"Talend Open Studio's installation process is easy. One just needs to install Java before installing the product"
"Open Studio's best features are that it's user-friendly, even for beginners, and very easy to implement."
"Talend is safe to use because it is very restrictive. It is easy to use when one learns how to manipulate data with SQL."
"The initial setup of the product was very easy."
"There are many architectures: hybrid, cloud, and on-prem."
"This is a user-friendly solution that is easy to use."
"Talend can connect to multiple data sources, including relational data sources, ERP, CRM, and others."
"The solution is very scalable. It can handle a lot. We have encryption plus integration servers running on that platform currently."
"The most valuable part of the solution is the ease-of-use and ease of deployment."
"It is a seamless and sophisticated tool."
"The solution is stable. We haven't had any serious technical issues."
"Good performance and reliability."
"The most valuable feature is the low-code platform."
"The Business Studio interface based on SCA Standards helps to show the business logic at first look and improve code maintenance."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten…On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy, I rate the initial setup a nine."
"Talend Open Studio has a lot of capabilities, but there is some restriction. For example, if we want to connect to an SAP system, Open Studio cannot do it. We need to go with an enterprise version. Additionally, the monitoring features could improve."
"Having additional training materials, such as a video tutorial, would be an improvement."
"The pricing could be lower. They should work to make it more affordable."
"I think my biggest problem with the tool is that the errors are very hard to debug."
"It doesn't have the ability to keep the repository of the source code (visual pipeline). It can be integrated with Git."
"I would say that writing to JSON is kind of a pain. It reads from a JSON file pretty well, but writing to a JSON file is not so great because its components are not good."
"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."
"We need more components to be more efficient. We use a lot of components, such as Salesforce, and it's not easy to use. There's are minor bugs and it's not easy to use some of the features."
"Improve Business Studio's stability to further minimize development time."
"There is room for improvement on the learning side."
"This solution's cloud could be improved. I don't know whether it was because we didn't have the internal expertise or if it was the product itself, but since they came later—I think only two or three years into the cloud—after many other iPaaS that had been in the cloud for longer, I feel that maybe they haven't matured in terms of the cloud."
"Could be more user friendly in the development area."
"There are multiple plugins which increase the number of product installations."
"I would like the solution to be integrated into the cloud."
"The container-based image is too large and this makes auto-scaling difficult."
"They don't support out of the box - you have to buy adapters or you have to have the technology."
