"You can use Talend as a stand-alone application without customization to collect data and generate reports over dashboards. It's got great functionality."
"The most valuable feature for me when it comes to this solution is that it's easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Talend Open Studio is the tMap component. There is a lot of functionality in one component."
"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."
"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. It is very user-friendly. You need to know the basics of SQL development or SQL queries, and you can use this tool."
"This product is very easy to use."
"The initial setup of the product was very easy."
"Open Studio's best features are that it's user-friendly, even for beginners, and very easy to implement."
"The initial setup should be made easy and the documentation should have some guidance."
"The cost of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required, especially when compared to other tools, like Dell Boomi or Oracle."
"Better documentation, in particular with respect to the initial setup, would be helpful."
"MuleSoft's release calendar is rather conventional with two major, two minor releases and hotfixes in between. The competition sometimes offer more rapid release cycles and provides improved and new functionality with a faster time-to-market."
"What I hear from my customers is that it's very expensive compared to the cost of other integration suites. The cost keeps increasing. MuleSoft should come up with customization factors by using a different way of getting the cost-related stuff to attract customers. That is, they should come up with some cost optimizations."
"Mule Anypoint Platform is complex for beginners. Users without programming skills will find it complex. It should also improve its pricing."
"The compatibility with vendors can be improved. Microsoft Azure heavily uses single software."
"The stability could be better."
"The profiling perspective needs improvement. Instead of using it in the studio, we are using a different tool which is also provided by Talend. It's redundant."
"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 technical support and documentation need a lot of work to come up to standard."
"In the next release, Open Studio should include cloud storage as an input."
"The documentation is lacking within the product. They need to get better at all aspects of describing how it works and how to use it."
"It doesn't have the ability to keep the repository of the source code (visual pipeline). It can be integrated with Git."
"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."
"The pricing could be lower. They should work to make it more affordable."
