Paxata vs. SAP Agile Data Preparation

Paxata can be highly useful to someone who doesn't like/have any experience with writing codes to treat data before using it as input into BI dashboards. Paxata can accelerate data cleaning in environments where a large amount of unclean data is generated and business decisions on the go are required. It performs really well while dealing with natural language.

SAP is very well suited for handling large amounts of data and making data and trends visible to all.

• Visualize distributions in large data sets effectively which enable the user to quickly spot outliers and treat them appropriately
• Provides recommendation to merge datasets based on matching column values
• The cluster and edit feature in my opinion is its most powerful feature and reduces cardinality in column with text

Incentivized

• This software is a highly scalable solution to work on loads of data which can be worked upon easily.
• The software offers a beautiful self-service user interface and experience. Additionally it also provides extensive and powerful data quality and exploration tools.
• The Action suggestion feature in the tool is an easy way to understand potential data quality issues like duplication of entries or location validation.

Incentivized

• Doesn't provide recommendation on how to impute values
• There is a lag quite often
• We can say whether a column has errors or quality issues in the first look

Incentivized

• It would be helpful if SAP had cleaner Excel and Access export capabilities
• It would be helpful to have more training modules available online
• The customer service ticket system is time-consuming

I have no had any major issues, just a couple minor ones.

Paxata is a much better tool when it comes to handling natural language but Talend provides recommendations on how to impute missing values and outliers. Paxata provides recommendations on dataset tie-ups and joins but Talend doesn't provide any such recommendations. In paxata you can visualize distribution of data in a column and filter them by dragging and selecting the section you'd like to retain

Our organization chose SAP Agile Data Preparation because of its brand name and the pricing. The software was feasible for the organization as it provides loads of feature as compared to other software's at a reasonable price. Additionally, SAP Agile Data Preparation is powered by SAP HANA so that is a prerequisite to data preparation freedom. Also, at the implementation stage the software was working really efficiently in terms of features, durability and performance.
