Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, SAP, Talend and others in Data Quality."The product’s important feature is data profiling and quality check."
"The desktop version of the solution was particularly valuable to me, primarily for creating components. We opted for the data quality aspect to assess the quality of our data warehouse. The functionalities available allowed us to not only check data quality but also serve as an ETL tool. This versatility enabled data transformation and storage in various formats, including files on platforms like SharePoint or local online directories. The flexibility of the tool catered to the specific needs of those building components, contributing to our desired outcomes."
"The ease of use of the user console is valuable."
"The drag-and-drop feature is incredibly flexible and straightforward."
"The notable aspect lies in the workflow structure, where building the workflow aligns significantly with data governance."
"I like the number of options that are presented with Informatica, fuzzy matching, and your screen."
"Informatica MDM's most valuable feature is the interconnection between multiple Master Data domains."
"New tools are coming out that will enable you to achieve 90 percent of use cases with the out-of-the-box configuration, but I would like to keep Informatica tight here. Otherwise, you need a Java user edit course and other things to do multiple things that you cannot configure out of the box. They have to go through those use cases to do something if those can also be configured rather than coded."
"It gives you accountability to centralize your data and have it available to different applications."
"MDM doesn't require a separate IDQ."
"The ability to clean out data and improve the data quality is the best feature."
"Its data cleansing capabilities are very valuable. The match and merge and the audit trail functionalities are very good."
"The fuzzy matching capability is a great feature."
"The staging and hierarchical features are the most valuable."
"The most important features are the mastering of the data and the UI intuitiveness."
"A great product enrichment tool."
"I believe it would be beneficial if it could enhance its flexibility to connect with a wider range of downstream systems beyond just Excel and Postgres."
"It is complicated to fetch 20-25 reports when we profile the data."
"There is a notable challenge in having to provide detailed filters before the site recognizes the search criteria."
"Speaking specifically about the version we use, version 12.3, I'm unsure if this has been addressed in subsequent versions. One improvement I'd like to see pertains to the language used in certain components, especially in data quality checks. The language complexity posed a challenge for beginners. Although we had on-site assistance from Ataccama, making it manageable for us, some individuals found it difficult to comprehend, necessitating additional support. The provision of a comprehensive guide for on-premise installation can also be enhanced. The lack of detailed information on the solution's workings and the overwhelming nature of notifications, with extensive content, were areas of concern. Streamlining the notification content in newer versions would significantly expedite issue resolution."
"Data movement is a pain."
"Pre-sales technical support is much better than post-sales technical support."
"Informatica MDM has a complex user interface, which could be improved."
"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."
"Inserting the GenAI into the master data management will reduce the overall effort of operational activities."
"The advertising makes promises about data analytics that it does not keep."
"Informatica MDM can improve the data catalog and data marketplace."
"From multiple masters that are there in Informatica MDM, we can improve the financials."
"It could be a bit more intuitive, rather than technically complex."
"Its look and feel needs improvement. It has a lousy look and feel. Informatica PIM is designed specifically for the retail industry. They need to make sure that it is also applicable to all the other industries and verticals."
"Database access is highly restricted particularly if you're using the cloud version."
"They need more feature flexibility, as it is not fully developed."
