Automation has transformed daily operations and now delivers faster, more accurate data flows
The best features in SnapLogic are the drag-and-drop interface which makes it easy to build data and application flows. No heavy coding is required, making it ideal for both technical and non-technical users. SnapLogic also offers pre-built snaps, real-time and batch processing, API management and integration, cloud and hybrid support, dashboarding and monitoring, error handling and retry mechanisms, scalability, security and governance, and transformation capabilities with built-in functions to clean and transform data, expressions, aggregations, and mappings. SnapLogic offers auto-mapping and smart schema detection as additional features. SnapLogic can detect schemas automatically, which helps when sources evolve or change, and this matters because there is less manual mapping work.

Data integration has become highly customizable but pricing and memory tuning still need improvement
From my experience around Business Intelligence for data and analytics for around twenty-something years, I can say that what I appreciate about Talend Data Fabric is that we can connect sources to everything and be able to customize everything. The freedom I have as a developer is what pleases me most regarding Talend Data Fabric, as I always find a way to customize a component to meet my needs. The downside, however, is indeed the pricing, which has been the biggest challenge; since it went to Click, there is no longer a free license version such as Talend Open Studio, so either you pay or you do not have anything.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's more developer-friendly, and development can be done at a faster phase."
"It is a stable solution."
"My teams can connect to new partners and data sources in hours, not days."
"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot."
"I found SnapLogic valuable and what I found most valuable about it was its ETL feature."
"What I found most valuable in SnapLogic is the ETL feature, particularly the Transform Snap Pack, for example, any kind of reading or writing on Transform Snaps. Other than that, all the third-party connectivity tools such as the SAP Snap Pack, Salesforce Snap Pack, Workday Snap Pack, even the ServiceNow Snap Pack, I find all those are pretty useful in SnapLogic."
"The connection with SOAP is the best feature."
"SnapLogic delivers measurable ROI through time savings, 70% fewer errors, faster processes, and significant cost reductions while enabling scalable automations across our systems."
"Talend has very good support for big data."
"What I find most valuable about this solution is the 900 connectors because it allows me to integrate any tool and any cloud system I need to integrate and they have a connector out of the box."
"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 Talend data integration has been one of the most valuable features."
"We've had no issues with the stability so far."
"From my experience around Business Intelligence for data and analytics for around twenty-something years, I can say that what I appreciate about Talend Data Fabric is that we can connect sources to everything and be able to customize everything."
"Talend can be used for multi-cloud purposes, allowing users to orchestrate data across various cloud platforms without purchasing AWS Glue, Azure Data Factory, or similar cloud-specific tools."
"The initial setup is very easy."
 

Cons

"The problem is that SnapLogic doesn't offer a wide variety of connectors. For example, integrating with Salesforce is not that easy."
"I would like to see more performance-related dashboards, ones that display the cost of a pipeline, for instance. Also, it would be helpful to have management dashboards for overseeing pipelines and connections."
"As for improvements, the monitor that I currently use sometimes gets stuck and I am not able to expand and view the child pipelines in a much easier way."
"SnapLogic sits somewhere in the middle. It doesn’t offer enough easy canned integrations for its users like some of the easier to use integration apps."
"While new features are always welcome, I do not have anything else at the top of my mind currently."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"There is room for improvement with APM management and how task execution looks."
"They should expand in terms of features for SaaS-based market requirements in different sectors."
"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."
"I would like to see better integration with other tools because every tool waiting for approval in terms of leveraging machine learning takes a long time."
"I would like to see better integration with other tools."
"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."
"We encounter issues getting email notifications. They should provide enough information about the configuration process for email components."
"The support is not very good. The team is not well-trained, and resolving a ticket can require several discussions."
"Deployment can be difficult, but I didn't test the latest version yet."
"Talend's architecture is complex to configure, especially due to the various components involved. It requires a more intricate setup."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SnapLogic's price is high compared to the other tools available in the market."
"The cost with SnapLogic is an annual license and better than Informatica."
"By scaling the solution incrementally the cost is controlled and more beneficial to the client."
"I used the free trial."
"The pricing is okay."
"The license model is based on consumption."
"SnapLogic is not expensive. It's reasonably priced."
"They have pricing/usage tiers that are easy to move up or down."
"There are multiple subscriptions available with Talend, each with its own scope. Subscriptions depend on the number of users you have and how many remote engines you want to install."
"There are no additional licensing fees when you scale"
