Argha Das - PeerSpot reviewer
Good tool, especially if you're using cloud services and an S3 bucket
There's definitely room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness. One example is that you can't search for jobs directly by file name. You can only search by job name. So, if you want to find a job that works with a specific file, you have to go through each job individually to find the right one. So, I'd like to see a faster search, one where I can search directly by file name. Moreover, the support team could improve by adding things like file transfer status updates. Also, if someone modifies a job and then leaves the company, that shouldn't disrupt the job for active users. It would be better if the job continued to run smoothly regardless of who modified it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Customer service and technical support are excellent."
"The feature I found most valuable in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services is the mapping. You just drag, and it maps the data. Mapping is very easy, and it's no code. When you migrate data or when the data interaction happens at the source and destination, the challenge is that you'll get different formats. The validation has to be done in the middleware, and the transformation should happen. In Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, it's very easy to do data validation and transformation compared to any other tool."
"Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services offers a wide variety of services, including Cloud Data Integration, which is akin to a replica of PowerCenter on the cloud. I particularly like the mass ingestion service."
"This solution allows you to easily access and make use of information that you have in your on-premises environment."
"The most valuable feature of Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services for me is the availability of connectors."
"I rate the solution's scalability a ten out of ten."
"The data integration and synchronization features in IICS improve the data handling processes."
"The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors)."
"It runs like an appliance and has tremendous throughput."
"Easy integration with Salesforce"
"The Cloud Console for monitoring and troubleshooting data operations."
"Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features."
"It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data."
"Jitterbit provides the ability to quickly map data between files and databases."
"We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate."
 

Cons

"The tool is quite good overall, but sometimes the number of modules can be overwhelming. If the development interface could be optimized to have fewer modules, it would be greatly beneficial."
"There's definitely room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness. One example is that you can't search for jobs directly by file name. You can only search by job name. So, if you want to find a job that works with a specific file, you have to go through each job individually to find the right one. So, I'd like to see a faster search, one where I can search directly by file name."
"Synchronicity is an area for improvement in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services. For example, when you want real-time or immediate response from the solution when multiple technologies are involved, the integration with Informatica Intelligent Cloud isn't seamless, whether it's the MQ, JMS, or BES service, so the connectivity should be improved a bit. The data governance is good, but what's lacking is a demo. For example, if there's a new feature in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, the documentation for that new feature is limited, so if Informatica could give a more complete documentation and more demos, that would be better for the users. Right now, there isn't any issue with any of the features of the solution. It's the new feature awareness or user training, and improved connectivity that I'd like to see in the next version of Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services."
"The cloud version of Informatica, although easier and more advanced than PowerCenter, still requires a deep dive to fix bugs."
"This service could be more cost-effective."
"The product's pricing is definitely an area where a bit of improvement is needed."
"In terms of data volume processing, Intelligent Cloud Services does not match the efficiency of Power Center."
"In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations."
"There were some bugs in the product. For example if you run a delete query and test, it deletes the actual data."
"I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security."
"Sometimes additional connectors are needed."
"You need to have some development skills or hire a Jitterbit engineer to make changes."
"Looping through complex data structures can be difficult."
"Its API management capabilities need improvement."
"Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing model is something that can be improved."
"The solution is expensive."
"In terms of the licensing for Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, we had the option of paying based on the number of users and paying based on the volume of data, and we went with the data volume licensing option. Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services isn't as expensive as CIG. The pricing for it is okay, so I'm rating it a four out of five in terms of pricing. We did use the email verification and address validation services which weren't part of the contract, so we had to pay additional fees for those services."
"Jitterbit was extremely cost effective for us compared to other options."
"The solution's cost is mid-ranged compared to other vendors."
"Each business needs to determine if it is a mission critical aspect."
"The Jitterbit price is based upon endpoints. They also offer ERP connectors with their Enterprise edition"
"I do believe Jitterbit has one of the better pricing and licensing options out there compared to its competitors."
"The added bonus is that Jitterbit doesn't charge for any data volume/traffic."
