Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
The most valuable feature that we use is the Knowledge Modules. It's completely user-friendly. All our systems can be widely integrated by ODI, such as transactional systems, our data warehouses, and B2B integration. It has the ability to easily load slowly changing dimensions. The installation of the client ODI Studio is easy. Besides loading data, we do most of our transformations in ODI. In our DW/BI solution, ODI is the main tool to integrate the data in a daily batch way. Most of the functions are very straightforward, like the data model, mapping, package, and load plan. Thus, a new user could get started very fast. | This solution has improved our overall time to value for data ingestion. You can use Talend as a stand-alone application without customization to collect data and generate reports over dashboards. It's got great functionality. The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days. We have contacted their technical support. They are great. They offer very professional help. If I need some technical answer, they are very professional. They are quick, professional, and very accurate. A helpful feature for us is the integration with NoSQL databases. 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. |
Cons | |
The performance of the user interface is in need of improvement. Overall the product is fine, but sometimes its reports unknown errors while we compile ETL scripts. It would be really good if Oracle considered enabling the tool to integrate with some other platforms that are deprecated simply for commercial reasons It lacks a suite of tools suitable for fully processing data and moving it into decision support warehouses. The stability of the software could be improved. Sometimes, the software just crashes. If there was an add-on tool to hide the performance issues and solve them for me, then I might be interested in that as it would provide me value. I rate it a seven out of 10 because there is room for growth because ODI is still new, in comparison to Informatica, which is a mature product. Technical Support could be better. | Inter-version compatibility is a problem, and migration projects between versions are required. There used to be many Youtube channels that offered Talend training, but now there don't seem to be any. The solution should offer more online training resources. The profiling perspective needs improvement. Instead of using it in the studio, we are using a different tool which is also provided by Talend. It's redundant. If I compare Open Studion to other solutions, their interface is robust but not so fancy looking. This is an area that could use improvement. I would like to see an updated interface. The price for Talend Data Integration should be less expensive. 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. 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. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
We found that the cost compared to other integration tools is a little high, but the solution works great. | Talend is free and you can download it. Pricing and licensing are fairly straightforward. It is reasonably priced and managed. |
