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

"For report scheduling, I always prefer SAP because it has the most powerful scheduling features, like sending reports to more than 1,000 customers per day. That option is not as good in Microsoft BI and in Tableau it only exists as an add-on option."

"This product provides good reports using a single pane of glass."

"SAP Analytics Hub offers a user-friendly interface with effortless configuration, seamless updates, and real-time availability of information. It avoids the complexities associated with batch processing, providing a smooth and efficient experience."

"The platform's main benefit is its integration with SAP ERP data. It’s effective for data integration and integrity."

"Data consistency is also a notable feature; the system takes care of data consistency, so you don't need to handle it manually."

"What I like best about this solution is that it is built into the SAP line, making it easier to integrate with other SAP products."

"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."

"The process of upgrading the software is quite easy."

"They're very competitive in terms of performance, which is a good selling point. It has very rich features. It provides a very rich feature set in the application."

"The features that I like the most are the simplicity of the interface, and the ability to quickly develop with a predefined component."

"The availability of connectors is great."

"We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."

Cons

"Pricing and support are integrated into the system. However, the support process can be challenging, particularly when navigating the SAP support site, which lacks user-friendliness and ease of access."

"The analytics part of SAP has not been that good up until now. They're still in the infant stage and development is still going on. SAP has some cloud analytics and they're trying to configure it in Lumira, but it's not that good at this point."

"The platform could easily integrate with other ERP data solutions. Additionally, it should be faster compared to competitors in the cloud space."

"The technical support for Analytics Hub is limited and could be improved."

"The interface can be simplified because it is not a user-friendly experience."

"Faster implementation of new functions for the new product is an area of improvement in SAP Analytics Hub."

"Including either XML or JSON in the next release would definitely be a good transformation. I'm not sure if Talend has that feature, but it's one of those requirements that we are working around and have to do some parsing of XML so this could make it easier."

"I think they should drive toward AI and machine learning. They could include a machine-learning algorithm for the deduplication."

"The biggest challenge with Talend was its performance."

"We'd like to see more connectors it the future."

"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."

"They lack in memory capacity."

"The product is expensive."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"The pricing is a little higher than what I had expected, but it's comparable with I-PASS competitors."

"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 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."
