John Posthuma - PeerSpot reviewer
Strong integration and synchronization capabilities with saving time
Boomi AtomSphere Master Data Hub is a real integration tool that offers powerful and helpful features. It has data synchronization capabilities, and I have noted that it provides a benefit for all my integration needs. Additionally, there are notable benefits in terms of time savings, money savings, and resource savings for me.

Modular structure and AI features stream new reporting processes
One of my clients has a requirement; they want to integrate metadata into the process, which means, for example, if I just want to implement a new field into my database, that field needs to be reflected throughout, let's say, 200 mappings. This highlights the need for a data-driven approach. My experience with technical support from Informatica is quite interesting; I would rate it as nine out of ten for Informatica PowerCenter kind of products or the Informatica integration products, because my team can do some hands-on using their free licenses or one-month kind of products. However, for products Master Data Management or related to MDM or Data Governance, there is no way by which we can directly practice, and my team struggles at that point.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use the administrator to create different interfaces. We developed APIs for specific applications like data validation between systems. We have our own product and base it on the Boomi interfaces that generate this type of data validation."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it seems to be more of a drag and drop interface."
"The most valuable features of Boomi AtomSphere Master Data Hub are the ability to do data integrations, APM Management, MDM, and data catalog."
"The most valuable feature is that it's very easy to develop the processes and we have been using it for a long time. At that time, no other tool was available, and it was the best product. When we first got it, I don't think it was a Dell product back then. We upgraded to the cloud last year. Today, it's still the best because it's very user-friendly, and the user interface is also very user-friendly. We can easily develop the processes quickly."
"Boomi AtomSphere Master Data Hub is a real integration tool that offers powerful and helpful features."
"The features for data quality, data cataloging, and UI are excellent."
"The metadata management of Informatica is great."
"The solution is straightforward."
"It is a highly scalable solution."
"The solution's technical support is pretty good, especially since the turnaround time is good."
"It's good for tool management, maintaining the golden record of customer status."
"The data mapping capability is a valuable feature."
"The scalability of the solution is excellent."
 

Cons

"Boomi AtomSphere Master Data Hub could improve by having a ChatGPT AI tool to solve problems and develop quicker."
"We have problems in some scenarios where there are messages in the queue and would require some support."
"The reporting needs to be improved to help get more KPIs in the longterm. Now, the system keeps only three months."
"There could be improvements in integrating more features with Microsoft Azure."
"The price could be better. It would also be better if they stopped changing the icons every six months. Whenever they change it, users have to adapt to them again."
"Interoperability is one area where EDC has room for improvement. It was challenging when the faculty took over the data world and had specific vendors they wanted to use, and some were not particularly open platforms."
"New machine learning could be added to Informatica MDM because the solution is outdated and is not moving with the current trends. The solution is good, but it definitely needs a lot of improvement and needs to speed up as per the market."
"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."
"Its pricing model can be improved. The response time from technical support can also be improved."
"I would also like to have profiling functionalities and quality transformations in the cloud."
"It would be helpful if there was a GenAI feature integrated into the system, especially regarding the data quality."
"For products Master Data Management or related to MDM or Data Governance, there is no way by which we can directly practice, and my team struggles at that point."
"I would like to see more API integration to have the capability to build a report using other third party reporting tools to streamline the operation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a monthly subscription, which is $550 per month."
"The price could be better. In the current market, it's expensive but worth it."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration is famously known for its high price. The vendor targets large enterprises, and not medium or small companies. These large companies, and organizations, handle large amounts of data. If you go into any large bank, such as American or Canadian banks, these banks use this solution because it is more reliable, secure, and has more functionality."
"Its pricing model can be improved."
"The solution is very expensive."
"It is cost effective and an easily accessible tool."
"You can purchase licenses for this solution at different intervals. For example, annually or every three years. They recently changed their terms for licensing and now it is more flexible."
"Informatica MDM's pricetag should come down. They have to cut some costs."
"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"The pricing is high compared to other tools on the market."
