Improved data management has reduced errors while consistent loads have saved weekly effort
I think the best feature Stitch offers is that it handles deleted records. Stitch's ability to handle deleted records is a standout feature for me because if a record is deleted at the source, I can easily track it with soft delete and all that functionality. Stitch has impacted my organization positively, as I have both positive and negative aspects with it. One positive aspect is that full loads are free, so whenever I see data issues, I can go for full loads. At the same time, I need to look at the limitations, such as API limits. Stitch has helped my organization achieve better data management, making it easier. Better data management means that Stitch helps my team access data faster and reduces errors.

Has supported building flexible data pipelines and streamlined ETL orchestration
There should be a dedicated support team for Talend Open Studio. We do have a support team, but at times it is critical for us to fix certain things within one or two hours. Usually, the support team takes some 12 hours, which is the standard edition of support. If we could have round-the-clock support, we would be able to resolve many issues which we encounter during the development part. The initial setup for Talend Open Studio is a little complex. We need to have a dedicated person who has an understanding of Talend Open Studio as a tool. It takes some level of expertise, so it is not an easy process, but once we have a dedicated associate who is knowledgeable in that particular field, it becomes comparatively easier.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stitch helps immensely because in just a day, we are able to cover the work that would normally take two to three weeks worth of design work nonstop."
"The setup process for Stitch was pretty easy, with a plug and play approach where the data is immediately available."
"Stitch has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to create MVPs quickly."
"Stitch has helped my organization achieve better data management, making it easier, as it helps my team access data faster and reduces errors."
"Easy setup and easy change management are the best features Stitch offers, along with a good admin panel."
"The most valuable feature of Stitch for us is ease of use. This solution is fire-and-forget. All an organization has to do is set up the connection or integration and move on."
"We're sold on the customization part of the solution."
"This product is very easy to use."
"You can use Talend SDK to develop your own components and add them to the product."
"A very user friendly solution."
"The solution's technical support is responsive and helpful."
"Open Studio's best features are that it's user-friendly, even for beginners, and very easy to implement."
"Talend Open Studio is easy to create jobs. We use the basic functionality and it is very good."
"The Talend Studio connected to the Talend MDM (Master Data Management) is the most valuable feature. Talend Studio is used to create a job stream that connects to multiple data sources, matches, compares or creates a golden record for overall identification. It also has a good catalogue of objects that can be dragged and dropped for building models."
 

Cons

"The conversion to Figma is not effective."
"Stitch should definitely provide more extractors than it does now and provide the ability for teams to integrate their own extractors."
"The customer support of Stitch is horrible."
"Generally speaking, support is a pain point. In the next release, I would love to see a change in support from the current chat to a more comprehensive portal."
"My experience with customer support for Stitch has been very bad."
"The designs that Stitch produces sometimes cannot really be used for final launch, but I understand Stitch was designed just for rapid prototyping and for teams to get from the point where they just have an idea to having an actual product."
"Inter-version compatibility is a problem, and migration projects between versions are required."
"It needs better installation configuration for other databases. Although the installation allows you to select another database, this doesn't mean that all connection points in the application point to the database selected. You actually need to do a search through the entire install to locate the configuration settings and change them."
"If I compare Open Studion to other solutions, their interface is robust but not so fancy looking. This is an area that could use improvement. I would like to see an updated interface."
"When faced with a challenge, such as the necessity to link up with an unconventional data source like the legacy Cyprus Vision database that wasn't inherently supported by Talend, I had to resort to writing Python code to establish the connection."
"Having additional training materials, such as a video tutorial, would be an improvement."
"It is not as visually appealing as some of the other tools."
"The user interface could be made simpler."
"I rate Talend Open Studio's stability an eight out of ten. Talend has some problems sometimes."

"Price could be lower. It is getting too expensive when compared to some other solutions, which is actually a little bit concerning."
"The paid version of this solution has a very high price, but even with the limitations, the Community version works fine."
