## Talend Cloud Data Integration Reviews
  ### 1. Moderately useful or productive software

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Logan H. | Territory Sales Representative, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 31, 2022

**What do you like best about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

Talend Cloud Data Integration's security improves data protection. It enables users to scale up and down services as needed. It has good graphic tools with connectors via which I may easily connect to various databases in the installations and cloud. In addition, backup and catastrophe recovery are automated; that's an advantage. This software's pillars are innovation, growth with you, and giving you security, and the risk goes down.

**What do you dislike about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

It has insufficient memory capacity. The performance and speed might be improved. On the other hand, minor limitations include implementing some components such as tParellelize and the yearly pricing of the product. A single license charges it, and a corporation that needs many permits must pay a lot.

**What problems is Talend Cloud Data Integration solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Talend Cloud Data Integration only has simplified data administration and reporting for our clients. I would suggest it to any firm for any date-related work. To be honest, this software does not work well for our company.

  ### 2. High cost and limited functions

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jamie M. | Marketing Media Planning Specialist, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 19, 2022

**What do you like best about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

The only features I liked about this software were the following:

1. The cloud has a comprehensive monitoring solution.
2. Database has good administration; all the information is completely organized.
3. ETL/ETL channels can be created and managed easily.
4. Several functions are related; this allows the work to be done much faster.

**What do you dislike about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

I used this software a month ago, currently, I am not using it because I preferred StarfishETL, the reasons why I do not like Talend are the following:

1. It has very little memory. The speed and performance are very poor.
2. It should have more algorithms, to automatically analyze all the functions that are executed.
3. As several functions are related to each other, there is usually a certain decay when you are performing some type of function individually.
4. Many basic tools have limitations of use.
5. Lastly, it is expensive software.

**What problems is Talend Cloud Data Integration solving and how is that benefiting you?**

To be honest, you can efficiently manage certain roles that improve marketing productivity, plus you can create end-to-end pipelines, making it easy for me to get insights from the marketing department.

**What do you dislike about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

Minor limitation of using some components like tparellelise and the annual pricing of the product as I see the product is priced per single license and for a company that needs multiple licenses needs to pay more.

I have been using the tool for Data integration solutions and happy with the Java interface to be able to provide data driven generic solutions when needed on our business requirements

  ### 9. How thoroughly was this tested?

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jason G. | Data Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 05, 2019

**What do you like best about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

Theoretically, not having to worry about managing an instance of TAC.

**What do you dislike about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

It hasn't worked for us. We spent three months actively trying to get it to work in an attempt to transition from on-prem to cloud and without success.

Dealing with support was fruitless. They recommended we work with their professional services, which we did for a day, where it became evident it was a support issue.

After a couple weeks they finally realized (or admitted) that it was bug we found where the context wasn't being passed along.

However there are other issues still unresolved.

Oh yeah! TAC is smart enough to not try running a task if it's already running. TMC on the other hand is dumb? "Oh, that job is already running? Let me try running it again so it just stacks up!"

**Recommendations to others considering Talend Cloud Data Integration:**

Make sure you have a chance to actually test it before you pull the trigger.

**What problems is Talend Cloud Data Integration solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Well, since we haven't moved from on-prem, we aren't solving any problems or have realized any benefits.

  ### 10. It benefits of all the advantages of the java world

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Shreeya Amrita T. | ITIO Analyst, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 27, 2019

**What do you like best about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

It is a branch of Eclipse and thus it benefits of all the advantages of the java world. The fact that all my teammates can develop locally (with project versioning) and deploy the ETL flow as independent component make teamwork so easy! And debugging in the code view helps to find the source of issues very fast, in fact, faster than any other ETL.

**What do you dislike about Talend Cloud Data Integration?**

Its support service is very general and does not dig in our use cases. And you need a technical team that has at least some notion of java to understand the data types and functions and overall the philosophy of Talend

**Recommendations to others considering Talend Cloud Data Integration:**

Highly Recommended.

**What problems is Talend Cloud Data Integration solving and how is that benefiting you?**

After migrating from ODI, then SSIS, Talend revealed to be best of those solutions. Talend OSDI has a user-friendly interface, is easy to apprehend, has a lot of out-of-the-box connectors and is very easy to deploy as standalone. No server version of the software needed!
