Managing Partner at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
Offers solid data quality functions and continues to evolve with opportunities in AI integration
Precisely Trillium's best features include being a very comprehensive solution in terms of data quality. There are different types of data quality tools, and what Infogix had before being bought by Precisely focused more on reconciliation, whereas Precisely Trillium actually focused on correcting errors within the data set itself. This is a different perspective on data quality. Some of the functions and features that Infogix did in their data quality solution are different than the functions and features that Precisely Trillium did. The data profiling feature of Precisely Trillium helps improve data integrity for certain clients by emphasizing the principle of bad data in, bad data out. It's important to have a data quality tool to ensure that your data is good because any calculations and business decisions that are made on this data are only as good as the data itself. It's extremely important to have good quality data, and Precisely Trillium serves to ensure the data quality.

Has automated recurring data flows and improved accuracy in reporting
The best features of Talend Data Integration are its rich set of components that let you connect to almost any data design intuitive and its strong automation and scheduling capabilities. The TMap component is especially valuable because it allows flexible transformation, joins, and filtering in a single place. I also rely a lot on context variables to manage different environments like Dev, Test, and production, without changing the code. The error handling and logging tools are very helpful for monitoring and troubleshooting, which makes the workflow more reliable. Talend Data Integration has helped our company by automating and standardizing data processes. Before, many of these tasks were done manually, which took more time and often led to errors. With Talend Data Integration, we built automated pipelines that extract, clean, and load data consistently. This not only saves hours of manual effort, but also improves the accuracy and reliability of data. As a result, business teams had faster access to trustworthy information for reporting and decision making, which directly improved efficiency and productivity. Talend Data Integration has had a measurable impact on our organization. By automating daily data loading processes, we reduced manual effort by around three or four hours per day, which saved roughly 60 to 80 hours per month. We also improved data accuracy. Error rates dropped by more than 70% because validation rules were built into the jobs. In addition, reporting teams now receive fresh data at least 50% faster, which means they can make decisions earlier and with more confidence. Overall, Talend Data Integration has increased both efficiency and reliability in our data workflows.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"Precisely Trillium's best features include being a very comprehensive solution in terms of data quality."
"Talend Studio has the ability to connect to almost anything to integrate data from files, databases, web services, etc."
"I'm very passionate about this solution because if you look at any other tool that costs around $200 - $300,000, like Delphix which costs you a million dollars, Talend is very cheap and is almost is at par with what others can do. There is one thing which Delphix does which Talend cannot do, but overall, I would say apart from that, if you're looking for a solution, you should give it a try."
"You move data from one source to another without problem and apply some business rules in data."
"The features that I like the most are the simplicity of the interface, and the ability to quickly develop with a predefined component."
"They're very competitive in terms of performance, which is a good selling point. It has very rich features. It provides a very rich feature set in the application."
"Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) transformations are open source and is a valuable feature."
"​It lowers the amount of time in development from weeks to a day.​"
"I like idea of storing the results of Data Quality jobs in a DB and having the ability to run reports in the DB to show a dashboard of quality metrics."
 

Cons

"There's always room for improvement with Precisely Trillium. The hottest thing right now is AI, and leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance your data quality is always a plus."
"They don't have any AI capabilities. Talend DQ is specifically for data quality, which only has data profiling. With Talend DQ, I cannot generate any reports today, so I need an ETL tool. It provides general Excel files, or I have to create some views. If instead of buying a new tool, Talend provides a reporting capability or solution, it would be great. It will reduce the development effort for creating these kinds of reports. We also manage the infrastructure for Talend. From the licensing perspective, for cloud, they only have seat licenses where one person is tied to one license, but for on-premise, they have concurrent licenses. It would be really awesome if they can provide concurrent licenses for the cloud so that if one person is not there, somebody else can use that license. Currently, it is not possible unless a person deactivates his or her license and moves the same seat license to someone else. We are one of the biggest customers in the central zone of the US for Talend, and this is the feedback that we have provided them again and again, but they come back and say that they aren't able to provide concurrent licenses on the cloud. In version 7.3, there is a feature for tokenization and de-tokenization of data. This is the feature that we are looking for. It is useful if somebody wants to see what we have masked and how do we demask it. This feature is not there in version 7.1. There are also a few other capabilities on the cloud, but we don't yet have a big footprint in the cloud."
"Due to using the open-source version of Talend Data Integration, which lacks a scheduler, our current approach involves developing jobs in Talend, exporting them as Java packages, and utilizing an external scheduler, such as Windows Scheduler, to manage the scheduling process."
"Heap space issues plague us consistently. We maxed it out and it runs fine, then it doesn’t, then it does."
"Data management could also encompass APIs and real-time streaming data integration."
"NullPointerExceptions are going to be the death of me and are a big reason for our transition away from Talend. One day, it is fine with a 1000 blank rows, then the next day, it will find one blank cell and it breaks down."
"I think the memory issues we faced when using the 3GB RAM compared to the 4GB RAM computers caused lot of issues."
"The performance is one area that Talend Data Quality could improve in because large volumes take a lot of time."
"What's missing in the Talend MDM Platform is that it's not maintaining technology references. For example, my company needs a reference case if the platform has been implemented for a configuration that's similar to the client's required configuration. Currently, the client is still reluctant to roll out the Talend MDM Platform at a wider level because there's still no reference received from the Talend team."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price of the Talend Data Management Platform is reasonable. The other competing solutions are priced high. Gartner Magic Quadrant identified other solutions, such as Informatica, that are far more expensive."
"The product pricing is considered very good, especially compared to other data integration tools in the market."
"I have been using the open-source version."
"The tool is cheap."
"The licensing cost for the Talend MDM Platform is paid yearly, but I'm unable to give you the figure. I would rate its price as four out of five because it's on the cheaper side. I'm not aware of any extra costs in addition to the standard licensing fees for the Talend MDM Platform."
"The solution's pricing is very reasonable and half the cost of Informatica."
"I would advise to first take a look and at the Open Studio edition. Figure out what you need and purchase the appropriate license."
"It is cheaper than Informatica. Talend Data Quality costs somewhere between $10,000 to $12,000 per year for a seat license. It would cost around $20,000 per year for a concurrent license. It is the same for the whole big data solution, which comes with Talend DI, Talend DQ, and TDM."
