Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."When you open a raw Excel file, it can be hard to look at everything in detail. Alteryx makes it much easier to go through the data, summarize it, and use different tools for analysis."
"It has great UI."
"I believe in the ability to connect to multiple data sources, as well as the ease of use to transform data and output data in a variety of formats."
"Workflow automation, in general, is valuable."
"I have been using Alteryx Designer only for data modeling and data structuring."
"The product is intuitive and easy to use."
"The functionality of drag and drop is the most valuable. It is a very user-friendly tool that can be understood easily. My teams also work with other solutions, such as Integration Services, and these solutions are very difficult for people who don't have technical knowledge."
"I like Alteryx Designer's drag-and-drop feature, where you drag a component, configure it and quickly run it."
"I like the fact that you can find almost any product connection that you need and the list is always expanding."
"The program is stable and scalable."
"The most valuable features of Informatica Cloud Data Integration for our clients are the AI capabilities within Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services."
"Whether we need data cleansing or data mastering, we get it all in one platform."
"The solution is straightforward."
"The Mapping Designer allows for declarative ETL development (visual scripting) that leverages a wide array of different transformations."
"Informatica is good for integrating data and cloud applications. We have connectors for integrating cloud applications like Salesforce. You can quickly integrate anything with an exposed API or a REST API. The industry is increasingly shifting to the cloud, so we need more products that can connect to cloud-based applications. The integration is seamless and works in real time. It's also secure because you don't need to expose databases or tables."
"The solution provides increased efficiency while still being user-friendly and easy to operate."
"Its price can be improved. It is too expensive for our country. Because of its high price, we can't sell Alteryx Designer in this region. We used to be their reseller partner. There is also an additional cost for automating the data and running the flows, which makes it even more expensive. It will be very good if they can let users automate the data for free. Other solutions like Tableau provide this feature for free."
"If the price were reduced then it would be more competitive."
"The actual usage part of it needs to be explained more. It's too vague right now."
"Alteryx's data science and machine learning capabilities are where it loses out to DataIQ."
"The only thing is sometimes it can be a bit slow."
"Alteryx Designer's pricing and support could be improved."
"Based on my experience, the tool could be improved by providing sample reports or pre-configured workflows tailored to specific industries, like finance. It needs to integrate an AI chatbot as well."
"Its cost can sometimes be a drawback."
"It needs to be a little more intuitive but it’s really not bad."
"Its pricing model can be improved. The response time from technical support can also be improved."
"It would be helpful if there was a GenAI feature integrated into the system, especially regarding the data quality."
"The main issue preventing Brazilian companies from migrating to Informatica Cloud Data Integration from on-prem is the price."
"The cloud version could be better in terms of pricing."
"I would like to see support for more data sources."
"There is room for improvement at the highest level in terms of useability and connectors for various types of new applications. The row processing performance could be better because you experience some latency dealing with high volumes of data. Most organizations will be dealing with multiple cloud applications, so you could see performance issues moving from one system to another."
"Cost-wise, it could be better."
