"Performance and flexibility-wise, they're very user-friendly."
"The MDM solution is capable of integrating multiple systems, so it helped us to solve the purpose of centralizing the depository as well as the standardization of mass data. It takes away all the ambiguity around data integrity issues or all the process challenges which happen when every stage of a process uses a different source as master data."
"The technical support services are good."
"The product's initial setup phase was not complex. The tool is easy to install onto any of the servers, and you can integrate it."
"The product’s flexibility is valuable."
"The agentless RCDC enablement through PowerExchange is a great idea and has worked very well so far."
"From the product feature or product capability perspective, the aspects around integration, transformation, and standardization are valuable. It's fairly easy to use. It has a GUI-based interface."
"The main benefit of PowerExchange is its native real-time capabilities. Competing tools are counting on third-party packages or Oracle to offer real-time capabilities. However, Informatica has a native ability to scan the data on the file system level and capture the changes almost instantly when I push it to the consumers. The solution has a powerful built-in replication engine."
"The user interface and user experience are perfectly all right."
"The solution can connect to different systems i.e. mainframe, IMS or AS/400 Legacy Systems."
"It is easy to integrate the solution with other tools."
"They could provide more robust performance for data integration processes. It would help in improving the data quality more efficiently."
"When it comes to UI look and feel and user experience, Informatica is not as good as other solutions."
"The initial setup was not very straightforward. Not complex, but not very simple either."
"The one place where it could be improved is definitely pricing. That's a very big problem. It depends product to product, but pricing is an issue."
"Integration with the largest number of databases and other systems would be important."
"Pushdown optimization could be improved."
"V10.2 is very stable, but we are still struggling to make V10.5 stable. We found services that were down, and PowerExchange stopped working."
"The major shortcoming of PowerExchange is high availability and failover. None of the versions we've used to date have had the out-of-the-box ability to enable failover and high-availability requirements. This is a significant challenge and risk."
"I would like the stability to improve."
"Real-time has not been enhanced that much over the past few years. There has not been as many features added like they did before."
"The product is not suitable for application integration."
