Featured Reviews

Duke Obasi - PeerSpot reviewer
Usefulness of data enrichment features, which can help improve data quality and accuracy
It works as we use it. We've been using it for quite some time, even if we look back ten years. We make use of the features it provides, and we're continuously exploring more. For instance, it excels in data quality, data matching, and cleansing. It performs admirably in these areas.
WesamHabboub - PeerSpot reviewer
Stands out for its user-friendly interface, robust community support, competitive pricing and strategic approach to improving data accuracy
Its greatest asset lies in its user-friendly interface, specifically within the Talend Open Studio, known for its ease of use and familiarity among users. The robust community support proves invaluable when encountering challenges, providing a reliable resource for issue resolution. Moreover, the pricing structure stands out as highly competitive compared to other offerings in the market, making it a cost-effective choice for users. The most valuable feature lies in the capability to assign data quality issues to different stakeholders, facilitating the tracking and resolution of defective work. This functionality enables a streamlined process for identifying, assigning, and subsequently addressing data quality issues.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This solution is particularly useful for data enrichment."
"The solution enables robust data matching, merging, survivorship, and Data Stewardship that can be a part of data quality workflows or true master data management."
"tLogRows are also great for finding bad data."
"It’s easy to monitor the processes. Every morning I’ll open the Talend Administration Center to check the status of the process. Within seconds I’m able to see which process ran successfully and which have failed and why they failed."
"​This product speeds up the unit testing and QA for specific test scenarios. As a result, the development output quality can be evaluated and adjusted.​"
"The numerous components provided by Talend mean you’re able to create jobs quickly and efficiently."
"I really like the fact that there are no out-of-the-box solutions regarding the development of jobs. Other vendors may have modules which cleanse your addresses. In Talend, you have the freedom to completely develop the process yourself. This can be tricky, but it also makes it fun."
"The most valuable feature lies in the capability to assign data quality issues to different stakeholders, facilitating the tracking and resolution of defective work."
"The features that I find to be the most valuable are the extensibility, the integration, and the ease of integration with multiple platforms."
 

Cons

"I would rate my experience with the initial setup a six out of ten, with one being very easy and ten being extremely challenging. So, there is room for improvement in the setup process."
"Finding assistance with issues can be spotty. With Python, there are literally millions of open source answers which are recent and apply to the version that we are using."
"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."
"Needs integrated data governance in terms of dictionaries, glossaries, data lineage, and impact analysis. It also needs operationalization of meta-data."
"Heap space issues plague us consistently. We maxed it out and it runs fine, then it doesn’t, then it does."
"The performance is one area that Talend Data Quality could improve in because large volumes take a lot of time."
"In terms of the solution's technical support, the interactions were satisfactory, but there is room for improvement, especially in managing expectations."
"The ability to change the code when debugging the JavaScript could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is in the midrange. It's not cheap, but it depends on the licenses you require."
"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's a subscription-based platform, we renew it every year."
"We did not purchase a separate license for DQ. It is part of our data platform suite, and I believe it is well-priced."
"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."
"I would advise to first take a look and at the Open Studio edition. Figure out what you need and purchase the appropriate license."
