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.

Effective data transformation and integration in complex environments with high functionality
Something that could be improved in WSO2 Enterprise Integrator is that the problem is not a lack of capability or functionalities. The problem is that it is a very complex environment. To put your hand on this environment is a very demanding task. This is the real problem. The problem is not about the product, but about the complexity to manage, to configure, to decide what to do. I have some experience using SAP R/3. It seems to me something similar. When you have to configure a situation with a client, especially for a client not in an industrial sector, but in a service sector, it is quite usual that you are in trouble for some reason. This is always the story that I found in the implementations I have done. Maybe there are only three or four big problems, in some other cases there are more than that, but this is the situation usually. For WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, not the same, but I must say it is quite often there is a need to put together some pieces and make it work in a coordinated way.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It allows the creation of identical tasks that can be applied across multiple tables, ranging from 100 to even 1,000 tables."
"I like that Informatica MDM has robust matching technology. Informatica MDM is also porting the external Java applications for validations. I can consider that a must-have. It is also exposed to Rest API calls, and we can engage in real-time integrations with any third-party systems."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration is good overall."
"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."
"I definitely would recommend the Informatica solution to other people."
"We use parts and standardization for most of our testing. We purchase the US Postal Service address database, which is updated periodically. Many useful tools, such as Google Maps, can detect and mark new businesses or changes in business locations. Informatica captures and updates this information. Some periodic maintenance is involved, but setting it up is not overly complicated."
"With my firm, our use of Informatica Cloud is primarily to implement a set of financial integrations from various accounting systems into a Salesforce environment, and by leveraging Informatica Cloud Mapping Designer, we were able to create sets of reusable templates that were source agnostic, making supporting the integration for hundreds of customers feasible with just a small team of integration specialists."
"Informatica MDM has data quality, mastering the data's capability."
"The built-in connectors help with quick connectivity to the platforms, and we are using this for both our banking and insurance clients."
"The stability is excellent."
"The installation process is easy."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."
"The connectors have been the most impactful features for handling integrations. I can use these connectors when I need specific connectivity with a third party, like a core banking system in BFSI. I don't need to do all the development. I take the specific connector, put in the IP address and password, and it takes care of everything."
 

Cons

"The solution doesn't directly connect to any of the analytical tools."
"We'd like to see the microservices, which don't run yet because the solution is not yet fully cloud-based."
"Not all transformations are supported, unlike PowerCenter."
"Metadata querying is right now not there in Informatica Cloud Data Integration."
"One area that could use improvement is the speed of the web interfaces. At present, they are very slow. I think it is essential that we are original and robust on-premises."
"The error information provided is not informative, as compared to Power Center."
"The user interface could be more user friendly with a simplified mapping task."
"It is not easy to set up and configure the tool."
"Most of the issues we run into with the WSO2 Enterprise Integrator deal with customizations."
"The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
"There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced."
"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."
"The configuration of the product is not an easy task for everyone."
"The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing is difficult to understand, but the team is always available to explain anything. They are very helpful."
"It's a very expensive solution"
"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."
"The licensing costs attached to the solution are pretty high, but then, with the cloud model, the prices depend on what it provides for the value of money, which I feel was very high."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"We pay for a yearly subscription."
"Informatica MDM is very expensive. Apart from licensing fees, they have broken down their products into multiple products, and they charge for each and every product. If the data is huge, they charge for the data. At times, we have to use third party services for data cleaning, and they charge for that as well."
"Informatica MDM's pricing is not cheap but comparable to other vendors."
"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."
"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"It is a low-cost solution."
"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."
"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
