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.

The best features Tray.io offers include excellent visualization capabilities and a dashboard, which stand out to me the most. I appreciate that it is very easy to convert the data we receive from Tray.io into dashboards from Power BI, which is extremely useful. I would also appreciate if in the future Tray.io provides a way to natively convert the data to Tableau. Tray.io has positively impacted my organization as it provides a trusted way to organize data results and share them throughout the company at once. As a multinational and very large company, it is definitely beneficial that those of us in the UK can use the same format that colleagues use in India, and the entire data architecture is framed within a trusted system from an established organization. As far as I know, Tray.io has been operating for the last 12 years, making it a very reliable system.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has multiple valuable features for metadata collection"
"The most valuable features of Informatica Cloud Data Integration for our clients are the AI capabilities within Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services."
"Regarding the features, the dashboards related to data quality profiling are the most powerful tool that we are using, and the integration between EDC and the data quality is very important."
"The program is stable and scalable."
"The scalability is very high."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It has been leading the market with hierarchy management and all the different match concepts and algorithms, and they're very robust."
"From my standpoint, Informatica offers a pretty robust set of scanning tools that can scan a variety of sources of information."
"Tray.io has positively impacted my organization by helping us keep our internal database and this third-party service in sync, and it has really helped us automate a lot of that work because it is fairly straightforward to maintain and develop."
"Tray.io has positively impacted my organization by reducing the amount of redundant tasks that our team performs by approximately 80%, and the numbers are quite significant with the workflows alone, as we are working towards creating and utilizing AI within these workflows as well."
"Tray.io has positively impacted my organization as it provides a trusted way to organize data results and share them throughout the company at once."
 

Cons

"One area where Informatica Cloud Data Integration could improve is in providing more accelerators for certain functionalities."
"There were a few stability issues, but overall it is a stable product."
"It could be a bit more intuitive, rather than technically complex."
"It needs to be a little more intuitive but it’s really not bad."
"The product interface could be improved to be more intuitive."
"Informatica Axon does not provide complete transparency about the level of detailing you need and the logic used in ETL."
"I would like to see more functionality added so that it is a bit closer to how much you can do with Informatica PowerCenter."
"One thing Informatica could improve is the way IPUs are used."
"As our product got more complex, we needed to add more and more complexity to Tray.io in terms of our setup, and that is when the benefits of it being no-code or low-code started to pale in comparison to the cost of making everything slightly more complicated."
"One way Tray.io could be improved, especially for people coming in with no real coding experience, is with more comprehensive error messages."
"I have found that the error management in my main use case with Tray.io is not as effective as we would prefer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's pretty high for us. It's more on the higher side, like low to middle high."
"There is no doubt that it is very expensive, but the brand value comes at a cost. Other MDM solutions in the market that haven't proven themselves like Informatica are also pretty expensive. We need to understand that MDM itself is very expensive to implement. So, Informatica is also pretty expensive. I would rate it a two out of five for being pretty expensive."
"The platform has a premium cost. I rate the pricing as seven out of ten."
"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"My understanding is that Informatica is quite expensive compare to other tools that are available in the market."
"The product is very expensive"
"The pricing is high compared to other tools on the market."
"Our customers sometimes are able to negotiate a much better price for Informatica Cloud Data Integration based on their relationship with the vendor."
