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 is you have native access to the external databases.""The most valuable part of SAS/ACCESS is what it is made for: connecting to remote systems that are not part of your physical SAS environment.""The most valuable aspect of the solution is the ease of access to the data in those databases."

More SAS Access Pros →

"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.""The most valuable feature is the data loading and scripting language""The features that I like the most are the simplicity of the interface, and the ability to quickly develop with a predefined component.""I like everything about this product, but the biggest thing is the ease of use.""I think Talend is one of the easiest tools for faster implementation compared to other tools.""The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand.""We can develop our own code if we do not see the functionality we need.""The most valuable features of the Talend Data Management Platform are the components."

Cons
"I can't really recall any missing feature or general improvement that is needed. We don't really add too many new kinds of databases and therefore our needs are already met.""The pricing model needs to be reconsidered and adjusted.""The solution can provide access to the newer databases that come out sooner."

More SAS Access Cons →

"The stability is good, but the performance is slower when I work on a huge amount of data.""The documentation from version to version could be more accurate.""They lack in memory capacity.""The product must enhance the data quality.""The sales and market department could improve the Talend Data Management Platform.""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.""The solution's memory sometimes bottlenecks and that can be challenging.""We'd like to see more connectors it the future."
