Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product has a good user interface.""It is pretty user-friendly, even for people who aren't super technical.""The most valuable feature of Matillion ETL is its ease of use. If you have had some experience with other solutions, such as Snowflake, the use of this solution will be simple.""We allow non-technical people to use Matillion to load data into our data warehouse for reporting. Thus, it is easy enough to use that we don't always have to get a technical person involved in setting up a data movement (ETL).""The new version with the Productivity Cloud is very simple. It's easy to use, navigate, and understand.""It has good integrations with Amazon Redshift and other AWS services.""It's been able to do everything we require.""It takes less than five minutes to set up and delivers results. It is much quicker than traditional ETL technologies."

"The API integration and big data approach are very good because of how you extract data from JSP files or big data web repositories like MongoDB.""Talend is significantly easier to use.""Talend can connect to multiple data sources, including relational data sources, ERP, CRM, and others.""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.""Talend Open Studio is easy to create jobs. We use the basic functionality and it is very good.""It's a good tool. It has the ability to take apart and install whatever we need. It's very good for data, transformation, and loading.""The most valuable features are the ETL tools.""The rapidity of integration with data may be one of the valuable features."

Cons
"There are certain functions that are available in other ETL tools which are still not present in Matillion ETL. It would be good to have more features.""While the UI is good, it could be improved in its efficiency and made easier to use.""It needs integration with more data sources.""Ideally, I would like it to integrate with Secrets Manager as well as the AWS.""In the next release, we would like to have connections to more databases.""I found some of the more complex aspects of ETL challenging, but I grasped the concepts fairly quickly.""The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced.""Performance can be improved for efficiency, and it can be made faster."

More Matillion ETL Cons →

"The solution should offer better integration with other products.""It gets the job done but it's a bit slow.""The price for Talend Data Integration should be less expensive.""We need more components to be more efficient. We use a lot of components, such as Salesforce, and it's not easy to use. There's are minor bugs and it's not easy to use some of the features.""The pricing could be lower. They should work to make it more affordable.""As for improvement or additional features, I would like to know how to use Java in Talend and also how to use Talend in the cloud or in big data. I would prefer to have storage directly on Talend.""The only other thing is that you have to integrate into an API gateway. We're in Azure, so we use Microsoft Azure Gateway. It doesn't come with its own gateway, which is another sort of big plus side that we saw in Boomi. Talend isn't quite there yet with the API gateway.""The physical appearance of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by PeerSpot users currently using the Talend Open Studio solution.

    Elio B., Data Integration Specialist/CTO at Asset messages, says, "The solution has a good balance between automated items and the ability for a developer to integrate and extend what he needs. Other competing tools do not offer the same grade of flexibility when you need to go beyond what is provided by the tool. Talend, on the other hand, allows you to expand very easily."

    A Practice Head, Analytics at a tech services company mentions, “The data integration aspect of the solution is excellent. The product's data preparation features are very good. There's very useful data stewardship within the product. From a technical standpoint, the solution itself is pretty good. There are very good pre-built connectors in Talend, which is good for many clients or businesses, as, in most cases, companies are dealing with multiple data sources from multiple technologies. That is where a tool like Talend is extremely helpful.”

    Prerna T., Senior System Executive at a tech services company, comments, “The best thing I have found with Talend Open Studio is their major support for the lookups. With Salesforce, when we want to relate our child objects to their parent object, we need to create them via IDs. Then the upsert operation, which will allow you to relate a child object to the event, will have an external ID. That is the best thing which keeps it very sorted. I like that.”

    An Implementation Specialist, Individual Contributor at a computer software company, states, “I can connect with different databases such as Oracle Database or SQL Server. It allows you to extract the data from one database to another. I can structure the data by filtering and mapping the fields.” He also adds, “It is very user-friendly. You need to know the basics of SQL development or SQL queries, and you can use this tool.”

    PeerSpot user Badrakh V., Information System Architect at Astvision, explains, "The most valuable features are the ETL tools."
