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.

Integrates well and helpful support
Ultimus Adaptive Business Process Management has good integration with all the other tools we have been using in our company. We use the data that other tools provide in our implementation. We have developed several processes here in the company, such as requests for change, request development, and buying processes. The tool allows you to modify the business rules without the need to modify the source code, the administrator can move the process one step to another without needing to be implemented in the logic of the automation, this can be done from the administration console Or with the integration EIK, there is a wide number of options for the administrator who gives you great flexibility in your administration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Informatica Cloud is easy for development and maintenance."
"This tool actually, for the first time, when you talk to data governance teams, gives a holistic view of what a data governance team can do with this tool."
"I have rated the stability a ten out of ten due to a high level of satisfaction."
"The serverless capability and the packaging application of the solution are valuable."
"I rate the solution's scalability a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is the rule specification."
"It comes with lot of features and is a one-stop-shop solution for integration, data modeling, and data governance."
"The data mapping capability is a valuable feature."
"Ultimus Adaptive Business Process Management has good integration with all the other tools we have been using in our company, and the tool allows you to modify the business rules without the need to modify the source code, giving great flexibility in administration."
"Development is easy on the Ultimus platform."
 

Cons

"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."
"There could be a lot more application integration."
"The biggest pain point for us is the documentation. Typically, you have to go through knowledge forums and knowledge groups to find out about the syntax issues for interfacing with new products. Typically, you've got to deal with someone who has been through the pain before. Their documents are not really up to date with current innovations happening in the industry. As big as they are, you can't really expect it, but that's our pain point."
"Its look and feel needs improvement. It has a lousy look and feel. Informatica PIM is designed specifically for the retail industry. They need to make sure that it is also applicable to all the other industries and verticals."
"The downside of Informatica Cloud Data Quality is that it requires a developer to write rules and maintain the systems. This creates a significant cost and time burden."
"Support response time could be better."
"If a new solution has the same features and less investment, it would be worth considering."
"We currently have issues with real-time integration."
"We are looking for a feature that can resign and move the process from one step to another step."
"Ultimus is not good at handling cash transactions. They should add a mobile application in the next release."
"The tool does not save the reprocessing of the steps, this has to be done with own implementations, stores the whole story of a process instance but in a non-processable format for statistics without doing prior job."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Informatica is very expensive."
"The solution's pricing model is easy, but it is very expensive."
"The licenses attached to the solution are highly priced."
"So, there are plans for licensing. There are subscription-based and usage-based licenses. Also, there are licenses for exceptional analytics, etc. In short, there are different models of licensing for every enterprise."
"We switched to Informatica PIM because it was cheaper than the Oracle solution. It is cheaper initially, but they will bundle it later. This is what happens in the industry."
"You can purchase licenses for this solution at different intervals. For example, annually or every three years. They recently changed their terms for licensing and now it is more flexible."
"Its pricing model can be improved."
"I rate the product's price a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is the cheapest and ten is the most expensive. The product is a bit expensive."
"Ultimus could stand to lower the price. Other tools are cheaper."
