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

"I am a fan of Informatica and it is definitely a product that I recommend because of its inbuilt capabilities."
"Over the last decade, Informatica has proved to be the best MDM solution that is available in the market."
"Product-wise, compared to other on-premise tools, Informatica Cloud Data Integration can be deployed on-premises and cloud."
"The metadata management of Informatica is great."
"The best thing about Informatica Axon is that it integrates with the Electronic Data Capture and the Axon system."
"It allows the creation of identical tasks that can be applied across multiple tables, ranging from 100 to even 1,000 tables."
"Data synchronization tasks."
"MDM doesn't require a separate IDQ."
"The learning curve for this solution is very good."
"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."
"I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture."
"It's a very complete product. It allows us to network security and add more layers of security to the system."
"The solution basically conforms to our standards."
"The installation process is easy."
"While I am still exploring the solution, I've so far been pretty satisfied with it."
"WSO2's analytics capability is good, considering the ELC support they provide."
 

Cons

"It is expensive."
"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."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration could improve the price by making it less expensive."
"Logical views are a little bit behind in comparison to the on-premise version."
"The tool is quite good overall, but sometimes the number of modules can be overwhelming. If the development interface could be optimized to have fewer modules, it would be greatly beneficial."
"Informatica should simplify the rules for setting classifications and user access management permissions. It's too complex to define, configure, and make work."
"Although we are very satisfied with the design of the UI, executing tasks with it can be difficult."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"They should introduce better pricing for small companies."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The scalability is not strong. If you want to scale it you have to install multiple servers."
"I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."
"Most of the issues we run into with the WSO2 Enterprise Integrator deal with customizations."
"The customization can be a bit difficult."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
"We had some challenges with the installation of this solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's an expensive solution."
"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 licenses attached to the solution are highly priced."
"The product is highly-priced."
"The licensing price of the product depends on the organization's requirements."
"It's pretty high for us. It's more on the higher side, like low to middle high."
"It is cost effective and an easily accessible tool."
"Pricing is determined by the number of licensed users as well as the number of Core CPUs."
"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."
"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."
"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."
"It is a low-cost solution."
