Logging has reduced costs and now provides fast queries and dashboards for lambda troubleshooting
Axiom Team excels at querying, with a query language that makes it very easy to assemble queries. The platform also makes it simple to create dashboards from logs. Axiom Team dashboards are used to monitor execution time, pricing, and errors. Axiom Team has positively impacted the organization by greatly reducing logging costs.

Cloud data catalog has streamlined lineage and quality while leaving more automation to improve
I have not explored IDMC's automation capabilities driven by AI and metadata too much at the moment, but it is on the cards. We are basically creating the foundation, as the whole migration has taken place recently and it is still early days. I think Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) is evolving, and as the vendors move forward, they pick up new concepts from each other. I have seen that products leapfrog each other, and from my experience over the years, the big players tend to copy features or add enhancements based on industry trends. I feel whatever the tool does not have now, there is a feedback loop allowing us to request new features, and we continually ask for different ways to do things as we have a pipeline into the product management team. It is difficult to say what additional features I would prefer to see in the next release of IDMC. I would appreciate more automation on the lineage front, with more AI to seamlessly join independent sources and create seamless lineage between different technologies, such as from file into database A into a different database and landing up in a reporting system such as Cognos, Qlik, Qlik Sense, QlikView, or Power BI.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Axiom Team has positively impacted my organization mainly in terms of cost, as we have reduced our logging cost by approximately half."
"Axiom Team has positively impacted the organization by greatly reducing logging costs."
"The scalability of the solution is excellent."
"The product's most valuable feature is the ability to select the data flow and lineage."
"I have rated the stability a ten out of ten due to a high level of satisfaction."
"The advanced features like task flow and conditional integration are particularly useful."
"Axon has something called Overlay, which can be used to extend the technical lineage."
"The dictionary, the search, and the ratings are without a doubt the most beneficial components of this solution."
"The valuable feature is metadata management. If you want to trace sensitive data, you can auto-classify them. You can search for sensitive information through EDC. Using Discovery, you can identify if there is any type of data set."
"This solution allows you to easily access and make use of information that you have in your on-premises environment."
 

Cons

"Axiom Team can be improved by ingesting logs faster, if possible."
"There's certainly room for improvement. One crucial area is generating detailed reports on file statuses. Presently, this is represented visually, often as graphs or charts. Such reporting could offer comprehensive insights into the areas that demand attention and further scrutiny."
"The stability and the integration of the solution have room for improvement."
"It is not easy to set up and configure the tool."
"Not all transformations are supported, unlike PowerCenter."
"I would like to see support for more data sources."
"We currently have issues with real-time integration."
"The configuration process is pretty lengthy and challenging and could be made easier to understand."
"Informatica MDM has limitations with connectivity."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing structure is good, but having to pay for extra drivers to be used in an ICS environment makes me a little nervous."
"The price is very high and has become a big concern for our customers who require the solution in order for their business to function smoothly."
"Our customers sometimes are able to negotiate a much better price for Informatica Cloud Data Integration based on their relationship with the vendor."
"Informatica MDM is a costly solution because it comes as a bundle. They are also globally positioning themselves and are definitely working on very upgraded technologies. If someone wanted to do it on the cloud, they have a lot of flexibility because they upgrade themselves according to the current needs. It definitely comes with a lot of features and that's the reason why it's costly. The licensing cost should be approximately one million dollars. It's about four to five times that of other vendors."
"You can purchase licenses for this solution at different intervals. For example, annually or every three years. They recently changed their terms for licensing and now it is more flexible."
"It is cost effective and an easily accessible tool."
"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"The price is high, but the competitors are even higher, like Collibra."
