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.

A product that is easy to install and offers good stability to users
The API part of the solution is an area in the solution where improvements are made since I see that TIBCO is currently trying to revamp its tool by focusing more on redesigning it. There was a tool called Mashery, which is an API management tool that was acquired by TIBCO. TIBCO Cloud Integration is not a user-friendly tool when it comes to the installation phase or for maintaining the systems since its architecture is really complex. I think in the UK, one of the major telecom providers for whom I had done the infrastructure setup uses TIBCO Cloud Integration. Basically, TIBCO Cloud Integration is a bit difficult to install and manage the platform, but I feel there are improvements in the tool's latest version, especially on the API management side. Instead of moving to the higher version and converting the older version of TIBCO Cloud Integration or the legacy platform covered under TIBCO, they still use it because the architecture is completely different, and the components that the product has are completely different from what the new version of the product offers, making it one of the major reasons why TIBCO is coming up with a new version of the product that will be released in the upcoming year. The legacy platform of TIBCO will run on the cloud directly. TIBCO plans to develop a unified tool that is supported on the cloud and in an on-premises environment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Informatica MDM is hierarchy management. It's not something that's typically available and effective within ERPs."
"The staging and hierarchical features are the most valuable."
"The Mapping Designer allows for declarative ETL development (visual scripting) that leverages a wide array of different transformations."
"Product-wise, compared to other on-premise tools, Informatica Cloud Data Integration can be deployed on-premises and cloud."
"The way that the solution scans is very useful."
"We are gaining our customers' confidence, and they rely on us for data classification."
"The technical support services are good."
"The feature I found most valuable in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services is the mapping; you just drag and it maps the data, so mapping is very easy and it's no code."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The initial setup was straightforward and because we often work with one of the most interesting companies in integration in Italy, what the program offers is absolutely outstanding."
"I like that it is a very good integration tool with many other things; TIBCO is very good for cloud integration."
"I am really impressed by TIBCO's integration of any level of complexity."
"I like that it is a very good integration tool with many other things. TIBCO is very good for cloud integration"
 

Cons

"Informatica MDM can improve the data catalog and data marketplace."
"The cloud version of Informatica, although easier and more advanced than PowerCenter, still requires a deep dive to fix bugs."
"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."
"If a new solution has the same features and less investment, it would be worth considering."
"Informatica MDM's UI is not intuitive enough."
"One area that needs to improve is the user experience because it is very complex."
"The cost of Informatica MDM is expensive and has room for improvement."
"Informatica Axon needs to improve its interface."
"The deployment was rather complicated."
"Integrations could be better. Although integration is good, we have faced some block issues."
"It is an extremely powerful solution, but it is very expensive, even though it only offers adequate functionality."
"TIBCO Cloud Integration is not a user-friendly tool when it comes to the installation phase or for maintaining the systems since its architecture is really complex."
"Integrations could be better. Although integration is good, we have faced some block issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is cost effective and an easily accessible tool."
"Informatica MDM recently changed its pricing model. It's usage-based but I don't have much insight into the current pricing."
"In terms of the licensing for Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, we had the option of paying based on the number of users and paying based on the volume of data, and we went with the data volume licensing option. Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services isn't as expensive as CIG. The pricing for it is okay, so I'm rating it a four out of five in terms of pricing. We did use the email verification and address validation services which weren't part of the contract, so we had to pay additional fees for those services."
"Cost-wise, I think it is on the higher side, and that is why we are looking for some better options. Licensing costs are huge compared to other players in the market and for my company."
"It's offers value for money. They're more competitive with respect to pricing and offerings."
"It's a very expensive solution"
"It's a costly solution"
"Informatica MDM's pricetag should come down. They have to cut some costs."
"We don't pay for a license."
