Marketing teams have made data-driven campaign decisions and grow real app user bases
For me, the best part is that it clearly shows which ads or channels are bringing your real users. It tells us from where we are actually getting a stable set of user bases so that marketing decisions for the future become easier. It provides a great user interface, making it easy for tracking and future marketing campaigns. The integration is quite smooth, and the documentation which Appsflyer provides, along with the support from its tech team is amazing in terms of getting started and integrating into our applications. Dashboards, segregations, and charts provided for analytics are top-notch and up to market standard, helping business users to analyze data and make future marketing decisions. It has significantly improved our revenue, helping us understand our real users to target our core audience better and expand our business.

Handles large data volumes effectively and offers competitive pricing
There is a lot of improvement required, as we still face some cache issues most of the time, which is a challenge that we expect to see resolved in the future. Additionally, there is some limitation when we are working with a tool, especially regarding In and Out parameters, and I feel that this aspect should be improved going ahead. We face issues with the API side, as Cloud Application Integration cannot handle large volumes; according to the API page, there is a limitation of 500 records or 500 MB. The AI integrated into the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services solution is called Application Integration, where we still face challenges when dealing with huge volumes, as previously explained.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Appsflyer has positively impacted our organization by improving the particular events' properties."
"Since implementing Appsflyer, we have seen a 30% increase in our total app installations and a similar percentage increase in our user base and revenue."
"Appsflyer has changed my organization positively as it marks the beginning of client engagement and the client engaging funnel."
"A specific positive outcome I've seen from using Appsflyer is getting insights into iOS with their single source of truth, which I use consistently for data analysis and getting a report that is agreeable between the client and me."
"From a programmatic perspective, Appsflyer is one of the more reliable platforms when it comes to cross-channel management."
"Appsflyer has impacted my organization quite positively, as we were also using Adjust, and I prefer Appsflyer."
"The most valuable features of Informatica MDM are the IDQ and RDM data management."
"The solution provides increased efficiency while still being user-friendly and easy to operate."
"I like that Informatica MDM has robust matching technology. Informatica MDM is also porting the external Java applications for validations. I can consider that a must-have. It is also exposed to Rest API calls, and we can engage in real-time integrations with any third-party systems."
"The most valuable features are data quality, data integrate transformations, match-merge, and a few MDM solutions we build into data quality transformation."
"There isn't any human touch involved. It's just an automated business process to build different applications and talking to various APIs using the client's ecosystems. We then build new functionalities out of it."
"Informatica Persistent Data Masking can mask production data for different users, ensuring that only authorized individuals can access sensitive information."
"Informatica MDM has helped our organization because we now work from a harmonized single record for customers and patients."
"The most valuable features of Informatica MDM are it is cloud-enabled and has all the elements that are supposed to have in terms of MDM as a solution. All the features that are there. It is very well-integrated with any of the SAP and non-SAP applications. It is quite user-friendly. The user experience that you receive in Informatica MDM is quite good."
 

Cons

"Many times we run into problems, and Appsflyer tech support is hard to reach."
"I would say sometimes the integration could be a bit tough, especially because I struggled when I was integrating Appsflyer into my Apple Search Ads and my iOS application."
"One improvement that Appsflyer can make is to find better ways to access aggregating raw data."
"I feel that a feature improvement would be beneficial. After performing all the user actions, we were supposed to wait a few minutes, maybe two or five, and then check Appsflyer to download it, as there is no UI or UX to display user journey actions and properties directly."
"Appsflyer can be improved with event de-duplication."
"We face issues with the API side, as Cloud Application Integration cannot handle large volumes; according to the API page, there is a limitation of 500 records or 500 MB."
"This is a costly solution. We have several customers who evaluate it but then look for other solutions because of the cost. At present, Informatica MDM comes as an on-premises or cloud-based solution. I would like to see them offer a SaaS-based MDM model. I think they are working on it."
"We'd like to see the microservices, which don't run yet because the solution is not yet fully cloud-based."
"There is room for improvement in the Data Marketplace aspect."
"Informatica Cloud Data Quality has significant room for improvement. It is not stable, and there are several issues, especially on the cloud side, unlike the on-premise version which was very stable."
"I used to use Informatica Cloud Data Quality more but recently we have been using another tool that we feel is better because it handles spatial data."
"Support response time could be better."
"Error analysis becomes difficult as finding the exact location of the error in the logs is challenging."
