Featured Reviews

Júlio César Gomes Fonseca - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable solution that helps develop quality modules but needs to improve its programming language
The initial setup was not so difficult. The deployment took so long, at least one or two years, because the team has a project that aims to be exceptional in the future. It's good to say because the company is very good. It's a self-confirmation technical integration company. We have numerous reasons why reducing staff workload is beneficial. However, it is important to note that this does not directly apply to the application used. They will only do the service.

Helps with real-time data processing and improves decision-making overall
It improves decision-making overall for the company. Informatica is usually the tool for setting up the data, streaming the data into your data warehouse from your source, transforming the data, and preparing and modeling it into some desired format. It improves the performance. You need to know how to use it and how to implement it, but it improves performance.
