Ataccama DQ Analyzer vs Talend Data Quality comparison

"It is also easy to deploy."

"The data profile itself is excellent. You can understand the quality of the data in layman's terms."

"The Studio is easy to understand."

"The features that I find to be the most valuable are the extensibility, the integration, and the ease of integration with multiple platforms."

"The file fetch process is impeccable."

"The numerous components provided by Talend mean you’re able to create jobs quickly and efficiently."

"The solution is customizable."

"We are able to get emails from URLs very easily using this function when others fail."

"It is saving a lot of time. Today, we can mask around a hundred million records in 10 minutes. Masking is one of the key pieces that is used heavily by the business and IT folks. Normally in the software development life cycle, before you project anything into the production environment, you have to test it in the test environment to make sure that when the data goes into production, it works, but these are all production files. For example, we acquired a new company or a new state for which we're going to do the entire back office, which is related to claims processing, payments, and member enrollment every year. If you get the production data and process it again, it becomes a compliance issue. Therefore, for any migrations that are happening, we have developed a new capability called pattern masking. This feature looks at those files, masks that information, and processes it through the system. With this, there is no PHI and PII element, and there is data integrity across different systems. It has seamless integration with different databases. It has components using which you can easily integrate with different databases on the cloud or on-premise. It is a drag and drop kind of tool. Instead of writing a lot of Java code or SQL queries, you can just drag and drop things. It is all very pictorial. It easily tells you where the job is failing. So, you can just go quickly and figure out why it is happening and then fix it."

"With its frequency function, we were able to pick a line of business to be addressed first in one of our conversion projects."

"They could focus more on marketing the product. The current marketing strategy is not working."

"Although DQA can fetch data from most of the commonly used data sources, it has limited modifiers to get data, meaning that the number of technologies from which the data can be acquired is limited. For example, DQA does not support fetching data from Twitter or Facebook. Many competitors have this feature."

"If we encounter issues, it’s most likely when using the Talend Open Studio. The studio can be slow, get stuck, or crash. But again, it can be caused by the resources of your machine or your connection with the repository. If we encounter issues with the Studio we restart the Studio. In emergencies, we create and use a new workspace."

"SQL for displaying underlying data in non-match results does not work."

"If the SQL input controls could dynamically determine the schema-based on the SQL alone, it would simplify the steps of having to use a manually created and saved schema for use in the TMap for the Postgres and Redshift components. This would make things even easier."

"When we upgraded to Version 6.4.1, we tried using a GIT repository instead of a SVN repository. After a few incidents where things disappeared and changes were not saved, we decided to go back to a SVN repository."

"Heap space issues plague us consistently. We maxed it out and it runs fine, then it doesn’t, then it does."

"It would be more helpful if it offered dynamic dashboards that could be directly used by clients for better analysis."

"In redundancy analysis, the query is failing to bring non-matched records. This query is an internal script. There is no way (that I know of) to fix this syntax error for future runs."

"NullPointerExceptions are going to be the death of me and are a big reason for our transition away from Talend. One day, it is fine with a 1000 blank rows, then the next day, it will find one blank cell and it breaks down."

"There is no need to buy a license. You can just download it and use it for free."

"Moreover, the pricing structure stands out as highly competitive compared to other offerings in the market, making it a cost-effective choice for users."

"It is cheaper than Informatica. Talend Data Quality costs somewhere between $10,000 to $12,000 per year for a seat license. It would cost around $20,000 per year for a concurrent license. It is the same for the whole big data solution, which comes with Talend DI, Talend DQ, and TDM."

"It's a subscription-based platform, we renew it every year."

"I would advise to first take a look and at the Open Studio edition. Figure out what you need and purchase the appropriate license."

"We did not purchase a separate license for DQ. It is part of our data platform suite, and I believe it is well-priced."
