Enables user-friendly workflow automation and provides efficient real-time execution logging
The low-code interface and the quick code writing within n8n that we can do and utilize is very helpful. It is very evolving at this point in time and very user-friendly. It brings in efficiency, better time to market, and actually helps us. Since we have hardcore developers in our team who use n8n, it becomes straightforward for them to quickly wrap up some modules from the front end and then connect them and use it quickly for different sorts of integrations. In terms of real-time execution logs, when we are running and debugging any process within n8n, this really helps us in figuring out if there is a problem within different modules. It provides the flexibility of pinning down the problem to the micro level, which is a really good benefit.

Offers flexibility and ease of integration while needing improvements in data flow management
I haven't worked with Talend Data Integration on real-time data processing; I have only seen the streaming component, and I think it can accommodate limited streaming, not at the level of larger big data platforms. Regarding ETL, Talend Data Integration is great, but concerning real-time data processing, people are not really sure about Talend Data Integration or might not know how it provides such types of flexibilities. I haven't worked on this aspect in Talend Data Integration, so this is definitely an area where it lacks. To elaborate on one drawback, if I am designing something in Talend Data Integration, I cannot backtrack in the flow. For example, if I read data from a source and transform it before applying complex aggregation in the third step, I cannot join this data with the second step. If I need to go back, I will have to use a memory component, or if I need to avoid memory consumption, I will have to read the data from step one again to join it with the third step.
