We performed a comparison between Qlik Compose and Talend Open Studio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Qlik Compose is good enough. It is user-friendly and intuitive."
"It's a stable solution."
"The technical support is very good. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable is its excellence as a graphical data representation tool and the versatility it offers, especially with drill-down capabilities."
"There were many valuable features, such as extracting any data to put in the cloud. For example, Qlik was able to gather data from SAP and extract SAP data from the platforms."
"One of the most valuable features was the ability to integrate multiple source systems that mainly used structured IDBMS versions."
"One of the most valuable features of this tool is its automation capabilities, allowing us to design the warehouse in an automated manner. Additionally, we can generate Data Lifecycle Policies (DLP) reports and efficiently implement updates and best practices based on proven design patterns."
"As long as you pick the solution that best fits with your requirements, you won't find that performance is a problem. It's good."
"The rapidity of integration with data may be one of the valuable features."
"Talend can connect to multiple data sources, including relational data sources, ERP, CRM, and others."
"The initial setup of the product was very easy."
"Talend lets you do everything — mapping, workflow, and orchestration — in a single place."
"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 Open Studio's installation process is easy. One just needs to install Java before installing the product"
"We're sold on the customization part of the solution."
"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."
"I'd like to have access to more developer training materials."
"There could be more customization options."
"There is some scope for improvement around the documentation, and a better UI would definitely help."
"There should be proper documentation available for the implementation process."
"It could enhance its capabilities in the realm of self-service options as currently, it is more suited for individuals with technical proficiency who can create pages using it."
"My issues with the solution's stability are owing to the fact that it has certain bugs causing issues in some functionalities that should be working."
"When processing data from certain tables with a large volume of data, we encounter significant delays. For instance, when dealing with around one million records, it typically takes three to four hours. To address this, I aim to implement performance improvements across all tables, ensuring swift processing similar to those that are currently complete within seconds. The performance issue primarily arises when we analyze the inserts and updates from the source, subsequently dropping the table. While new insertions are handled promptly, updates are processed slowly, leading to performance issues. Despite consulting our Qlik vendors, they were unable to pinpoint the exact cause of this occurrence. Consequently, I am seeking ways to optimize performance within Qlik Compose, specifically concerning updates."
"For more complex work, we are not using Qlik Compose because it cannot handle very high volumes at the moment. It needs the same batching capabilities that other ETL tools have. We can't batch the data into small chunks when transforming large amounts of data. It tries to do everything in one shot and that's where it fails."
"The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Having additional training materials, such as a video tutorial, would be an improvement."
"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 user interface could be made simpler."
"The server-side should be completely revamped."
"The pricing could be lower. They should work to make it more affordable."
"In version 6.2 we did encounter issues with the job servers and specifically with ESB. Version 6.3 is better but large jobs can cause the MDM server to fall over, requiring a reboot."
"The product could be more intuitive."
