Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, SAP, Talend and others in Data Quality."The notable aspect lies in the workflow structure, where building the workflow aligns significantly with data governance."
"The ease of use of the user console is valuable."
"The drag-and-drop feature is incredibly flexible and straightforward."
"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 product’s important feature is data profiling and quality check."
"Informatica MDM's most valuable feature is the interconnection between multiple Master Data domains."
"The data quality component is very good."
"Informatica MDM has a defined data model we can customize with user and developer options."
"The tool manually checks on applying business rules and helps to implement them."
"The ability to clean out data and improve the data quality is the best feature."
"We can see all our information on a single screen."
"The most valuable features of Informatica MDM are the IDQ and RDM data management."
"The scalability of the solution is excellent."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to use JavaScript in formulas."
"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."
"Data movement is a pain."
"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."
"There is a notable challenge in having to provide detailed filters before the site recognizes the search criteria."
"It is complicated to fetch 20-25 reports when we profile the data."
"Pre-sales technical support is much better than post-sales technical support."
"The configurations could be better. It is a bit confusing because we must develop two tools when building a data model in Informatica MDM. Even though Informatica MDM is a single tool, we have our hub console plus the provisioning tool within that. Whatever data model we are building in the hub console, we have to develop it in the provisioning tool again. It is double the work to create a data model. We are also using external calls or the Java custom plans functions. This can be both positive and negative. Since MDM as a client does not support any complex validation, we have to depend on the external call or a Java call. Every time we deployed, the entire solution was impacted if something went wrong."
"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."
"The cost of Informatica MDM is expensive and has room for improvement."
"I feel the out-of-the-box APIs or the API management could be improved slightly from their current state. It could be more user-friendly."
"The product could be improved in the area of architecture and technology. All the parts are old."
"Informatica MDM has a complex user interface, which could be improved."
"Inserting the GenAI into the master data management will reduce the overall effort of operational activities."
"When we moved to the cloud, it was extremely complicated."
