"With this solution, there is the potential to expand, so that you can immediately write code onto the SQL server."

"It's something I needed for bulk imports. I'm not a big fan of it, but I haven't seen anything better."

"Like most Microsoft products, SSIS is user-friendly and easy to use."

"The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand."

"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."

"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."

"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."

"The availability of connectors is great."

"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."

"The solution is very user-friendly and easy to understand."

"Microsoft's technical support has decreased in quality over the last few years, becoming less responsive and tending to pass problems on instead of solving them."

"I come from a coding background and this tool is graphically based. Sometimes I think it's cumbersome to do mapping graphically. If there was a way to provide a simple script, it would be helpful and make it easier to use."

"The interface could use improvement, as well as the administrative tools. Jobs fail from time to time for different reasons. It's not a problem with Microsoft, or SSIS itself. The problems are external, but to find the problems and analyze them it takes too much time."

"When I compare Talend and SSIS, Talend provides more features. With Talend, we can handle a large volume of data. Talend is usually used to treat a large volume of data, which makes it better than SSIS on the data side. Talend also has a very good Talend Management Console to schedule the jobs and do other things. It can also be easily connected to version control tools such as GitHub or SVN. The last time I used SSIS, it was connected through TSS for the Windows Console version. I am not sure it has been improved or not. If it is not improved, Microsoft should improve it. They should change the product to provide another console."

"We purchase an add on called task factory primarily to allow bulk delete, update and upsert capability. I'd like to see this be part of the standard package."

"I would also like to see full integration with our BI because then our full load of data will be available in our organization. They should incorporate an ATL process."

"The high prices attached to the product can be an area of concern where improvements are required."

"It's a legacy tool, that is nearing the end of its useful life."

"The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform."

"I would like to sync a project and do an upload from that current version, and then from GitLab, be able to download the latest one."

"The stability is good, but the performance is slower when I work on a huge amount of data."

"I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself."

"The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging."

"They lack in memory capacity."

"I think they should drive toward AI and machine learning. They could include a machine-learning algorithm for the deduplication."

"Performance and speed could be improved."

"All of my clients have this product included as part of their Microsoft license."

"I'm not involved in licensing details, but SSIS provides value to our organization by simplifying data management tasks."

"This solution is included with the MSSQL server package."

"Our license with SSIS is annual."

"It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."

"Depending on the arrangement that a certain company has with Microsoft, it may supply the permanent license that is included in the SQL server license, or it may be a time-bound license if it is a partner license or other enterprise license."

"SSIS' licensing is a little high, but it gives good value for money."

"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."

"The tool is cheap."

"The pricing is a little higher than what I had expected, but it's comparable with I-PASS competitors."

"The licensing cost is about 40,000 Euros a year."

"The price of the Talend Data Management Platform is reasonable. The other competing solutions are priced high. Gartner Magic Quadrant identified other solutions, such as Informatica, that are far more expensive."

"The price is on a per-user basis. It's a little more expensive than other tools. There aren't any additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."

"The solution's pricing is very reasonable and half the cost of Informatica."

"License renewal is on a yearly basis."
