Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, Alation, SAP 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."
"I didn't have many problems installing it. It seemed very straightforward to me."
"The rapidity of integration with data may be one of the valuable features."
"The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days."
"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."
"The Talend Studio connected to the Talend MDM (Master Data Management) is the most valuable feature. Talend Studio is used to create a job stream that connects to multiple data sources, matches, compares or creates a golden record for overall identification. It also has a good catalogue of objects that can be dragged and dropped for building models."
"Talend lets you do everything — mapping, workflow, and orchestration — in a single place."
"Talend Studio has the ability to use it to ensure data quality."
"This solution has improved our overall time to value for data ingestion."
"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."
"There is room for improvement with respect to the connector and how to connect to the structured and unstructured database."
"We don't get continuous replication of the data."
"As for improvement or additional features, I would like to know how to use Java in Talend and also how to use Talend in the cloud or in big data. I would prefer to have storage directly on Talend."
"Multiple products are there within the product suite. That can be actually trimmed down."
"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."
"The user interface could be made simpler."
"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 technical support and documentation need a lot of work to come up to standard."
"The solution should offer better integration with other products."
