Featured Reviews

Rama Subba Reddy Thavva - PeerSpot reviewer
A low-code/no-code platform with a user-friendly UI
We couldn't implement or use some of the latest functionalities, like Spark. Palantir Foundry is scalable, but it is costly compared to other cloud providers. The solution is more suitable for small and medium businesses. It might be difficult for large enterprises. I rate the solution’s scalability a seven out of ten.
Sushrit Moundekar - PeerSpot reviewer
Has supported building flexible data pipelines and streamlined ETL orchestration
There should be a dedicated support team for Talend Open Studio. We do have a support team, but at times it is critical for us to fix certain things within one or two hours. Usually, the support team takes some 12 hours, which is the standard edition of support. If we could have round-the-clock support, we would be able to resolve many issues which we encounter during the development part. The initial setup for Talend Open Studio is a little complex. We need to have a dedicated person who has an understanding of Talend Open Studio as a tool. It takes some level of expertise, so it is not an easy process, but once we have a dedicated associate who is knowledgeable in that particular field, it becomes comparatively easier.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like the data onboarding to Palantir Foundry and ETL creation."
"The interface is really user-friendly."
"The data lineage is great."
"Encapsulates all the components without the requirement to integrate or check compatibility."
"It is easy to map out a workflow and run trigger-based scripts without having to deploy to another server."
"Great features available in one tool."
"The ease of use is my favorite feature. We're able to build different models and projects or combine different projects to build one use case."
"The security is also excellent. It's highly granular, so the admins have a high degree of control, and there are many levels of security. That worked well. You won't have an EDC unless you put everything onto the platform because it is its own isolated thing."
"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 product is easy to install and configure. It is one of the best tools for data integration."
"We have contacted their technical support. They are great. They offer very professional help. If I need some technical answer, they are very professional. They are quick, professional, and very accurate."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"Talend Open Studio's installation process is easy. One just needs to install Java before installing the product"
"The most valuable features of Talend Open Studio are customization and integration."
"The Talend Studio connected to the Talend MDM (Master Data Management) is the most valuable feature. Talend Studio is used to create a job stream that connects to multiple data sources, matches, compares or creates a golden record for overall identification. It also has a good catalogue of objects that can be dragged and dropped for building models."
"The most valuable feature of Talend Open Studio is the tMap component. There is a lot of functionality in one component."
 

Cons

"The solution's visualization and analysis could be improved."
"There is not a wide user base for the solution's online documentation so it is sometimes difficult to find answers."
"Compared to other hyperscalers, Palantir Foundry is complex and not so user-intuitive."
"The frontend capabilities of Palantir Foundry could be improved."
"The solution’s data security could be improved."
"Some error messages can be very cryptic."
"Cost of this solution is quite high."
"The major hindrance with Palantir Foundry is that being a very closed product, the cost optimization and costing are not exposed to the end users."
"Inter-version compatibility is a problem, and migration projects between versions are required."
"The initial setup for Talend Open Studio is a little complex. We need to have a dedicated person who has an understanding of Talend Open Studio as a tool."
"It is complicated to understand the configuration process for email components."
"Technical support and customer service need to be improved."
"The high price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The solution should offer better integration with other products."
"The server-side should be completely revamped."
"I rate Talend Open Studio's stability an eight out of ten. Talend has some problems sometimes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's expensive."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"Palantir Foundry has different pricing models that can be negotiated."
"Palantir Foundry is an expensive solution."
"For Talend Open Studio, there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing cost. Talend Open Studio is a bit expensive, in my opinion."
"Talend Open Studio costs about 11,000 a year."
"Open Studio has a basic license and additional costs for services, including customer support and technical assistance."
"We are using the free version of the tool, because the enterprise version is a little expensive."
"Right now, because we're using the open-source version, there's no cost."
"The solution will be more expensive if you have a low data volume and a large number of developers."
"Pricing and licensing are fairly straightforward. It is reasonably priced and managed."
"The paid version of this solution has a very high price, but even with the limitations, the Community version works fine."
