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.

Offers predefined rules and easy to migrate data with minimum customisation of rules
The customization of the data needs improvement. We need to build basic SQL queries rather than being able to do it within the tool. We need to be able to analyze the SQL queries and then rerun them based on customer usage. We should be able to tune the existing process by using simple SQL queries based on the customer's requirements. In future releases, I would like to see more features around Preload and postload reports. From the end-user point of view, it is not very feasible to read. I need to know how the data has been migrated. I need to know whether the complete data has been migrated, only the required data has been migrated, and how it was migrated. So the postload reports will give validation between the source data and the target source. It would give exact picture of the data migration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I think the integration feature is probably one of the key features in Informatica MDM...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The product seems stable enough."
"The user interface which is very easy to use if we have any problems to solve."
"​The tool manually checks on applying business rules and helps to implement them."
"The ability to aggregate and put together data from around fifty sources into one environment allows us to have a preview of everything in a single place, which is something we did not have previously in our company."
"The MDM solution is capable of integrating multiple systems, so it helped us to solve the purpose of centralizing the depository as well as the standardization of mass data."
"The user interface is flexible and the visibility of the data flow is amazing."
"The connectivity and their whole suite are valuable features because whether we need data cleansing or data mastering, we get it all in one platform and there's no need to test different cloud vendors and then integrate with one solution since Informatica is a one-stop shop."
"The customer service and support is good."
"The major benefits of Syniti Data Quality stem from the productivity and flexibility it offers to users."
"Syniti has built-in 80% of the solution, and we only need to customize 20 to 25% of the features. It is easy to run and pre-load reports."
"With Syniti Data Quality, you can integrate SAP and directly fix errors from Syniti Data Quality instead of logging into SAP and then fixing them."
 

Cons

"Certain shortcomings in the product's UI make it an area where improvements are required."
"There are a small number of UI bugs that occur on occasion."
"I would like to see better visuals for business users, such as a dashboard where they can precisely track where problems are."
"There is no doubt that it is very expensive, but the brand value comes at a cost."
"Informatica MDM can improve the data catalog and data marketplace."
"We currently have issues with real-time integration."
"It could be improved by including a buffer that saves data when there is a connectivity issue."
"I would like to see more functionality added so that it is a bit closer to how much you can do with Informatica PowerCenter."
"The customization of the data needs improvement. We need to build basic SQL queries rather than being able to do it within the tool. We need to be able to analyze the SQL queries and then rerun them based on customer usage."
"The loading mechanisms and administration processes, particularly in setting up connections and deploying the system, need improvement."
"In Syniti Data Quality, data extraction is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"It would be good if Syniti Data Quality could integrate more AI in the future."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive. That's probably the biggest drawback. The business has heartache paying the license, but that's mainly because they don't realize what value it brings. The key thing about the MDM solution is that it is in the backend, and no one sees what it is actually doing. You don't know it is a problem until it is not there."
"Informatica Cloud Data Quality is a costly solution."
"We are quite happy with the licensing model."
"Informatica MDM recently changed its pricing model. It's usage-based but I don't have much insight into the current pricing."
"Our customers sometimes are able to negotiate a much better price for Informatica Cloud Data Integration based on their relationship with the vendor."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price, and ten is high price."
"It's an expensive solution."
"The product has a high price point."
"I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The solution is expensive."
