I personally use Talend for Data Integration and ETL on a daily basis. It is versatile and Jaspersoft uses it in their 3rd-party product for ETL called JaspersoftETL.
There are free versions of Talend products, called "Open Studio," as well as Enterprise versions. Talend Open Studio is their ETL tool and Talend Data Quality is their cleansing data product. What is really nice about the Open Studio products are the many data connecting components and the ease of use in doing data integration.
As already mentioned by others Jaspersoft uses a version of Talend and call it Jaspersoft ETL. The version is an older version normally than is available from Talend itself. I would suggest using the latest version of Talend itself.
There are two versions, TOS (Talend Open Studio) and the Commercial versions.
TOS is free and also in different versions like DI (Data Integration) and MDM (Meta Data Management). The last one includes the possibilities of DI (ETL) but also Data Profiling where you can monitor the quality of your data.
Talend has several versions and the Commercial versions have as benefit the integration and sharing between the versions and also scheduling and monitoring of jobs included which is real neat.
So for starting the best is to take TOS MDM get to know it and how to use it. If you are going for real professional use in production I would suggest to take the commercial versions because it save you a lot on management and development on scheduling and monitoring of jobs.
I am currently working with TOS MDM, and also have worked with TOS DI in combination with Jaspersoft Server, because we already have the management and monitoring arranged in another way and is out of my scope.

Jaspersoft is having tieup with talend. With jaspersoft commercial version they provide talend. Hence if you plan to use jaspersoft it would be more recommended to use talend rather than kettle.

I have limited knowledge of Jaspersoft, from my research it is primarily a visualization tool and it does not have the back end cleansing capabilities that Pentaho offers. If you need to clean up your data, I think Pentaho is the better of these options.

Hi,
I've used all tools that other persons have spoken above, but if you really want an integrated open source tool, you have to use pentaho. Infact with it you can:
- read data
- clean data
- present it, in olap analisys or flat mode
so without try to integrate different software (talend, jasper and so on) you can choose a already integrated platform with 0 integration cost
In general, Jaspersoft has more of a focus on reporting and analysis and Pentaho is much better at data integration, ETL and workflow. My experience with Jaspersoft is that it uses Talend whereas Pentaho uses Pentaho Data Integrator (Kettle). Kettle was developed by Pentaho. Jaspersoft uses Talend Open Studio but has some missing functionality.

Pentaho definitely offers stronger data cleansing \ preparation when compared to Jaspersoft, but then you've got the frustration of having to get both Pentaho and Jasper iReport to speak the same language every time you add an additional dataset. Neither of these possibilities is a good solution for really messy data.
Are you limited only to those two tools? I have had some good experience with Sisense's cube features for data preparation, and then you have all the visualization and dashboard features in the same platform. Otherwise I would look into DW as suggested by others.
Both JasperETL and Pentaho Kettle can help you clean and prepare your data for reporting. Since you plan on using Jaspersoft for creating the reports you'd be better off using JasperETL. Two reasons for that; if later on you decide to upgrade to a commercial version of Jaspersoft you'd simply import the ETL jobs into the enterprise edition and take advantage of the additional features. Additionally there are plug-ins for JasperETL that can be helpful for reporting. One last tip: try Jaspersoft Studio it has replaced iReport with a lot more functionality while backwards compatible with iReport created jrxmls.

Dear Ariel,
Hello.
We had not used Jaspersoft or Pentaho before. However based on brief reading on Gartner BI magic quadrant report, it sounds like Pentaho could better.
Again it is much dependent on which part of the data needs to be cleaned (e.g. misspelling of name vs. dates), and the nature of data cleaning process (names formatting vs date formatting) needs to be done.
Alternatively your colleague can also try QlikView, which has basic ETL functionalities and QlikView is a magic quadrant leader.

I have not used Jaspersoft to comment on it.
Pentaho Kettle is a good ETL tool and open source too. Learning curve is
small and has a GUI IDE. Kettle is written in Java.
At a generic level, for ETL selection
a. What is the volume of data?
b. Complexity of the transformation needed?
c. Performance of the overall system
d. Format of data (Pentaho Kettle is good to support all the 4 pretty
well)
I have no experience on Jaspersoft, but with Pentaho Spoon I can have my job done. With a couple of hours learning, I can start to author my own transformation. If your job is staight-forward and relatively simple, you can definitely use Pentaho. I am not sure about more complex jobs. FYI.

The data cleansing capability of the two products is very comparable. But it really depends on the volume of data and the time allowed to clean and load the data.. I would not suggest either product for large data volumes
Neither really specialize in data cleansing. Data cleansing is as much a process as it is a technology. Depending on the size of your dataset, Excel can be a powerful tool in the identification of the "unclean" data. From there you will want to set up a process around making sure your data either conforms to your cleanliness standard from the source (fix it before it is a problem) or make filtering out unclean data part of an ETL process that is invoked on it's way to your reports.
I would venture that Pentaho (Kettle) would have a more mature set of tools that could assist you in your quest. Either way, you will need a detailed understanding of your source data.

My vote goes to Jaspersoft. Here are my thoughts.
Community support is more in Jaspersoft as compared to Pentaho. Also, the
community members are more active of Jaspersoft community, hence if you are
using CE, the chances of problem resolution is much more.
Jaspesoft uses R. R is more advanced and more capable in Predictive
analysis.
Jaspersoft scores higher than Pentaho in Mobile BI compatibility. They have
BI for iOS, Android platforms. Functionality wise and user interface wise
Jaspersoft mobile BI is better. They even have an opensouce Apple iphone
application. Pentaho users have to often rely on third party tools to
enhance mobile BI experience.
Summarizing Jasper has a heavy focus on reporting and analysis. It has a
better web 2.0 user interface than Pentaho and is generally easier to use.
It benefits from better marketing, informational web sites, and
documentation. Overall, it makes researching and finding what users need
easier than Pentaho. Whereas Pentaho focuses on data integration, ETL, and
workflow automation. It has a user interface that is more difficult for
business users than is Jasper’s.
Hope this helps.
For any additional information, revert to me please.
Pentaho is going to be much better for ETL especially if dealing with any sort of big data. Their Pentaho Data Integration (PDI) tool is solid. They also have a reporting tool.
If it's just a matter of cleaning up data to output (regardless of the
reporting system), then it mainly depends on whether you are comparing the
community version or subscription version. I think Pentaho is stronger in
the community version while Jaspersoft is stronger is the subscription
version.
Since you are looking to design reports using iReport (Jaspersoft), I would
lean towards using Jaspersoft to clean the data. The outputs of the cleanup
process will line up nicely with the inputs for iReport.

Only have background in Pentaho usage so can’t speak to how easy Jaspersoft is to use, however, I have to say Pentaho DI is excellent and is one of the most straightforward ETL tools I’ve seen in 15 years of working in BI. It is an extremely user friendly interface and has an impressive and passionate user community who can help you if you get stuck, as well as excellent documentation on how to do things. I’d thoroughly recommend using Pentaho DI

You report design and generation tools are not generally ideally
suited for ETL purpose. Depending on the complexity of data and
volume, you can choose one of the leading ETL tools in the market.
There are some Open Source system based ETL tools are also available.
Please check it under Eclipse platform. Otherwise I would recommend
one of these tools: Informatica MDM / Power Center, MS SQL Data
Extractor, SAP Data Integrator or Oracle Warehouse Builder. You may
also choose to write your own script and PL/SQL if the cleansing does
not have much challenges and straightforward.
Jaspersoft has moved on now and the latest version of iReport is called
Jaspersoft Studio, an IDE based on Eclipse. Jaspersoft ETL is not a bolt-on
ETL tool likes Pentaho's, it is an OEM of the Talend Data Integration
Product. Talend is an all-encompassing ETL tool which not only allows you
to bring data from virtually anywhere (including Google Analytics,
Salesforce, SAP etc) but the intuitive workflow designer makes it easy to
get up and running. The deployment of completed workflows can only be
described as a breeze and its worth downloading and having a play ..

Pentaho, on the other hand, primarily (I think) is a BI Company and
therefore as a consequence its ETL tool does not stack up to the Jaspersoft
Offering. But like all these things the proof is in the pudding ..

Actually we have been using Pentaho ETL and we are quite satisfied with this. We wouldn’t have the minimum hesitation to use in even in complex projects.
