Syniti Data Quality vs Talend Data Quality comparison

"With Syniti Data Quality, you can integrate SAP and directly fix errors from Syniti Data Quality instead of logging into SAP and then fixing them."

"Syniti has built-in 80% of the solution, and we only need to customize 20 to 25% of the features. It is easy to run and pre-load reports."

"The customer service and support is good."

"The major benefits of Syniti Data Quality stem from the productivity and flexibility it offers to users."

"​It lowers the amount of time in development from weeks to a day.​"

"It’s easy to monitor the processes. Every morning I’ll open the Talend Administration Center to check the status of the process. Within seconds I’m able to see which process ran successfully and which have failed and why they failed."

"It offers advanced features that allow you to create custom patterns and use regular expressions to identify data issues."

"Provides a flexible development environment to the coder.​"

"It has definitely streamlined certain processes.​"

"It reduces the QA effort immensely by handling most of the test scenarios in a reusable way."

"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."

"We are able to get emails from URLs very easily using this function when others fail."

"The customization of the data needs improvement. We need to build basic SQL queries rather than being able to do it within the tool. We need to be able to analyze the SQL queries and then rerun them based on customer usage."

"In Syniti Data Quality, data extraction is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."

"The loading mechanisms and administration processes, particularly in setting up connections and deploying the system, need improvement."

"It would be good if Syniti Data Quality could integrate more AI in the future."

"They don't have any AI capabilities. Talend DQ is specifically for data quality, which only has data profiling. With Talend DQ, I cannot generate any reports today, so I need an ETL tool. It provides general Excel files, or I have to create some views. If instead of buying a new tool, Talend provides a reporting capability or solution, it would be great. It will reduce the development effort for creating these kinds of reports. We also manage the infrastructure for Talend. From the licensing perspective, for cloud, they only have seat licenses where one person is tied to one license, but for on-premise, they have concurrent licenses. It would be really awesome if they can provide concurrent licenses for the cloud so that if one person is not there, somebody else can use that license. Currently, it is not possible unless a person deactivates his or her license and moves the same seat license to someone else. We are one of the biggest customers in the central zone of the US for Talend, and this is the feedback that we have provided them again and again, but they come back and say that they aren't able to provide concurrent licenses on the cloud. In version 7.3, there is a feature for tokenization and de-tokenization of data. This is the feature that we are looking for. It is useful if somebody wants to see what we have masked and how do we demask it. This feature is not there in version 7.1. There are also a few other capabilities on the cloud, but we don't yet have a big footprint in the cloud."

"In terms of the solution's technical support, the interactions were satisfactory, but there is room for improvement, especially in managing expectations."

"SQL for displaying underlying data in non-match results does not work."

"NullPointerExceptions are going to be the death of me and are a big reason for our transition away from Talend. One day, it is fine with a 1000 blank rows, then the next day, it will find one blank cell and it breaks down."

"Finding assistance with issues can be spotty. With Python, there are literally millions of open source answers which are recent and apply to the version that we are using."

"If the SQL input controls could dynamically determine the schema-based on the SQL alone, it would simplify the steps of having to use a manually created and saved schema for use in the TMap for the Postgres and Redshift components. This would make things even easier."

"If we encounter issues, it’s most likely when using the Talend Open Studio. The studio can be slow, get stuck, or crash. But again, it can be caused by the resources of your machine or your connection with the repository. If we encounter issues with the Studio we restart the Studio. In emergencies, we create and use a new workspace."

"The ability to change the code when debugging the JavaScript could be improved."

"I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"The solution is expensive."

"It's a subscription-based platform, we renew it every year."

"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."

"We did not purchase a separate license for DQ. It is part of our data platform suite, and I believe it is well-priced."

"Moreover, the pricing structure stands out as highly competitive compared to other offerings in the market, making it a cost-effective choice for users."

"I would advise to first take a look and at the Open Studio edition. Figure out what you need and purchase the appropriate license."
