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.

Deliver short-term projects effectively while aiming for comprehensive customization
Regarding Syniti Master Data Management's features, there is a concept called data as a product. Looking at that term, Syniti Master Data Management lacks a few things as it is a customized solution we provide to the customer. The customer demands include four to five different elements, such as data cataloging or metadata management, data lineage, data quality, Master Data Management, and data freshness, which need to be integrated into one solution that currently I cannot see in any software. The main focus is more on Master Data Management. I recently had an interview where they pointed out that I only own 10% of what they are looking for. This also applies to Syniti Master Data Management, which is more focused on creating golden records, but at an organization level, they need a more concrete solution from just one platform or vendor. Other solutions such as Informatica are moving toward Customer 360 degrees and Product 360 degrees, integrating easily into environments, while Syniti Master Data Management is somewhat lacking in customizing solutions based on customer needs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature that allows me to search across the entire organizational database and then look through what objects are in which tables and which locations is quite handy."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to extract metadata from various sources- be it an old SaaS application or the latest cloud application."
"Data synchronization tasks."
"The serverless capability and the packaging application of the solution are valuable."
"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. It takes away all the ambiguity around data integrity issues or all the process challenges which happen when every stage of a process uses a different source as master data."
"Informatica Persistent Data Masking can mask production data for different users, ensuring that only authorized individuals can access sensitive information."
"It is a highly scalable solution."
"We primarily used Cloud Data Profiling to connect with Cloud Data Governance, a tool also used by Teva. This integration allowed users to access data quality results within the data governance catalog."
"The central data repository feature in Syniti Master Data Management is wonderful; it is an excellent feature, in my opinion."
 

Cons

"The integration with older technology and cloud quality needs improvement."
"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."
"Error analysis becomes difficult as finding the exact location of the error in the logs is challenging."
"Informatica Axon needs more integration connectors so that it can connect to systems and different kinds of datasets."
"In certain domains, I am looking for material-level match features that are not customizable. The current solution requires code-writing and tweaking, while other solutions offer material-level matches."
"Informatica MDM could improve the interdependency with integration. The solution sometimes becomes a bit difficult to change considering a lot of interdependency with the integration. There can be some improvement in the workflows and they can introduce more artificial intelligence."
"In the on-premises version, features like web service consumer and web service provider are available, but these functionalities are currently unavailable in the cloud edition."
"I definitely will not recommend Informatica Cloud Data Quality because it's very hard to manage the licensing model and the price is very high."
"Syniti Master Data Management is more focused on creating golden records, but at an organization level, they need a more concrete solution from just one platform or vendor."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My understanding is that Informatica is quite expensive compare to other tools that are available in the market."
"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"Informatica is very expensive."
"Licensing is difficult to understand, but the team is always available to explain anything. They are very helpful."
"Its pricing model can be improved."
"it's expensive, but if you're looking for a stable solution, Informatica MDM is a good one to choose."
"It's a costly solution"
"I rate Informatica MDM's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
