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

"The tool's most valuable feature is bulk upload. We upload files in CSV or Excel format."
"The solution has improved our organization by providing data quality."
"The advanced features like task flow and conditional integration are particularly useful."
"In the latest version, I like the outlay of the business roles creation. I like seeing that visualization as you're building it, as opposed to going through metatables or XML mappings. We liked that piece, and it makes it more intuitive for the business."
"I find this solution to be the most efficient, immersive, and robust."
"The match and merge functionality is invaluable for discovering golden master data records."
"What I do appreciate about the cloud is the transparent update cycles with minimal downtime, all managed within the cloud environment, which definitely provides a better user experience."
"Axon has something called Overlay, which can be used to extend the technical lineage."
"One of the most valuable features in Stibo Systems Product Master Data Management is security."
"It ensures that your systems are compliant with GDPR, and that saves a lot of time."
 

Cons

"Some functionalities can be a challenge in the cloud."
"I have encountered some issues using the substitution, which is one of the techniques of data masking."
"This is a costly solution. We have several customers who evaluate it but then look for other solutions because of the cost. At present, Informatica MDM comes as an on-premises or cloud-based solution. I would like to see them offer a SaaS-based MDM model. I think they are working on it."
"The pricing model is problematic."
"The initial setup is very, very difficult."
"Informatica is very expensive."
"I used to use this tool more but recently we have been using another tool that we feel is better because it handles spatial data. Informatica Cloud Data Quality could improve by adding the ability to handle spatial data."
"I would like to see support for more data sources."
"Stibo Systems Product Master Data Management can improve by being more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is quite flexible."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"Pricing is determined by the number of licensed users as well as the number of Core CPUs."
"The solution is very expensive."
"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."
"The price is high, but the competitors are even higher, like Collibra."
"The product is highly-priced."
"The solution is expensive."
