Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), MuleSoft, Matillion and others in Cloud Data Integration.
"The solution's initial setup is quite straightforward."
"The serverless capability and the packaging application of the solution are valuable."
"Their new licensing is very flexible. With Informatica Cloud, you have plenty of items under the same umbrella, such as services, offerings, data quality, and data masking. You have also got master data management and API management. What I really like about them is that you don't need to go to Informatica and say that you need a data integration module. You would say that you need iPaaS or Informatica Cloud. They'll then try to understand your needs and give you IPUs, which are the processing units. If I purchased a hundred IPUs from Informatica as a customer, I can use 70 IPUs for data integration. I would also need data quality, so I can use 10 IPUs for data quality. I can use the remaining 20 IPUs for API management. Down the line, if I see that my initial data integration needs for the development phase are met, then out of the 70 IPUs assigned for data integration, I can use 30 IPUs for data masking. I can shuffle these numbers in any way within the Informatica Cloud umbrella for the tenure for which I have subscribed to these IPUs. I can use all services the way I want. This flexibility is what I really love about Informatica. It also has got good connectors."
"The most valuable features of Informatica Cloud Data Integration for our clients are the AI capabilities within Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services."
"I like the fact that you can find almost any product connection that you need and the list is always expanding."
"The Mapping Designer allows for declarative ETL development (visual scripting) that leverages a wide array of different transformations."
"Data synchronization tasks."
"It has become an easy way to exchange information through any cloud application."
"The flexibility has been great overall."
"The most valuable features of the Mule Anypoint Platform are the Flex Gateway, API management, easy-to-use, and connectors. Additionally, they are coming out with improvements to the solution when required."
"The most valuable features for us are flexibility, all the features related to connectivity with multiple connectors to the business, and the flexibility of on-premises and cloud deployments."
"It is very easy to use for building connectors. It comes with a lot of connectors. For example, it has different adapters for NetSuite, which are very easy to use. It also has Salesforce connectors. The object store feature is also really easy to use. Mule Anypoint Platform is also good in terms of performance and how it is managed behind the scenes."
"It has improved our organization a lot because of the increase in productivity, and it has simplified the development of products. MuleSoft Anypoint Platform is a highly effective tool where you can build integrations so effectively. If you establish the integration platform, it increases productivity. It helps us to do effective re-authentication, and it speeds the integration."
"MuleSoft offers with the Anypoint Platform a unified platform for API management and an integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) as well as an on-premise Enterprise Service Bus pattern."
"The solution's deployment and proxy processes are very good."
"The API toolkit is the solution's most valuable aspect at this time, for our organization."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"This has significantly eased the process of migration from on-premise to cloud. Instead of configuring everything from the ground up, the Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service has made it seamless to build and render databases in cloud."
"GoldenGate can aggregate various data types from different sources."
"GoldenGate's best features are the desktop security features."
"Error reporting and debugging need improvement."
"Certain applications are not being synced with the ION."
"One area where Informatica Cloud Data Integration could improve is in providing more accelerators for certain functionalities."
"Its features for partitioning and optimization could be better."
"There is room for improvement at the highest level in terms of useability and connectors for various types of new applications. The row processing performance could be better because you experience some latency dealing with high volumes of data. Most organizations will be dealing with multiple cloud applications, so you could see performance issues moving from one system to another."
"I have received feedback from certain teams and there is a steep learning curve to use this solution."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration could improve the price by making it less expensive."
"There are a small number of UI bugs that occur on occasion."
"Better documentation, in particular with respect to the initial setup, would be helpful."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Pricing is one aspect of the solution that is troublesome. It's too expensive for smaller organizations."
"It would be better if we had a clearer view of the solution's future releases."
"It has different types of subscriptions. For platinum or lower subscriptions, there are not too many things that can be done. We don't see many features. They should release a basic version that has logging and monitoring features. These features should come with Mule Anypoint Platform for free instead of making customers pay separately for these features. Its dashboard can be improved to have a lot of charts so that it is easy to visualize information. The utilization part can be improved. The dashboard is good currently, but it can be better. Other solutions like Elastic have a good dashboard, and they allow you to administer the product from the UI. Currently, for RTF, there is a different dashboard or utility. It would be good to include the same utility in the cloud solution. It would be good if there is a centralized repository that includes the links to the information about various troubleshooting issues. The documentation is there currently, and it is good, but the troubleshooting information is too scattered. We have to go to different links to find troubleshooting information. This kind of centralized repository would be helpful for new customers who are implementing this solution. It will be helpful to see different kinds of issues that can occur."
"The solution's pricing model is very strange, and it will be really expensive if you use APIs a lot."
"The stability could be better."
"Mule Anypoint Platform could improve by having better integration with MDM. There are challenges when doing the interaction at this time."
"Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service lacks AI. If AI gets introduced in Oracle GoldenGate Cloud Service, it would be much easier to do analysis."
"Oracle is always adding new features. I can't think of anything that's urgent currently."
"The initial setup was a little complex, and we required support from Oracle to complete it."
"More technical documentation is needed, especially in terms of mapping and conversion of data, while integration would also be very helpful."
