Pros

1. Comparison to other open source product the growth and future planning is impressive. 2. Interaction of sales/presales/ps/csa is good. Some times some people bluff without knowing ground reality, stop doing that. 3. customer exposure is great. 4. Travel is plus (take it as cons/pros).

Cons

1. product is highly unstable. If you tell this to customer success/ R&D they dont listen because most of the people come from non talend background. Not their fault. 2. too much diversion into multiple products to en cash on value, but first of all make DI / TC / TBD rock solid. 3. Some people in sales, oh man only talks , no base , just big talks and thats what they get paid for is not it :)

Pros

The acquisition by Qlik (or anyone else) was long overdue and may stop the demise of Talend.

Cons

Talend offers an ageing, outdated technology platform that has not seen a lot of innovation in the last five years. The key components are clobbered together to form an 'integrated platform', that only exists in marketing brochures. Major cloud providers, Databricks, Snowflake, DBT and a few niche players drive the real innovations in the data industry. Talend is still trying to understand what the cloud is about. Studio, REs, TDC & TCDC are all on-prem components (or IaaS of course). The Qlik acquisition may slow down the decay of the Talend platform - IF they invest in rearchitecting the current mess. It won't be cheap, but without it Talend is dead as a herring.
