Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, Alation, Collibra and others in Metadata Management."When you combine it with data lineage, every time you need to make a change, it allows you to do impact analysis on any changes and then connect to the end-users or data stewards so that they can be aware that a change is coming. That's one of the main benefits we use it for."
"The data catalog feature is pretty 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."
"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."
"It is user-friendly and the interface is good."
"The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days."
"The data integration aspect of the solution is excellent."
"It has got so many connectors. It is intuitive and easy to use."
"The standout feature for me is the user-friendly nature of the components."
"The most valuable features are definitely data integration, data preparation, and data stewardship."
"There is room for improvement with respect to the connector and how to connect to the structured and unstructured database."
"There are always ways to improve things. For example, we can use AI to be able to find out something. When we are typing something, if we don't know the exact term, Artificial Intelligence would be useful to find terms that are phonetically or syntactically similar. Instead of having to type in the exact name, they can provide those in the list. So, they can provide AI support for the search because when you have thousands and thousands of terms, it is hard to remember all the names."
"I would say that writing to JSON is kind of a pain. It reads from a JSON file pretty well, but writing to a JSON file is not so great because its components are not good."
"Talend Open Studio's interface does not provide a good experience...I would like to see better documentation and a more enhanced graphical interface in Talend Open Studio."
"Talend should improve the log and error handling to better track the errors you find during development. Sometimes it's challenging to see what's causing an issue, and tracking that on Talend is complicated."
"The solution needs more integrations."
"Talent consumes a lot of resources on my PC."
"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 don't get continuous replication of the data."
"Inter-version compatibility is a problem, and migration projects between versions are required."
