it_user187320 - PeerSpot reviewer
BI Developer at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Fast in taking unstructured data, processing it and spitting out all the different data types. The team moved to SSIS/SSRS, I suspect it didn’t fit in with the goal of creating a data warehouse.
The manual calculations and formulae. They were a bit complex. The formulae were a bit abstract. Not easy to understand. Not intuitive. I sat beside an SSIS guru and he took one look at them and said “Good luck Geoff”. I coded them all and after I left, I got a call from a techy there asking me what they were all about! He hadn’t a clue how to unravel them, even with documentation. Also, they managed to accidentally delete them all. No idea how they did that. After a few panic-filled phone calls, they dropped the whole thing. It was a mess there. Glad I left.

Data quality checks have reduced manual monitoring but still face cost and performance issues
Some of the best features Informatica Data Quality offers include AI automation using CLAIRE, which integrates AI with Informatica Data Quality, and its user-friendly drag-and-drop interface. All of this is simply usable to any person who has minimal knowledge of ETL. Rather than querying every table to check for any duplicate entries or null values, it is impossible to query for each site. Once we integrate it with Informatica Data Quality and use the drag-and-drop function to specify the conditions we need and connect to the databases, it directly checks if the values are within the threshold or if we can set conditions, such as not entering records with null values. It also features a match and merge condition, from which data profiling and data cleansing can be done.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Pandora provides a quick, efficient way to analyze, control and improve data using integrated technology."
"It has given us the ability to build information that wasn’t otherwise there, to build confidence in our applications, to troubleshoot data effectively and focus our efforts on genuine errors."
"X88 gave a quick view of the quality of the data and a rapid way to fix issues before exporting for use."
"It is excellent for data profiling."
"We were easily able to merge the two sets of data and find the inconsistencies between the two allowing us to complete this part of the project in speedy fashion."
"The customer service was very good."
"The product allowed us to complete the project on time and within budget and is continuing to be used on subsequent Data Migration/Integration projects."
"About Informatica Data Quality, I do not think that I have any questions because the product is very good."
"Since we integrated Informatica Data Quality in our project, the amount of human interaction has reduced, so the team has decreased, resulting in cost savings for our project and improved time by automating checks for missing or null values."
 

Cons

"The product appears to be horizontally scalable, but is not something I would use in a large scale automated architecture."
"It is way, way over-priced in my opinion."
"The free data profiler doesn't contain enough dashboards to give the user a better feel of the program."
"End to End connectivity could do with some improvement which I believe they are working on at this time."
"The online training is very useful but needs expanding and updating – it has loads of potential."
"The tool was very unstable and was constantly hogging the resources, even if was not operating at the moment."
"The scalability is not up to mark in my view because even a small increase in data, like the number of rows, can cause the server to crash, requiring a reboot."
