Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, Alation, SAP and others in Metadata Management."The data catalog feature is pretty good."
"When you combine it with data lineage, every time you need to make a change, it allows you to do impact analysis on any changes and then connect to the end-users or data stewards so that they can be aware that a change is coming. That's one of the main benefits we use it for."
"It has the ability to easily load slowly changing dimensions."
"It allows us to use many languages to develop and to integrate practically all the technologies of the Oracle suite as well as those from non-Oracle vendors."
"ODI is a very accessible tool, especially since the mapping functionality has been added."
"The most valuable feature that we use is the Knowledge Modules."
"It's scalable."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) is that it integrates well with almost all technologies currently being used in my company."
"It can integrate with more recent databases like Cassandra, Hadoop, and other more recent Big Data databases."
"The CAEM is very useful in its modularity and portability."
"There is room for improvement with respect to the connector and how to connect to the structured and unstructured database."
"There are always ways to improve things. For example, we can use AI to be able to find out something. When we are typing something, if we don't know the exact term, Artificial Intelligence would be useful to find terms that are phonetically or syntactically similar. Instead of having to type in the exact name, they can provide those in the list. So, they can provide AI support for the search because when you have thousands and thousands of terms, it is hard to remember all the names."
"I rate it a seven out of 10 because there is room for growth because ODI is still new, in comparison to Informatica, which is a mature product."
"ODI could improve the ease of use. There is a steep learning curve to use the solution."
"The solution lacks some functions and features."
"The price needs to be lowered. It's too expensive."
"If there was an add-on tool to hide the performance issues and solve them for me, then I might be interested in that as it would provide me value."
"Overall the product is fine, but sometimes its reports unknown errors while we compile ETL scripts."
"Technical Support could be better."
"It lacks a suite of tools suitable for fully processing data and moving it into decision support warehouses."
