We performed a comparison between Informatica Cloud Data Integration and SAP Replication Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Informatica is good for integrating data and cloud applications. We have connectors for integrating cloud applications like Salesforce. You can quickly integrate anything with an exposed API or a REST API. The industry is increasingly shifting to the cloud, so we need more products that can connect to cloud-based applications. The integration is seamless and works in real time. It's also secure because you don't need to expose databases or tables."
"It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"The solution has the best feature for parameterization."
"The mass ingestion functionality and the elasticity of the solution are great."
"Whether we need data cleansing or data mastering, we get it all in one platform."
"REST API: Excellent for scripting control and reporting mechanisms"
"The Mapping Configuration and PowerCenter wizards are valuable. We use them to run our business logic."
"The solution is straightforward."
"SAP is renovating different things. We are using external tools to connect as of now. It is going well, and now the new generation integration platforms are going to be pretty easy."
"We can customize any workflow and we also like the business domain modeling that can be done."
"It speeds up the performance in terms of how fast you are able to access the data, look at it, get it reported to you, and send it to somebody. It also reduces the amount of storage."
"SAP Replication Server is an application that I consider to be a robust system. It has proven to be highly reliable in my experience."
"The price modeling could be more flexible."
"I would like to see support for more data sources."
"The cloud version could be better in terms of pricing."
"Certain applications are not being synced with the ION."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration can improve by being more user-friendly. When you're working with the solution a lot of technical knowledge is required. It's not a solution that anyone can use properly, you need knowledge of what's happening at the back end, such as SQL. When you get stuck, you need to look into your logic. For other tools, such as Dell Boomi, anyone can use them."
"Certain shortcomings in the product's UI make it an area where improvements are required."
"I have received feedback from certain teams and there is a steep learning curve to use this solution."
"Cost-wise, it could be better."
"Improvement is a never ending story, and HANA is doing some improvements. We are able to adopt that, and we have to do it by integration with HANA. They are very major changes that we need to see."
"The private solution is expensive. If you're in a situation where you're paying IBM or AWS or somebody just to host you specifically, you're paying people to run it and you're taking care of all the upgrades."
"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing and faster support."
"I would like to see it become mobile-friendly."
