Easy-to-use product with the ability to generate code efficiently
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
Talend's most valuable feature is its ability to generate code and packages efficiently. This feature streamlines the integration process, saving developers time and effort. Additionally, the stability of the generated code is noteworthy, as it ensures reliability over time. Despite not always producing the most aesthetically pleasing code, it eliminates critical errors, reducing the burden on developers. This stability is particularly crucial in complex integration scenarios, where errors can have significant consequences.
What needs improvement?
The product's setup process could be simpler.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been utilizing Talend Data integration for five years.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Our organization utilized Microsoft's SSIS for data integration before. However, we switched to Talend because of its simplicity and ease of use.
One key difference between Microsoft's SSIS and Talend data integration is their approach to integration. Talend emphasizes Java integration, which a robust Java assistant further supports. It provides its job ecosystem, which users utilize.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was relatively straightforward, although it required careful attention to various components such as developer training, transformation models, and system configurations. Its versatility extends beyond simple data integration, offering powerful tools for backend processing and Java library integration. Challenges during implementation were mostly related to the complexity of the ecosystem and licensing issues, but these were manageable with appropriate expertise. While the setup may require effort, its robust features make it a valuable asset for organizations seeking efficient data processing solutions.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The product pricing is considered very good, especially compared to other data integration tools in the market.
What other advice do I have?
In a previous role, I implemented Talend's integration solutions, providing installation and training to my team. It was vital for processing data in our databases and BI platform. For instance, it efficiently handled file reception from clients, identifying errors and integrating data seamlessly. This streamlined approach improved efficiency, especially with a substantial increase in processing volumes to 38,000 batches.
I recommend the product to others and rate it a ten out of ten.
Collects and reports data to Power BI dashboard
What is our primary use case?
We use the product to collect and report data to the Power BI dashboard.
What is most valuable?
The product's integration with PostgreSQL and Jira has been helpful for us. Its performance is good. However, we do not use it for large data sets.
What needs improvement?
Due to using the open-source version of Talend Data Integration, which lacks a scheduler, our current approach involves developing jobs in Talend, exporting them as Java packages, and utilizing an external scheduler, such as Windows Scheduler, to manage the scheduling process.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the product for nine months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The product's stability is good.
How are customer service and support?
We have no support since we use the open-source version.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have used Informatica before Talend Data Integration.
How was the initial setup?
The tool's deployment time varies based on the development scope. Smaller deliverables may take half a day in an agile environment, while larger deployments could exceed several hours. On average, deploying one job takes around two to three hours. We may require three resources to handle the deployment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I have been using the open-source version.
What other advice do I have?
The tool's learning curve for new users is good. I rate the product an eight out of ten. Before using Talend Data Integration, it's important to remember that it requires effort in data development. There are numerous configurations to handle, and the deployment process can be lengthy, depending on the specific version in use.
Comes with a wide library of connects but needs to work on customer support
What is most valuable?
Talend Data integration has a wide library of connectors.
What needs improvement?
The tool's technical support needs to be better. It doesn't have a local data center but pushes everything to the cloud. They need to check in with customers to see if they're happy and how well the solutions work. They need to assign a customer success manager for the accounts they sell.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the product for four and a half years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Talend Data integration's stability is good.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I rate the tools' scalability an eight out of ten.
How was the initial setup?
Talend Data integration's initial deployment is simple.
What other advice do I have?
I rate the product an eight out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Hybrid Cloud
Moderately useful or productive software
What do you like best about the product?
Talend Cloud Data Integration's security improves data protection. It enables users to scale up and down services as needed. It has good graphic tools with connectors via which I may easily connect to various databases in the installations and cloud. In addition, backup and catastrophe recovery are automated; that's an advantage. This software's pillars are innovation, growth with you, and giving you security, and the risk goes down.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has insufficient memory capacity. The performance and speed might be improved. On the other hand, minor limitations include implementing some components such as tParellelize and the yearly pricing of the product. A single license charges it, and a corporation that needs many permits must pay a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Talend Cloud Data Integration only has simplified data administration and reporting for our clients. I would suggest it to any firm for any date-related work. To be honest, this software does not work well for our company.
High cost and limited functions
What do you like best about the product?
The only features I liked about this software were the following:
1. The cloud has a comprehensive monitoring solution.
2. Database has good administration; all the information is completely organized.
3. ETL/ETL channels can be created and managed easily.
4. Several functions are related; this allows the work to be done much faster.

What do you dislike about the product?
I used this software a month ago, currently, I am not using it because I preferred StarfishETL, the reasons why I do not like Talend are the following:
1. It has very little memory. The speed and performance are very poor.
2. It should have more algorithms, to automatically analyze all the functions that are executed.
3. As several functions are related to each other, there is usually a certain decay when you are performing some type of function individually.
4. Many basic tools have limitations of use.
5. Lastly, it is expensive software.
