Jason Hale - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Decreases the development timeframe and costs
The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems. Often, customers decide to develop using open-source tools like Spring Boot if there aren't many connectors required to avoid increasing costs. They'll develop this way and then deploy using APIM, the bare minimum needed. It is mainly required for very complicated setups with many connectors. In the implementations I've seen, people often used open-source tools because there weren't many third-party systems involved—just their organization's own systems. From WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, I expect them to bring up more and more connectors in the future. That's the main expectation. Having more connectors in various areas will help us when discussing new requirements. I don't have any specific use case right now, so I can't name a particular connector. But, as new technologies emerge, the relevant connectors should be there for those. WSO2 Enterprise Integrator mainly helps with the integration part, which can be simplified only if you have relevant connectors for whatever you're doing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."
"The availability of connectors is great."
"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."
"The most valuable feature is the data loading and scripting language"
"The features that I like the most are the simplicity of the interface, and the ability to quickly develop with a predefined component."
"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 solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"It was mostly easy to set up the product."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."
"The productivity is the most valuable feature. It is very easy to write remediations."
"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."
"It's a very complete product. It allows us to network security and add more layers of security to the system."
 

Cons

"Data management could also encompass APIs and real-time streaming data integration."
"I've had some issues with bugs causing crashes, especially when making changes to the system or with the monthly upgrades to Studio they've introduced."
"The documentation from version to version could be more accurate."
"I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself."
"The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform."
"We'd like to see more connectors it the future."
"They lack in memory capacity."
"I think they should drive toward AI and machine learning. They could include a machine-learning algorithm for the deduplication."
"You cannot include the validation of XPath."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
"They should introduce better pricing for small companies."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."
"They should release upgrades more frequently."
"The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality."
"One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is a little higher than what I had expected, but it's comparable with I-PASS competitors."
"The solution's pricing is very reasonable and half the cost of Informatica."

"The tool is cheap."
"The licensing cost is about 40,000 Euros a 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 open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
