Qlik Talend Cloud vs. Salesforce Data 360

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.

It is well suited for agentforce scenario in our case. Similarly if any orgnization is looking to streamline their data streams and have a single view of all their data, I would definitely recommend Data 360. Also for providing business insights too, the way it is helping us in calculating is very impressive.

• 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.

• Allows use to bring external data into Salesforce as zero-copy
• Is able to present data using standard Salesforce reports familiar to our users
• Allows us to establish multiple relationships between our CRM data and the external data to contextualize the imported data.

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.

I would rate Salesforce Data Cloud's usability a 9 because I do think it is very easy to use. You can easily create new contacts, add notes to contacts, add house information, generate reports, create workflows, etc. You can even have it schedule marketing emails to customers to auto send an email for holidays like Christmas, New Years, etc. It is very user friendly and helps to create a nice customer journey with it all in once place.

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.

While SAP, Oracle, Mulesoft and Snowfake provides data ingestion and analytics, they also require complex configuration and custom work. With Salesforce , we can unify the data within Salesforce system from different sources and this also helps in better decision making. With Salesforce support and help documents the things can become very easy to tackle.

• 3K+ Customer & their credit data, 3K+ product inventory & pricing.
