Sr. Consultant cum Assistant Manager & Offshore Lead at Deloitte
Handles large data volumes effectively and offers competitive pricing
There is a lot of improvement required, as we still face some cache issues most of the time, which is a challenge that we expect to see resolved in the future. Additionally, there is some limitation when we are working with a tool, especially regarding In and Out parameters, and I feel that this aspect should be improved going ahead. We face issues with the API side, as Cloud Application Integration cannot handle large volumes; according to the API page, there is a limitation of 500 records or 500 MB. The AI integrated into the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services solution is called Application Integration, where we still face challenges when dealing with huge volumes, as previously explained.

Has accelerated AI experimentation and simplified transition from prototype to production at scale
The Karini team is responsive and continuously innovating. Scaling this responsiveness is critical to meet the rapid development of generative AI technologies. Karini’s Forward-Deployed Engineers provide instant feedback to Karini’s engineers, and the deployment of enhancements or novel developments continues to keep pace with the overall acceptance of our customers. I expect that demand will intensify quickly, and Karini’s capability to provide near-real-time enhancements is critical to our ability to meet that demand.

"I know that there are two good features, APN and ServiceNow but we haven't explored all of its features yet."
"It's got a reputation in the industry as one of the best solutions for master data management. So, it's what we see in the Gartner top right quadrant as the best product in that space."
"The most valuable feature of Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services for me is the availability of connectors."

Cons

"Their UI needs improvement. Their scorecards and reporting also need improvement. Their data quality reporting, especially their dashboards and scorecards, is lackluster at best. Its reporting capabilities are limited. If you want to do anything beyond its limited reporting capabilities, then you're going to have to use an external reporting tool such as Power BI or something like that."
"The price modeling could be more flexible."
"The stability and the integration of the solution have room for improvement."
"For products Master Data Management or related to MDM or Data Governance, there is no way by which we can directly practice, and my team struggles at that point."
"They could improve technical support because it is not good enough at the moment."
"Needs to implement the new workflow with simple steps and a quick visualization with a 360 view of the data."
"There are also some technical issues sometimes with integrations because clients have a lot of different types of data sources."
"We'd like to see the microservices, which don't run yet because the solution is not yet fully cloud-based."
"Scaling this responsiveness is critical to meet the rapid development of generative AI technologies."
"Scaling this responsiveness is critical to meet the rapid development of generative AI technologies."
"Karini is still expanding its list of features. As we add new features, additional connections and technologies around AI must be incorporated to ensure we stay current and continue to improve our platform."

"it's expensive, but if you're looking for a stable solution, Informatica MDM is a good one to choose."
"My understanding is that Informatica is quite expensive compare to other tools that are available in the market."
"It's pretty high for us. It's more on the higher side, like low to middle high."
"It's a very expensive solution"
"The price is neither too high nor too low."
