Cons
"One thing Informatica could improve is the way IPUs are used. Each customer purchases a certain amount of IPUs per month, but you can use more or less than that defined quantity. The only problem is if you don't use the all your IPUs, they don't carry over into the next month. I think customers should have the ability to transfer unused IPUs into the next month or year. This improvement could help give customers more flexibility, especially since cloud solutions need flexibility in how we use and pay for them.""Its cloud-based version has a few limitations compared to the on-premise version."

"The data discovery isn't that good yet for Salesforce. We have another tool that we use for this. It may be a problem because Salesforce on the cloud.""Once the data is masked, we won't be able to reverse it back to its original value.""I have encountered some issues using the substitution, which is one of the techniques of data masking.""Informatica's support understands the solution, but they lack the experience we need for our use case. That was one thing that we prioritized when we started searching for this kind of solution.""Informatica should simplify the rules for setting classifications and user access management permissions. It's too complex to define, configure, and make work."
