We performed a comparison between Qlik Compose and Talend Open Studio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."As long as you pick the solution that best fits with your requirements, you won't find that performance is a problem. It's good."
"The technical support is very good. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"I have found it to be a very good, stable, and strong product."
"It's a stable solution."
"Qlik Compose is good enough. It is user-friendly and intuitive."
"It is a scalable solution."
"One of the most valuable features was the ability to integrate multiple source systems that mainly used structured IDBMS versions."
"There were many valuable features, such as extracting any data to put in the cloud. For example, Qlik was able to gather data from SAP and extract SAP data from the platforms."
"Open Studio's best features are that it's user-friendly, even for beginners, and very easy to implement."
"The product is easy to install and configure. It is one of the best tools for data integration."
"I can connect with different databases such as Oracle Database or SQL Server. It allows you to extract the data from one database to another. I can structure the data by filtering and mapping the fields. It is very user-friendly. You need to know the basics of SQL development or SQL queries, and you can use this tool."
"The most valuable features are the ETL tools."
"The rapidity of integration with data may be one of the valuable features."
"The initial setup of the product was very easy."
"Talend is safe to use because it is very restrictive. It is easy to use when one learns how to manipulate data with SQL."
"It has got so many connectors. It is intuitive and easy to use."
"I believe that visual data flow management and the transformation function should be improved."
"It would be better if the first level of technical support were a bit more technically knowledgeable to solve the problem. I think they could also improve the injection of custom scripts. It is pretty difficult to add additional scripts. If the modeling doesn't give you what you want, and you want to change the script generated by the modeling, it is a bit more challenging than in most other products. It is very good with standard form type systems, but if you get a more complicated data paradigm, it tends to struggle with transforming that into a model."
"The solution has room for improvement in the ETL. They have an ETL, but when it comes to the monitoring portion, Qlik Compose doesn't provide a feature for monitoring."
"I'd like to have access to more developer training materials."
"When processing data from certain tables with a large volume of data, we encounter significant delays. For instance, when dealing with around one million records, it typically takes three to four hours. To address this, I aim to implement performance improvements across all tables, ensuring swift processing similar to those that are currently complete within seconds. The performance issue primarily arises when we analyze the inserts and updates from the source, subsequently dropping the table. While new insertions are handled promptly, updates are processed slowly, leading to performance issues. Despite consulting our Qlik vendors, they were unable to pinpoint the exact cause of this occurrence. Consequently, I am seeking ways to optimize performance within Qlik Compose, specifically concerning updates."
"For more complex work, we are not using Qlik Compose because it cannot handle very high volumes at the moment. It needs the same batching capabilities that other ETL tools have. We can't batch the data into small chunks when transforming large amounts of data. It tries to do everything in one shot and that's where it fails."
"My issues with the solution's stability are owing to the fact that it has certain bugs causing issues in some functionalities that should be working."
"There should be proper documentation available for the implementation process."
"I rate Talend Open Studio's stability an eight out of ten. Talend has some problems sometimes."
"If I compare Open Studion to other solutions, their interface is robust but not so fancy looking. This is an area that could use improvement. I would like to see an updated interface."
"The profiling perspective needs improvement. Instead of using it in the studio, we are using a different tool which is also provided by Talend. It's redundant."
"The server-side should be completely revamped."
"It is not as visually appealing as some of the other tools."
"In the next release, Open Studio should include cloud storage as an input."
"It needs better installation configuration for other databases. Although the installation allows you to select another database, this doesn't mean that all connection points in the application point to the database selected. You actually need to do a search through the entire install to locate the configuration settings and change them."
"The physical appearance of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
