Nachteile: Its a great tool to use, nothing to dislike about the product. Nothing to dislike, everything is good. All the features are really good.

Kommentare: One of the best opensource BI tool, also well integrated with existing platforms. It will be interesting to see how will it get integrated with fast evolving Big data technologies. Pentaho 7.1 is step in right direction.

Vorteile: - We mature DI (Data integration) module
- Easy to learn design console (Spoon)
- wide community support
- Very well integrated with different platforms
- Innovating fast in Big data world specially Pentaho 7.1

Kommentare: Using this kind of software brings ease and accurate data reports that helps the company on decision making

Vorteile: Easy to use, compatible in many database such as mysql, ms sql server, different type of output to choose such as excel, html, richtext, etc.

Nachteile: Some version are slow on initializing and fetching data such as Pentaho report designer version 5 and above. Unlike version 3 which has smooth process, that was base on my experience.

Vorteile: Drag and drop functionality makes it easy to create transformations. Able to analyse data from multiple sources quickly and efficiently. Jobs can be scheduled in order to run specific tasks and transformations at a certain time.

Nachteile: Can take some time to figure out how to use it as there are lots of components involved. Can be a bit slow or run into out of memory issues for bigger queries but upping the virtual memory in the configuration can fix this issue.

Vorteile: Pentaho has nice schema browsing features whereby one not need know anything about the underlying schema in order to design a transformation. Automatic multi-threading by default.

Nachteile: When outputting to a table, Talend has an option to Drop if exists, and create. Pentaho has a Truncate [prior to load], but no option create the table as part of the data flow nor an option to drop an existing table.

Vorteile: Once you understand the basics of this program it is easy to use. The bonus with this program is that if someone write a report, they can share the script with you. The updated 6.1 version is definitely an improvement.

Nachteile: If you are not at all familiar with writing script, this program can be very challenging. No real user manuals are included.

Kommentare: Best product for reporting and analyzing.

Vorteile: Best reporting tool.Features like data reporting, integration, data mining and ETL.

Kommentare: Fast execution of ETL processes in the case of massive data migration with a very low margin of error

Vorteile: -Automate the steps for execution
- It has a friendly graphic environment
- Easy to use
- Wide range of tools

Nachteile: -High basic requirements for execution.
- lack of detailed comments in error messages.
-It does not have documentation in Spanish language.

Vorteile: Ease of use and abundant features to get things done. Helps a lot in filling the various gaps in data sources.

Nachteile: Not so user friendly, takes sometime for new user to get around the application and figure out the various tricks and tools available

Vorteile: This tool can be installed on any operating system. It has a simple interface, so it takes less time to learn.

Nachteile: The design of the software is pretty old! Needs lot of improvement when compared to its competitors.

Kommentare: I really like using it but chose to use other apps like tableau due to lack of features.

Vorteile: Pentaho makes it really easy to generate some complex data driven visualizations.

Nachteile: Pentaho doesn't have a lot of options for pulling data from public APIs.

Vorteile: Penatho brings a visual interface to processes which would traditionally only be accomplished by many, many lines of code (which it can also do). Many powerful inputs from servers, software, and CRM systems. It also has very detailed error handling, which makes it easy to troubleshoot.

Nachteile: Support is mostly wiki/community based, with instructions for particular steps being lacking, outdated, or missing completely. Outputs could be simplified as well, with even a basic CSV output being slightly more complex than it should be, compared to other steps.

Vorteile: Many features.
I like to use the reporting PRD, I think that it is the best.
I use Spoon/Kettle that is a ETL tool to process data.

Nachteile: Many bugs. Maybe is because of Community Edition.
We have many difficult to install in cloud.
The layout of some report that run in developing, don't run in production.

Vorteile: I like its ease of use; it is very easy to build an ETL pipeline after the initial learning curve. I also like the variety of modules. There are a lot of powerful modules, and you will mostly find the module you want. User-defined code is very flexible; it's possible and very easy to plug in user-defined Java code. When there is no module implemented for desired function, this feature comes handy. Multithreading is also easy. The transformation can be set to run multiple copies in parallel.

Nachteile: Occasionally, Pentaho Spoon (GUI) crashes, and a restart is required.

Vorteile: This software is wonderful, with it you can obtain performance and scalability. As well as manage and schedule reports. It is very efficient which means that you save a lot in daily reports...

Vorteile: The only BI software that is compatible with Firebird SQL, I have not found any other compatible BI.

Nachteile: Particularly I found it difficult to start learning, the documentation regarding the data integration (spoon) is scarce.

Kommentare: Represents the solution to meet the needs of extraction, manipulation, validation and data loading from multiple sources of origin and in different environments can solve many problems. For the creation of the Dimensions Tables. Transformation of these data and Upload of that data in another site.

Vorteile: It allows to extract the information from an OLTP database, transform the information through a dimensional model and load the results of the transformation into a database to develop specialized reports which Pentaho also has. It includes tools to perform queries, generate reports and reports, interactive analysis, dashboards, extraction, transformation and data loading, data integration.

Nachteile: It requires a large investment, because its correct implementation is not an easy task and these systems consume many resources.

Vorteile: - Free PDI tool....its free so no discussions with finance
- PDI is actually very effective ETL application with a easy to understand flow
- Community is actually helpful

Nachteile: - Free BI tool is just slightly easier than building a website from scratch but a lot harder than using any other BI tool.
