What do you like best about Talend Real-Time Big Data Platform?

The host of components available is great and most of them are available with the free open studio edition which should suffice most use cases. The option to add custom components is a value add. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Talend Real-Time Big Data Platform?

It at times isn't as intuitive and tends to become a difficult tool to work with in the intricate level of details that need to be established. Maybe this is a good thing. But with my experience using other ETL tools this seems like a big problem. The other major problem is a runtime schema propagation which is missing on this tool but exists in IBM's (super expensive) offering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
