"The technical support is excellent."
"The most valuable feature is the new Data Lake feature, which provides the basic capabilities needed."
"We use Informatica PowerCenter to transfer the transitional database to and from the data warehouse. This is very efficient as it enables us to quickly find our data reports and the data, so we can build AI models."
"It provides everything I need. Nothing is missing. PowerCenter is a good tool for on-premise databases."
"The most valuable feature of Informatica PowerCenter is data transformation and user-friendliness."
"It's robust. It has the ability to handle massive amounts. After reporting has been developed, there is an ease of use or a user-friendly interface for a trained workforce."
"It plays a crucial role in facilitating decision-making for various organizational stakeholders."
"The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's most valuable feature is its visualization."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
"It's valuable feature is that it is user-friendly and doesn't require much time for understanding. The solution is stable. The initial setup was straightforward."
"The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code."
"A valuable feature is the speed of the solution."
"In the future, I would like to see Informatica PowerCenter integrate a more powerful dashboard."

"Integration with Artificial Intelligence would benefit this solution."
"The licensing is difficult."
"There can be scalability issues. Huge amounts of data ingestion will impact performance."
"It should be more cloud-centric than on-prem-centric."
"Informatica PowerCenter could improve the data threshold for large sets of data. Additionally, they should add real-time integration."
"One area of improvement is associated with more connectors needing to be added such as Microsoft OneDrive, Teradata and a few others. I think the list is limited to the top ones now."
"Its FAW feature has limitations in terms of usage."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information. Having easily understandable documents or guides for new users would be beneficial. AI integration would be an interesting feature to add in the next release."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"When you implement the product on a small scale, it doesn't generate any ROI."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
