A cloud solution to reflect market data using Shell companies data
We have some shell companies that send data from one organization to another. This data type will be coming to a Master Data Hub, where completed training partners will be combined with other data, such as annual DeFi statistics, to reflect market data We don't have any other options other than…

Offers profiling and address standardization but can be complicated
Informatica Data Quality has its data warehouse, primarily using Oracle and some SQL databases. You need a database to host the data. The cleansed version of the data is stored in the data warehouse. It integrates with PowerCenter and other Informatica tools. The integration details can be complex, but a regional setup is involved in this process. Profiling smaller datasets, such as 10,000-50,000 records, worked fine. However, unexpected issues could arise with larger datasets, such as thousands of records or more, especially with tables containing many columns. Handling tables with fifty or more columns can be challenging, even in Excel. A mismatch in data types could cause the entire system to crash. Continual enhancements are being made to address these issues, which can be unique to specific industries like finance and healthcare.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use the administrator to create different interfaces. We developed APIs for specific applications like data validation between systems. We have our own product and base it on the Boomi interfaces that generate this type of data validation."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it seems to be more of a drag and drop interface."
"The most valuable features of Boomi AtomSphere Master Data Hub are the ability to do data integrations, APM Management, MDM, and data catalog."
"The most valuable feature is that it's very easy to develop the processes and we have been using it for a long time. At that time, no other tool was available, and it was the best product. When we first got it, I don't think it was a Dell product back then. We upgraded to the cloud last year. Today, it's still the best because it's very user-friendly, and the user interface is also very user-friendly. We can easily develop the processes quickly."
"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."
"Offers data lineage feature"
"The user interface which is very easy to use if we have any problems to solve."
"Address Doctor gives an accurate combination of information provided with a level of returned threshold value."
"The governance process was fully manual before, but Axon helped us configure those processes, giving us more visibility, transparency, and control over the data."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to extract metadata from various sources- be it an old SaaS application or the latest cloud application."
"The most valuable feature of Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog is it provides clients with a full view of the enterprise data assets. For example, how many data assets they have and who owns them."
"One of the most valuable features is that I don't need to buy a subscription for any functionality. With Informatica Cloud Data Management, I have all the functionality and features available. If I need to make an integration, I can go to that integration service. If I need to mask, provide, or clean some information, I can easily just pick up that feature and use it. It's very simple, and I have all the functions and capabilities I need to work with data."
 

Cons

"The price could be better. It would also be better if they stopped changing the icons every six months. Whenever they change it, users have to adapt to them again."
"Boomi AtomSphere Master Data Hub could improve by having a ChatGPT AI tool to solve problems and develop quicker."
"We have problems in some scenarios where there are messages in the queue and would require some support."
"The reporting needs to be improved to help get more KPIs in the longterm. Now, the system keeps only three months."
"Once the data is masked, we won't be able to reverse it back to its original value."
"It needs to be a little more intuitive but it’s really not bad."
"They have too many diversified products. If you don't know Informatica, it's very confusing and feels very idiotic."
"I have encountered some issues using the substitution, which is one of the techniques of data masking."
"Informatica Axon's response times and certain aspects of the admin panel could be enhanced for better usability."
"The biggest challenge I see is the IDE's for the cloud and automization are different."
"Some functionalities can be a challenge in the cloud."
"Inserting the GenAI into the master data management will reduce the overall effort of operational activities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a monthly subscription, which is $550 per month."
"The price could be better. In the current market, it's expensive but worth it."
"The product is highly-priced."
"Our customers sometimes are able to negotiate a much better price for Informatica Cloud Data Integration based on their relationship with the vendor."
"The platform has a premium cost. I rate the pricing as seven out of ten."
"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 have no idea what the price actually is. It is probably not going to be the cheapest, but it is a pretty stable and robust platform from the backend standpoint."
"It is an expensive solution. I would say it is the most expensive solution in the market."
"We saw an ROI. We have been able to get data from various sources and consolidate it into a data lake, which is helping us in data analytics."
