BI for insights.

Data team has transformed diverse environmental streams and now delivers real-time insights
The best thing that we've seen coming out of Stitch is the Talend and Qlik relationship becoming more of a single entity rather than two entities. A couple of years ago there was a distinction between Stitch and Qlik. The biggest challenge when we were dealing with both was that we felt like we were dealing with two different companies. They are quickly merging the two different entities into a single one, and by around the end of this year, they're planning to basically consolidate everything. Until then, it does get a little bit complicated when we have Qlik and Stitch components together. It's not quite exactly one solution. That's probably the biggest negative at the moment. Each month we're seeing improvements in the cloud platform, and they're coming out with capabilities that we haven't even thought about that are going to make our lives easier. Probably the biggest negative they have is they're doing so much good stuff, but we don't know about it. It just appears and then we figure it out ourselves, but the communication of changes could be improved. However, the positives are that they're changing so much at the moment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Back in the day, we could only get reports and analyze what happened after the fact, but today now we can generate real-time insights. Transformation Manager feeds your data science projects. We generate models and then give them to the clients, so they can come up with real-time predictions and recommendations in addition to reporting."
"It is among the best, even if not widely known."
"It is a reliable solution."
"Transformation Manager is the backbone of every data pipeline these days because the solution has been on the market for 20 to 30 years, and we use it for various industries, including financial services, manufacturing, healthcare, etc."
"Stitch saved a lot of time, gave more options, and made it very quick and easy to build a UI."
"Stitch's best features include reporting and real-time insights, and what stands out to me is the speed, accuracy, and creativity in providing state-of-the-art features, leading to better insights, quicker time to market, and facilitating decisions, which I find quite impressive."
"Even though you are paying a huge amount, the quality and the time it takes to process big data is definitely lesser."
"The setup process for Stitch was pretty easy, with a plug and play approach where the data is immediately available."
"The best features Stitch offers are that I can copy the designs directly to Figma, which has helped my team and me tremendously because in the beginning we had to design the application from scratch, but now we can get inspirations from Stitch and copy directly from Stitch to shorten our time."
"After setting up Stitch, that pipeline maintenance dropped down to practically zero, cutting our data integration and engineering workload by at least eighty to ninety percent and allowing us to get data into our dashboards in real time instead of waiting days for manual updates."
"Stitch has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to create MVPs quickly."
"We've got a project at the moment that we estimated the integration was going to be around $200,000 to $300,000, and we've been able to achieve the integration for less than a tenth of that, doing it in-house using Stitch."
 

Cons

"Transformation Manager reporting could be better. There are better options for reporting tools these days. We use Microsoft BI sometimes, but Tableau is becoming too expensive. Microsoft BI's visualization features are maturing."
"There is room for improvement in the solution's visualization tool."
"They should build a functional architecture based on queuing."
"We get decent support. It's okay but not great."
"To be frank enough, I will say right now that since we are not using it, they are too expensive."
"Stitch can be improved by being able to connect the design system to it, and being able to design any components from that design system would be the best improvement."
"The customer support of Stitch is horrible."
"The conversion to Figma is not effective."
"My experience with customer support for Stitch has been very bad."
"If there is something Stitch can improve, I would say it is the pricing structure."
"Stitch should definitely provide more extractors than it does now and provide the ability for teams to integrate their own extractors."
"Until then, it does get a little bit complicated when we have Qlik and Stitch components together."
