"The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with backend systems." "Great monitoring tools and has its own alert framework." "The standard adapter with EBA abilities is the most valuable feature. It has good process integration." "With the latest version what I find to be the most valuable are the REST, SuccessFactors, and Ariba Network adapters." | "A helpful feature for us is the integration with NoSQL databases." "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." "The initial setup was quite straightforward. The deployment took between two and three days." "You can use Talend as a stand-alone application without customization to collect data and generate reports over dashboards. It's got great functionality."

Cons | |
"The responsiveness of technical support needs to be improved." "In terms of technical support, it would be helpful if they handled the tickets a bit faster when queries are sent to them." "The monitoring governance offered by SAP is too technical and needs to be geared more toward business users." "It does not have all of the industry-standard solutions available in PO and it is not plug and play, so we have to do a lot of development." "The older version of the solution will no longer be supported." "The cloud capability features need improvement." "I feel that support is an area that needs improvement. They need to improve the response time and address the customer's issues as soon as possible." | "The price for Talend Data Integration should be less expensive." "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 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." "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." "Inter-version compatibility is a problem, and migration projects between versions are required." "Having additional training materials, such as a video tutorial, would be an improvement." "The technical support and documentation need a lot of work to come up to standard." "It gets the job done but it's a bit slow." |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
"The cost of SAP products is quite high but the quality is really good." "The pricing for this solution is fine." "There are fees in addition to the licensing." | "Talend is free and you can download it." "The paid version of this solution has a very high price, but even with the limitations, the Community version works fine." "Price could be lower. It is getting too expensive when compared to some other solutions, which is actually a little bit concerning." |
