Deduplication, enrichment, and survivorship features are great for making golden records
The solution has really helped us with deduplication. We get multiple contacts and leads created by different users. They come down from Salesforce to the solution and we have auto-merge rules that basically deduplicate. The solution merges similar leads and contacts based on the auto-merge rules. We have also benefited a lot with enrichment. We have a source to get contact information like email IDs and phone numbers that are given priority. If they survive, we are able to make effective communication with our clients. Within a month of implementing the solution, we saw good achievements. We realized a lot of contacts that got deduplicated.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like the number of options that are presented with Informatica, fuzzy matching, and your screen."
"Informatica MDM has a defined data model we can customize with user and developer options."
"It has been leading the market with hierarchy management and all the different match concepts and algorithms. They're very robust."
"MDM is very stable - it can handle millions of hits daily and still run 24/7."
"I think the integration feature is probably one of the key features in Informatica MDM...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It gives you accountability to centralize your data and have it available to different applications."
"It is easy to create REST-based interfaces of the master data objects."
"Informatica MDM's most valuable feature is the interconnection between multiple Master Data domains."
"The matching feature of Reltio Cloud is highly effective compared to many other tools available. Additionally, it is almost ready to use out-of-the-box, reducing the implementation time."
"The survivorship feature is great because we can define it, prioritize the sources, and only allow those sources to survive when making the golden record."
"The most valuable feature is real-time synchronization. You can see the events as soon as they are posted within a couple of fraction seconds."
 

Cons

"I think everything related to the APIs and the manageability of the APIs in Informatica MDM are areas where improvements are required."
"Pre-sales technical support is much better than post-sales technical support."
"New machine learning could be added to Informatica MDM because the solution is outdated and is not moving with the current trends. The solution is good, but it definitely needs a lot of improvement and needs to speed up as per the market."
"I feel the out-of-the-box APIs or the API management could be improved slightly from their current state. It could be more user-friendly."
"Informatica MDM has a complex user interface, which could be improved."
"It could be a bit more intuitive, rather than technically complex."
"I think they should work really hard on UI."
"Data integration should be improved."
"Sometimes, the service goes down for maintenance or when we run a lot of jobs so things get pushed to the queue and results don't get delivered on time."
"Reltio Cloud could be improved in two specific areas. Firstly, the API capability needs to be enhanced, as when utilizing the REST API and posting a significant amount of data, there are multiple rejections from the MDM side. This can be due to the MDM server not responding or being unable to process the request. Therefore, I suggest that the API capacity should be increased to handle larger amounts of data. Additionally, I have noticed that the response time from the servers can take up to a minute or a few seconds, which can be improved for a faster response time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Informatica MDM is a costly solution because it comes as a bundle. They are also globally positioning themselves and are definitely working on very upgraded technologies. If someone wanted to do it on the cloud, they have a lot of flexibility because they upgrade themselves according to the current needs. It definitely comes with a lot of features and that's the reason why it's costly. The licensing cost should be approximately one million dollars. It's about four to five times that of other vendors."
"Informatica MDM's pricing is not cheap but comparable to other vendors."
"I rate the licensing cost of Informatica MDM a five out of ten."
"The solution is very expensive."
"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing nine and a half out of ten."
"I rate Informatica MDM's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price, and ten is high price."
