Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"I like the way that you can use the context variables, and how you can work those context variables to give you values and settings for every development environment, such as PROD, TEST, and DEV."
"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."
"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."
"The solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage."
"The features that I like the most are the simplicity of the interface, and the ability to quickly develop with a predefined component."
"webMethods platform is used to build an EAI platform, enabling communication between many internal systems and third-party operators."
"How simple it is to create new solutions."
"Given that you have one integration API in place, it takes very minimal effort to scale it to any other application that might want to use the same. Its flow-based development environment is a breeze and makes it really easy to re-use most of the existing components and build up a new API."
"Best feature is Insight for monitoring, and as a debugging tool. It has saved us a lot of time during crisis situations."
"The Software AG Designer has been great. It's very intuitive."
"It integrates well with various servers."
"One valuable feature is that it is event-driven, so when new data is available on the source it can be quickly processed and displayed. Integration is definitely another useful feature, and B2B is one area where webMethods has its own unique thing going, whereby we can do monitoring of transactions, monitoring of client onboarding, and so on."
"It has a good integration server, designer, and a very good API portal."
"I think they should drive toward AI and machine learning. They could include a machine-learning algorithm for the deduplication."
"They lack in memory capacity."
"The product must enhance the data quality."
"The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging."
"Including either XML or JSON in the next release would definitely be a good transformation. I'm not sure if Talend has that feature, but it's one of those requirements that we are working around and have to do some parsing of XML so this could make it easier."
"Once you get past the basic tools, it gets pretty complicated."
"The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform."
"The documentation from version to version could be more accurate."
"The solution has big instances when deployed under microservices or in a containerized platform. They need to improve that so that it is competitive with other integration solutions, like Redis and Kafka. Deployments under microservices with those solutions are much more lightweight, in the size of the runtime itself, compared with Software AG."
"It is quite expensive."
"This product is for larger companies. Compared to TIBCO I think webMethods is better in terms of ease of use and support."
"The market webMethods Integration Server falls under is a very crowded market, so for the product to stand out, Software AG would need to get traction in the open source community by releasing a new version or a base version and open source it, so people can create new custom components and add it to the portfolio."
"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData."
"The product must add more compatible connectors."
"The product needs to be improved in a few ways. First, they need to stabilize the components of the whole platform across versions. Also, they should stop replacing old components with brand new ones and, rather, improve by evolution."
"wM SAP Adapter User Guide - Example, like Message Broker setup was unclear, leading to issues during Testing and we had refer the internet forums to understand that there is a Message Broker Cleanup utility and that needs to be setup as well."
