Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like how SAP Data Services links reporting and data integration. That's what's most interesting. You also have the opportunity to leverage the power of the Data Services server."
"The basic functionality is quite good as is the basic logic and data information."
"It is a powerful product with a broad range of features."
"The API tool in this product is very valuable; it is very easy to onboard and use."
"The most valuable feature is the ETL functionality."
"Data Services' table comparison mechanism is very powerful. It's pretty hard to find a similar feature in other solutions."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Data Services is the integration with data sources."
"The reporting on the data, even from third-party software, is very good."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"We've had no issues with the stability so far."
"The Talend data integration has been one of the most valuable features."
"It is a smart tool for us to design data pipelines. It lets us populate our three data lake instances. We like this solution for its connection capabilities, since it is very important to be able to use many different types of software. We tested a lot of SAP sources successfully, including cloud sources with SAP. It is also very easy to anonymize data with TIBCO, as well as populating HDFS files, packet files, and raw files. It is very easy to do that with Talend Data Fabric."
"The solution should offer more machine learning and automation."
"Scheduling of jobs in the sequence is not available. It's a very tedious process to do that particular task. If there was a tool to schedule in the sequence that would be extremely helpful."
"I want some more business intelligence applications. People need to know more and more about data, including the transformation rules, etc. Informatica is a better product for data cataloging. SAP should update the data catalog."
"At the integration level, there could be certain set of improvement to connect to various other systems."
"The interface is not quite user-friendly and is in need of improvement."
"Newer feature integration is lagging behind the company acquisitions and the product could do more to service a broader range of devices."
"The pricing of the solution should be improved."
"It will work fine only in an SAP environment. It could be said that the integration with other vendors could be better."
"We are currently using version 7.3.1, but preferred the version before. The problem that we currently have is that Talend are releasing patches for Talend Studio every quarter. Our technical team has to be on top of these patches and constantly ensure everything is updated."
"Deployment can be difficult, but I didn't test the latest version yet. With Talend products, every release brings a lot of new features and functionalities. This is never a small adaptation, because the tool is maturing, but we need to test the latest version and to check its deployment capabilities."
"I would like to see better integration with other tools."
"We encounter issues getting email notifications. They should provide enough information about the configuration process for email components."
