An easy-to-setup solution with good stability
We use Jitterbit to connect cloud solutions with our on-premises ERP system We connect cloud solutions to our on-premise ERP system easily using Jitterbit. It is its most valuable feature.  The solution's API management capabilities need improvement. We have been using the solution for almost…
Jason Hale - PeerSpot reviewer
Intuitive interface and documentation make it simple to build jobs and APIs and logging helps pinpoint and resolve issues quickly
Talend is doing a lot of work at the moment, and it's not there yet, but the whole platform could be managed in a SaaS-type environment. You still need to have the Studio running on a virtual desktop or a PC. They will get to be able to do the whole thing inside your browser, so you don't need to install anything locally. It's down the track, and it's the nirvana that we were looking for in Boomi. But the biggest challenge they have is that the platform is so focused on the Studio for all of its development. They'll probably get there, but they have such a mature Studio client that it's a huge amount of work to get all of that functionality into a browser or SaaS platform. That's pretty much the biggest flaw with the Talend environment—being reliant on the Studio, which needed to be on a local machine. The only other thing is that you have to integrate into an API gateway. We're in Azure, so we use Microsoft Azure Gateway. It doesn't come with its own gateway, which is another sort of big plus side that we saw in Boomi. Talend isn't quite there yet with the API gateway. Other than that, it's bloody hard to find something because it just seems to be all good.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Jitterbit provides the ability to quickly map data between files and databases."
"Easy integration with Salesforce"
"The Cloud Console for monitoring and troubleshooting data operations."
"It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data."
"We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate."
"The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors)."
"Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features."
"Jitterbit handles the most lines of data in a .csv and loads the quickest of any data loader I have tried."
"Open Studio's best features are that it's user-friendly, even for beginners, and very easy to implement."
"Talend Studio has the ability to use it to ensure data quality."
"There are many architectures: hybrid, cloud, and on-prem."
"The solution has a good balance between automated items and the ability for a developer to integrate and extend what he needs. Other competing tools do not offer the same grade of flexibility when you need to go beyond what is provided by the tool. Talend, on the other hand, allows you to expand very easily."
"It has got so many connectors. It is intuitive and easy to use."
"We're sold on the customization part of the solution."
"We're able to handle large amounts of data with ease."
"This is a user-friendly solution that is easy to use."
 

Cons

"You need to have some development skills or hire a Jitterbit engineer to make changes."
"Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs."
"Sometimes additional connectors are needed."
"Looping through complex data structures can be difficult."
"I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security."
"Its API management capabilities need improvement."
"I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot."
"In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations."
"The only other thing is that you have to integrate into an API gateway. We're in Azure, so we use Microsoft Azure Gateway. It doesn't come with its own gateway, which is another sort of big plus side that we saw in Boomi. Talend isn't quite there yet with the API gateway."
"The pricing could be lower. They should work to make it more affordable."
"We need more components to be more efficient. We use a lot of components, such as Salesforce, and it's not easy to use. There's are minor bugs and it's not easy to use some of the features."
"In version 6.2 we did encounter issues with the job servers and specifically with ESB. Version 6.3 is better but large jobs can cause the MDM server to fall over, requiring a reboot."
"The solution should offer better integration with other products."
"I would say that writing to JSON is kind of a pain. It reads from a JSON file pretty well, but writing to a JSON file is not so great because its components are not good."
"The solution needs more integrations."
"Talend Open Studio has a lot of capabilities, but there is some restriction. For example, if we want to connect to an SAP system, Open Studio cannot do it. We need to go with an enterprise version. Additionally, the monitoring features could improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Each business needs to determine if it is a mission critical aspect."
"I do believe Jitterbit has one of the better pricing and licensing options out there compared to its competitors."
"The solution's cost is mid-ranged compared to other vendors."
"The Jitterbit price is based upon endpoints. They also offer ERP connectors with their Enterprise edition"
"Jitterbit was extremely cost effective for us compared to other options."
"The added bonus is that Jitterbit doesn't charge for any data volume/traffic."
"I am using the open-source version and it is free."
"There are many versions available and one is open-sourced which is free."
"It does the job well for nothing — without cost. That's the advantage of this product."
"We are using the free version of the tool, because the enterprise version is a little expensive."
"Right now, because we're using the open-source version, there's no cost."
"Pricing and licensing are fairly straightforward. It is reasonably priced and managed."
"It is an open-source tool which means it is a free solution."
"Talend Open Studio costs about 11,000 a year."
