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.

A solution that offers good performance, good stability, and a straightforward setup
We are a reseller of the solution. We handle on-premises deployment. The solution is very similar to IBM. It may have a bit more integration capabilities that IBM doesn't have yet, but they are similar. In terms of which would be better, it would come down to the customer's requirements. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. All of our customers are very happy and very impressed with the product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I am impressed by the solution's interface."
"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."
"We went with Informatica because we have functional and non-functional requirements with respect to the market data management of our customers and Informatica is a suitable product for their needs."
"The tool's most valuable feature is bulk upload. We upload files in CSV or Excel format."
"It has become an easy way to exchange information through any cloud application."
"Informatica is user-friendly, stable, and scalable."
"The valuable feature is metadata management. If you want to trace sensitive data, you can auto-classify them. You can search for sensitive information through EDC. Using Discovery, you can identify if there is any type of data set."
"The most valuable feature is the building of mockups and tasks."
"With regards to choosing flash versus traditional storage, it's just so much simpler to manage and users get so much better performance from flash."
 

Cons

"Once the data is masked, we won't be able to reverse it back to its original value."
"When we compared Informatica to SAP, we realized that we lose the ability to integrate easily with our SAP business applications"
"There could be a lot more application integration."
"We would like to have accessibility to the repository."
"We haven't had many technical issues. We don't use all of the components of the tool that are more complex and error-prone."
"It would be great if the cloud version could match the full range of capabilities available on-premise."
"If I want to scan the metadata from the data lineage or the Python code, such areas can get tedious in the tool."
"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."
"The pricing model could use improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"It is cost effective and an easily accessible tool."
"I'm not sure about the most recent pricing trends, but I don't believe it's significantly different from PowerCenter. I believe it is nearly the same."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration is famously known for its high price. The vendor targets large enterprises, and not medium or small companies. These large companies, and organizations, handle large amounts of data. If you go into any large bank, such as American or Canadian banks, these banks use this solution because it is more reliable, secure, and has more functionality."
"Pricing is determined by the number of licensed users as well as the number of Core CPUs."
"Informatica MDM's pricing is not cheap but comparable to other vendors."
"I rate the product's pricing a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest price and ten is the highest price."
"Licensing is difficult to understand, but the team is always available to explain anything. They are very helpful."
