We performed a comparison between Informatica PowerExchange and Talend Data Management Platform 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."Provides a significant amount of control over the landscape and overall implementation."
"It is easy to integrate the solution with other tools."
"The product’s flexibility is valuable."
"The main benefit of PowerExchange is its native real-time capabilities. Competing tools are counting on third-party packages or Oracle to offer real-time capabilities. However, Informatica has a native ability to scan the data on the file system level and capture the changes almost instantly when I push it to the consumers. The solution has a powerful built-in replication engine."
"The solution can connect to different systems i.e. mainframe, IMS or AS/400 Legacy Systems."
"The data transformation is the solution's most valuable feature."
"This product is easy to install and it can be done in a few hours."
"The transformation work called for Informatica PowerExchange. It was easy to work with this and very stable."
"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"The most valuable feature is the data loading and scripting language"
"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 basic tools are easy to pick up and understand."
"I think Talend is one of the easiest tools for faster implementation compared to other tools."
"The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."
"We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need."
"The product is not suitable for application integration."
"The solution needs better integration with other tools."
"I would like the stability to improve."
"Real-time has not been enhanced that much over the past few years. There has not been as many features added like they did before."
"Should diversify more, maybe with a reporting and visualization utility,"
"V10.2 is very stable, but we are still struggling to make V10.5 stable. We found services that were down, and PowerExchange stopped working."
"The one place where it could be improved is definitely pricing. That's a very big problem. It depends product to product, but pricing is an issue."
"Informatica is very expensive in all aspects, so the pricing is something that could be improved."
"They lack in memory capacity."
"Performance and speed could be improved."
"The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging."
"Including either XML or JSON in the next release would definitely be a good transformation. I'm not sure if Talend has that feature, but it's one of those requirements that we are working around and have to do some parsing of XML so this could make it easier."
"I'd be interested in seeing the running of Python programs and transformations from within the studio itself."
"I've had some issues with bugs causing crashes, especially when making changes to the system or with the monthly upgrades to Studio they've introduced."
"We'd like to see more connectors it the future."
"The product must enhance the data quality."
