    Chose Talend Data Integration

    There are code building and code conversions internally in most of these ETL tools. The repository is an overhead in the ETL process. There may be a need for a full-time administrator to manage deployments and monitor jobs. With Talend, it seems to be transparent with the pure …

    This tool fits all kinds of organizations and helps to integrate data between many applications. We can use this tool as data integration is a key feature for all organizations. It is also available in the cloud, which makes the integration more seamless. The firm can opt for the required tools when there are no data integration needs.

    Pros
    Qlik
    • Talend Data Integration allows us to quickly build data integrations without a tremendous amount of custom coding (some Java and JavaScript knowledge is still required).
    • I like the UI and it's very intuitive. Jobs are visual, allowing the team members to see the flow of the data, without having to read through the Java code that is generated.
    • Dynamically table creation from new source.

    Cons
    Qlik
    • Pricing for sure can be the area for improvement.
    • Real time processing is slow as compared to other tools like Abinitio.
    • While developing batches, it crashes a lot. It may be the issue with me, but I wanted to highlight it.

    We use Talend Data Integration day in and day out. It is the best and easiest tool to jump on to and use. We can build a basic integration super-fast. We could build basic integrations as fast as within the hour. It is also easy to build transformations and use Java to perform some operations.

    Good support, specially when it relates to PROD environment. The support team has access to the product development team. Things are internally escalated to development team if there is a bug encountered. This helps the customer to get quick fix or patch designed for problem exceptions. I have also seen support showing their willingness to help develop custom connector for a newly available cloud based big data solution

    In comparison with the other ETLs I used, Talend is more flexible than Data Services (where you cannot create complex commands). It is similar to Datastage speaking about commands and interfaces. It is more user-friendly than ODI, which has a metadata point of view on its own, while Talend is more classic. It has both on-prem and cloud approaches, while Matillion is only cloud-based.
