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.
Vasanth Kumar Sabaapathi - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Lead Architect at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Simplified integrations bring flexibility and efficiency to diverse industries through comprehensive features and robust support
SAP is already trying to make improvements for SAP Process Orchestration by releasing updates every quarter, including patches and modules, and from a security standpoint, while it's a tightly coupled tool, they are introducing a lot of enhancements aligned with current market trends. There are standard contents readily available for starting integrations, which suit around 90% of every industry across verticals including pharma, manufacturing, and employee data central with SuccessFactors integration. Regarding functionality-wise improvements in SAP Process Orchestration, they are now incorporating the Salesforce system. Previously, we needed to rely on a third-party adapter for integration within SAP, but now they are building their own adapters to connect with Salesforce. Additionally, there are options like data connectors using Ariba coming up with SAP Process Orchestration. There's much more to explore, especially as they release new patches, enhancements, and adapters each quarter.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"If you are looking for something that is stable, cost-effective and has a great ROI, then Talend is a great choice."
"Talend Data integration has a wide library of connectors."
"I'm very passionate about this solution because if you look at any other tool that costs around $200 - $300,000, like Delphix which costs you a million dollars, Talend is very cheap and is almost is at par with what others can do. There is one thing which Delphix does which Talend cannot do, but overall, I would say apart from that, if you're looking for a solution, you should give it a try."
"Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) transformations are open source and is a valuable feature."
"What I like about the Talend MDM Platform is that it's a good vendor diagnostic tool."
"We have used value frequency and patterns. We have been it impressed with these functions as they have helped us in making decisions in transformation work."
"Talend is a good product and I recommend it."
"We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The main benefit is that the solution is low maintenance. Moreover, it's the license cost is very low because it's part of the package. The maintenance is standard maintenance. And the updates are regular. So there's a regular update and you can choose whether you want to do those updates or not."
"The product has good technical support but you usually will not need it because it is quite stable."
"This solution is one of the most stable integration SAP products that you could possibly have."
"The performance of data processing has increased."
"It is simple to transfer files."
"The most valuable features of SAP Process Orchestration are its system monitoring and alerts."
"SAP Process Orchestration offers easy maintainability and is a very flexible tool that easily adapts to any integration standards and artifacts that are readily available."
 

Cons

"The biggest challenge with Talend was its performance."
"There are no natural connections for some of the applications that I use more regularly."
"The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform."
"I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself."
"I encountered scalability issues."
"I think the subscription-based model is concerning because as I mentioned, some of our other projects are migrating to different tools."
"Processing large volumes of data sometimes consumes a lot of resources."
"The product must enhance the data quality."
"Process Orchestration doesn't provide authentication for data sent to us, meaning we have to rely on client certificate-based or basic authentication."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the ease of implementing new projects and improve overall stability in our implementations."
"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved."
"I think the main area that SAP PO should improve on is offering pre-delivered content like they do when you use SAP Cloud Platform Integration (CPI). SAP should not forget that they still have a lot of customers using Process Orchestration and they should focus more on providing pre-delivered content in SAP PO."
"Process Orchestration needs to provide secure connectivity as no one has any data information."
"Data modeling is an area of concern in the product where improvements are required."
"I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible."
"The main issue is that these products, which evolved from Process Integration to SAP Process Orchestration, will be replaced and will have no support in the future."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is cheap."
"It's a subscription-based platform, we renew it every year."
"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."
"The licensing cost for the Talend MDM Platform is paid yearly, but I'm unable to give you the figure. I would rate its price as four out of five because it's on the cheaper side. I'm not aware of any extra costs in addition to the standard licensing fees for the Talend MDM Platform."
"It is cheaper than Informatica. Talend Data Quality costs somewhere between $10,000 to $12,000 per year for a seat license. It would cost around $20,000 per year for a concurrent license. It is the same for the whole big data solution, which comes with Talend DI, Talend DQ, and TDM."
"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 product pricing is considered very good, especially compared to other data integration tools in the market."
"I would advise to first take a look and at the Open Studio edition. Figure out what you need and purchase the appropriate license."
"My company deals with different pricing models of the product, according to which we don't pay for the solution directly, but we do pay for the maintenance part."
"The license is a one-time payment, and additional costs are only incurred on the infrastructure side since it's an on-premise solution."
"The fee for maintenance is costly."
"The price of SAP Process Orchestration was reasonable."
"The pricing for this solution is fine."
"It is a very expensive solution. We only pay for the license."
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good."
"The solution is highly-priced."
