Data management consolidation improves efficiency and user coordination
The licenses are too expensive compared to before, which is why customers are now preferring other data metadata management tools like OneTrust, Collibra, and Azure Purview. As a matter of POC, they are assessing whether their requirements can meet data governance initiatives. The need for skilled professionals is increasing, but cost remains a significant consideration for organizations when implementing CDGC. If a budget is allocated and they are satisfied with the Informatica CDGC license price, then it is a very good tool to implement. Regarding improvements, besides the price, the advanced clusters feature in CDGC needs attention. There are advanced scanners features present in both on-premise and cloud, but the setup isn't straightforward; there are lots of dependencies to consider. For instance, an SAP connector dealing with CDGC isn't simple. There are precautions and prerequisites that must be followed; otherwise, it won't work easily compared to the Oracle connector. Thus, resources need to be handled carefully with the advanced scanner configuration guide.

Offers solid data quality functions and continues to evolve with opportunities in AI integration
Precisely Trillium's best features include being a very comprehensive solution in terms of data quality. There are different types of data quality tools, and what Infogix had before being bought by Precisely focused more on reconciliation, whereas Precisely Trillium actually focused on correcting errors within the data set itself. This is a different perspective on data quality. Some of the functions and features that Infogix did in their data quality solution are different than the functions and features that Precisely Trillium did. The data profiling feature of Precisely Trillium helps improve data integrity for certain clients by emphasizing the principle of bad data in, bad data out. It's important to have a data quality tool to ensure that your data is good because any calculations and business decisions that are made on this data are only as good as the data itself. It's extremely important to have good quality data, and Precisely Trillium serves to ensure the data quality.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can scan anything."
"New tools are coming out that will enable you to achieve 90 percent of use cases with the out-of-the-box configuration, but I would like to keep Informatica tight here. Otherwise, you need a Java user edit course and other things to do multiple things that you cannot configure out of the box. They have to go through those use cases to do something if those can also be configured rather than coded."
"The features I find most valuable is the synchronization, verification, functionalities and all the data integration features."
"It has been leading the market with hierarchy management and all the different match concepts and algorithms, and they're very robust."
"The feature that allows me to search across the entire organizational database and then look through what objects are in which tables and which locations is quite handy."
"It provides all the typical MDM capabilities like deduplication and machine survivorship."
"With my firm, our use of Informatica Cloud is primarily to implement a set of financial integrations from various accounting systems into a Salesforce environment, and by leveraging Informatica Cloud Mapping Designer, we were able to create sets of reusable templates that were source agnostic, making supporting the integration for hundreds of customers feasible with just a small team of integration specialists."
"The solution's scalability is high."
"Precisely Trillium's best features include being a very comprehensive solution in terms of data quality."
 

Cons

"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."
"Asia pacific region address validation needs to be improved."
"The main issue preventing Brazilian companies from migrating to Informatica Cloud Data Integration from on-prem is the price."
"The vendor should have more training resources: online classes, free tutorial videos, etc."
"Needs to implement the new workflow with simple steps and a quick visualization with a 360 view of the data."
"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."
"In terms of what could be improved, they need to create a rules repository. Business rules for the attributes that you have, keeping them in that central repository, and governance of them is something which Axon is lacking a bit. The Informatica Data Quality tool actually caters to that, so that's probably why they have not built that up in the Axon, but it is definitely something that can be built in to this product, as well."
"A general improvement in icons and the virtual interface would be good."
"There's always room for improvement with Precisely Trillium. The hottest thing right now is AI, and leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance your data quality is always a plus."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Informatica MDM is a costly solution because it comes as a bundle. They are also globally positioning themselves and are definitely working on very upgraded technologies. If someone wanted to do it on the cloud, they have a lot of flexibility because they upgrade themselves according to the current needs. It definitely comes with a lot of features and that's the reason why it's costly. The licensing cost should be approximately one million dollars. It's about four to five times that of other vendors."
"Licensing is difficult to understand, but the team is always available to explain anything. They are very helpful."
"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."
"It's an expensive solution."
"The solution is very expensive."
"Pricing is determined by the number of licensed users as well as the number of Core CPUs."
"In terms of the licensing for Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, we had the option of paying based on the number of users and paying based on the volume of data, and we went with the data volume licensing option. Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services isn't as expensive as CIG. The pricing for it is okay, so I'm rating it a four out of five in terms of pricing. We did use the email verification and address validation services which weren't part of the contract, so we had to pay additional fees for those services."
"I rate the licensing cost of Informatica MDM a five out of ten."
