Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"This solution has improved our overall time to value for data ingestion.""The most valuable feature of Talend Open Studio is the tMap component. There is a lot of functionality in one component.""This product is very easy to use.""Talend is safe to use because it is very restrictive. It is easy to use when one learns how to manipulate data with SQL.""You can use Talend as a stand-alone application without customization to collect data and generate reports over dashboards. It's got great functionality.""It is easy to use and covers most of the functions needed. We can use the code without any extra effort. The open source is very good. They have the same commercials with additional connectors. The graphical design environment is also very easy.""The product's initial setup phase was easy.""I didn't have many problems installing it. It seemed very straightforward to me."

"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide.""The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone.""The solution basically conforms to our standards.""The learning curve for this solution is very good.""The solution's customer service is good.""The installation process is easy.""The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable.""The stability is excellent."

Cons
"The solution needs more integrations.""The user interface could be made simpler.""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.""When faced with a challenge, such as the necessity to link up with an unconventional data source like the legacy Cyprus Vision database that wasn't inherently supported by Talend, I had to resort to writing Python code to establish the connection.""The security features could be improved.""The stability of the solution could improve when running jobs. There can be errors when running projects but in the end, it works well and the errors do not impact the result.""It is complicated to understand the configuration process for email components.""The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."

More Talend Open Studio Cons →

"The micro integrator should be improved. There is room for enhancement considering alternative integration components.""I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues.""If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me.""In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience.""One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach.""The customization can be a bit difficult.""They should introduce better pricing for small companies.""WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs."

    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."

    WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, core to the WSO2 Integration Agile Platform, is an open source Integration product for cloud native and container-native projects. It enables enterprise integration experts to build, scale, and secure sophisticated integration solutions to achieve digital agility. Unlike other integration products, WSO2 Enterprise Integrator already contains integration runtimes, message brokering, business process modeling, analytics and visual tooling capabilities.
