Talend Data Integration Reviews

I am currently looking for a more flexible tool which fits into a more traditional software development environment.

Talend Data Integration is easy to use and learn. Talend Data Integration can perform bulk data migrations of up to a few million records without any issues. We have not tried it or had use case which required more than a few million records at a time. It works particularly well with databases and CRM software.

It is very useful for disparate data sources like Excel, Microsoft Access, SQL server or any relational database. Also, cases where you need data transformation, a lot of pre-processing, Talend is very good. Its tMap is very useful. It also has various transformers, and we can add custom logic for various data fields.

It's perfect for data warehouse implementation.

If your organisation or department works regularly with ETL jobs or sources data from multiple locations and needs to integrate them to provide for better data compatibility, then Talend Data Integration is a great tool and I would strongly recommend it. This mostly applies to established corporations, and not startups as the licensing fee is quite high.

Talend as an ETL tool is robust and flexible because of the transparency of the behind the scene Java code. Developers can debug and optimize the code easily because of visibility. The big data component of talend makes it the IDE for working with file formats like JSON and log files.

Talend gives the ability to pull data using WSDL/API and also to make data available as REST API. Talend jobs are platform independent and can be deployed easily. IDE is eclipse based.

Talend Integration is a complete data integration suite which can cater to departmental as well as enterprise data integration needs.
