Rav Bangalore - PeerSpot reviewer

Unifying separate data systems for AI enablement and ensuring data security
One challenge we face is the effort required in data preparation before using MDM capabilities. A feature to facilitate data preparedness, such as data cleansing and template suggestions to minimize effort by stakeholders, would be helpful. Enterprises today have scattered data, and unifying this data with ease would be beneficial.
Divya-Raj - PeerSpot reviewer
Sr. Consultant cum Assistant Manager & Offshore Lead at Deloitte
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

"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it seems to be more of a drag and drop interface."
"Boomi AtomSphere Master Data Hub is a real integration tool that offers powerful and helpful features."
"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 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 offers features like unified data models, data security, and compliance, and we have tested data models that enable us to train LLM models for specific use cases."
"I know that there are two good features, APN and ServiceNow but we haven't explored all of its features yet."
"The features that I have found most valuable are, first of all, that it comes as part of this whole bundle of Informatica tools. So if you've been implementing Informatica MDM across a business, you'd often find it comes with it. It's been thrown in as a sweetener. The adoption of it is often the challenge because as part of your MDM project, governance is seen as something beyond the MDM and is often restrictive. So this tool actually, for the first time, when you talk to data governance teams, gives a holistic view of what a data governance team can do with this tool."
"Data synchronization tasks."
"The most valuable feature is the rule specification."
"The product is stable."
"Server maintenance, server hosting, backup, restoration, and DB capabilities are not needed in the cloud."
"There are a couple of valuable features. One is that it is very quick on the profiling. So, you get a very fast snapshot of the type of data that you're looking at from the profiling perspective. It can highlight anomalies in the data."
"It is one of the best tools available for data integration."
 

Cons

"We have problems in some scenarios where there are messages in the queue and would require some support."
"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."
"There could be improvements in integrating more features with Microsoft Azure."
"Boomi AtomSphere Master Data Hub could improve by having a ChatGPT AI tool to solve problems and develop quicker."
"The reporting needs to be improved to help get more KPIs in the longterm. Now, the system keeps only three months."
"If given the opportunity, I would like to address these concerns, particularly with regard to enhancing the end-user experience."
"There's definitely room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness. One example is that you can't search for jobs directly by file name. You can only search by job name. So, if you want to find a job that works with a specific file, you have to go through each job individually to find the right one. So, I'd like to see a faster search, one where I can search directly by file name."
"Metadata querying is right now not there in Informatica Cloud Data Integration."
"Performance also needs to be significantly improved, especially when connecting to SFDC for read and write operations."
"Data integration should be improved."
"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."
"Informatica Data Quality has its data warehouse, primarily using Oracle and some SQL databases. You need a database to host the data."
"I think everything related to the APIs and the manageability of the APIs in Informatica MDM are areas where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price could be better. In the current market, it's expensive but worth it."
"We have a monthly subscription, which is $550 per month."
"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."
"it's expensive, but if you're looking for a stable solution, Informatica MDM is a good one to choose."
"The solution is very expensive."
"The price is high, but the competitors are even higher, like Collibra."
"Informatica Axon is a costly solution. I rate Informatica Axon a four out of ten for its pricing."
"The price is comparable."
"The product is not very pocket-friendly for small and medium-sized businesses, and it is understandable because of the kind of features the tool gives."
"You pay for this solution based on IPUs, Informatica Processing Units. This depends on how much data you process and how much memory you consume from the cloud provider, and you pay as you go."
