Replication monitor feature is helpful in that it allows a quick view of the status, errors, and results of the last replication
We appreciate the ease of use in this solution. It looks like File Explorer, where you set up your source and targets. Replications are created simply by using the replication wizard. It also has functionality for scheduling, verification, and alerts. The ability to write code for transformations is very useful. Once the replications are set up it is simple to maintain. The Replication monitor is helpful in that it allows a quick view of the status, errors, and results of the last replication. Replication logs and history files are very useful for determining problematic data issues. The transaction latency tool is also helpful for determining how many connections are required for larger files. The replication types that are available are: Refresh Only, Continuous, and Synchronization. We currently use Refresh Only (scheduled refreshes), and Continuous. The source and target table verification is very helpful for running checks. The Replication Monitor is also a great plus, which shows a quick view of the replication status.

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

"DBMoto was very simple to set up and move our tables to the Oracle DB."
"The most valuable features are that is easy to install and it is user-friendly."
"The advanced features like task flow and conditional integration are particularly useful."
"The match and merge functionality is invaluable for discovering golden master data records."
"The Provisioning tool is something that is really handy for everyone. It is my pick as the best feature."
"The solution's scalability is high."
"The solution is stable."
"It's got a reputation in the industry as one of the best solutions for master data management. So, it's what we see in the Gartner top right quadrant as the best product in that space."
"The product is scalable and excellent for enterprise-level organizations."
"The tool's most valuable feature is bulk upload. We upload files in CSV or Excel format."
 

Cons

"Pricing is an area that needs improvement."
"This product would be improved with additional built-in functions for simpler date conversion, as well as for data type transformations."
"The cloud version of the Informatica, it's a very substandard product. They might say it's enterprise-ready but it's not at all ready. They need to add more features, such as improved data replication features. If you look at other tools, such as Matillion they are now cloud-native and flexible. Additionally, Informatica Cloud Data Integration should have a good migration strategy from Informatica PowerCenter to Informatica Cloud Data Integration."
"Informatica's support understands the solution, but they lack the experience we need for our use case. That was one thing that we prioritized when we started searching for this kind of solution."
"Its features for partitioning and optimization could be better."
"They need more feature flexibility, as it is not fully developed."
"The cost of Informatica MDM is expensive and has room for improvement."
"The UI is extremely complex"
"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."
"Informatica Data Quality has its data warehouse, primarily using Oracle and some SQL databases. You need a database to host the data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers pay a license fee yearly."
"I found the price to be quite reasonable."
"Licensing is difficult to understand, but the team is always available to explain anything. They are very helpful."
"It's pretty high for us. It's more on the higher side, like low to middle high."
"We got a 50% discount."
"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."
"It's a very expensive solution"
"The price is high, but the competitors are even higher, like Collibra."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The product has a high price point."
