Stable platform with valuable case management capabilities

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

"The biggest benefit of using the product is identifying the issues, enabling a more flexible working method."
"The solution provides increased efficiency while still being user-friendly and easy to operate."
"I give the stability a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of Informatica Axon has been the data marketplace."
"Its data cleansing capabilities are very valuable. The match and merge and the audit trail functionalities are very good."
"Multifeatured and easily scalable data catalog, with good data domain discovery and data profiling features."
"Informatica Data Quality is a product that is worth the money."
"It has flexibility in extending the data model."
"Informatica MDM has a defined data model we can customize with user and developer options."
 

Cons

"The platform's initial setup process could be better."
"It would be great if the cloud version could match the full range of capabilities available on-premise."
"The model is somewhat flexible. There are certain aspects of the model that are not as flexible as we would like. It doesn't do certain things to a great level of depth. So, in situations where we want to drill in to do something specific, we have to essentially copy that data into our own structures in order to add that additional layer of flexibility."
"We promote our code changes from a lower to a higher environment, which is highly complex when working with a multi-domain MDM like Informatica. This is the biggest obstacle for Informatica MDM, and I think they should change it because that's very time consuming."
"The vendor should have more training resources: online classes, free tutorial videos, etc."
"Its features for partitioning and optimization could be better."
"Though EDC has maximum coverage, a few things were not available to scan, but I think EDC is evolving to address this issue."
"There is room for improvement in the Data Marketplace aspect."
"It is more complicated to extract data using the product compared to Visio. The system could display the details on the screen."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"The pricing structure is good, but having to pay for extra drivers to be used in an ICS environment makes me a little nervous."
"I rate the licensing cost of Informatica MDM a five out of ten."
"Informatica MDM is very expensive. Apart from licensing fees, they have broken down their products into multiple products, and they charge for each and every product. If the data is huge, they charge for the data. At times, we have to use third party services for data cleaning, and they charge for that as well."
"It is expensive. That's probably the biggest drawback. The business has heartache paying the license, but that's mainly because they don't realize what value it brings. The key thing about the MDM solution is that it is in the backend, and no one sees what it is actually doing. You don't know it is a problem until it is not there."
"A yearly subscription is paid based on the number of people using the solution. Price-wise, it falls under the medium range since it is neither very costly nor too cheap."
"The platform has a premium cost. I rate the pricing as seven out of ten."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration is famously known for its high price. The vendor targets large enterprises, and not medium or small companies. These large companies, and organizations, handle large amounts of data. If you go into any large bank, such as American or Canadian banks, these banks use this solution because it is more reliable, secure, and has more functionality."
