Modular structure and AI features stream new reporting processes
One of my clients has a requirement; they want to integrate metadata into the process, which means, for example, if I just want to implement a new field into my database, that field needs to be reflected throughout, let's say, 200 mappings. This highlights the need for a data-driven approach. My experience with technical support from Informatica is quite interesting; I would rate it as nine out of ten for Informatica PowerCenter kind of products or the Informatica integration products, because my team can do some hands-on using their free licenses or one-month kind of products. However, 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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support services are good."
"It is a highly scalable solution."
"It's good for tool management, maintaining the golden record of customer status."
"The user interface is flexible and the visibility of the data flow is amazing."
"It allows the creation of identical tasks that can be applied across multiple tables, ranging from 100 to even 1,000 tables."
"The advanced features like task flow and conditional integration are particularly useful."
"The most valuable features of Informatica Cloud Data Integration for our clients are the AI capabilities within Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services."
"Performance and flexibility-wise, they're very user-friendly."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle BPM is that it has a lot of out-of-the-box integrations. The solution also provides a lot of adapters which is very helpful."
"It is easy and cheap."
"The most valuable feature is the complete workflow through the BPM, from making it available as a generated code based on the backend, deploying it in the test environment, and then going to production."
"The benefit from the tool is we can develop it quickly and easily use it for middleware services. We can publish the services so other applications can consume them. This is providing us some reusability and a type of security."
"Currently, we define the tasks, and based on certain decision rules, the tool decides the task priorities and the time frame of the task."
"It is easy to use in a business processing suite."
"The Workspace is a full, rich application where most users can find what they want. It shows them a list of their work."
"I find the data lineage features most valuable."
 

Cons

"Interoperability is one area where EDC has room for improvement. It was challenging when the faculty took over the data world and had specific vendors they wanted to use, and some were not particularly open platforms."
"We cannot sell the product directly with an additional layer."
"I feel the out-of-the-box APIs or the API management could be improved slightly from their current state. It could be more user-friendly."
"The pricing model is problematic."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration could improve the price by making it less expensive."
"There's no direct way to connect to Amazon APIs from Informatica Cloud."
"The main issue preventing Brazilian companies from migrating to Informatica Cloud Data Integration from on-prem is the price."
"Managing the licenses with the on-premises version was difficult."
"There are delays in offering the latest technology, so there is a need to be more responsive to technological changes."
"You have to maintain it manually."
"Pricing is an area that could use improvement."
"Oracle BPM should allow integration with external, common APIs."
"The time it takes to get from deployment to production could be faster."
"Existing APIs in the product need to be fine-tuned, made more robust and flexible for adoption."
"The product must reduce its cost."
"We have had some issues with version migration, from one version of processes to another. We would have to call Oracle Services but on a day to day, we didn't have any issues."
