Modular structure and AI features stream new reporting processes
One of my clients has a requirement; they want to integrate metadata into the process, which means, for example, if I just want to implement a new field into my database, that field needs to be reflected throughout, let's say, 200 mappings. This highlights the need for a data-driven approach. My experience with technical support from Informatica is quite interesting; I would rate it as nine out of ten for Informatica PowerCenter kind of products or the Informatica integration products, because my team can do some hands-on using their free licenses or one-month kind of products. However, for products Master Data Management or related to MDM or Data Governance, there is no way by which we can directly practice, and my team struggles at that point.

Provides users with an initial setup phase, which is fairly simple to manage
I don't know what could be improved in terms of what my company was used to previously or after moving over to Rivery. I have not had much experience with platforms other than Rivery. For me, Rivalry was a way to step up from what we used. To be honest, I am not really sure what improvements could be made in Rivery. Pricing is a little steep for smaller organizations, I would say. The product's pricing model could be a little bit better. I am not aware if there are additional packages for smaller organizations, but if there are no packages available, then maybe that would be a good way to introduce something new in the tool.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Axon has something called Overlay, which can be used to extend the technical lineage."
"The best thing about Informatica Axon is that it integrates with the Electronic Data Capture and the Axon system."
"It's helpful in integration, and it can be moved around in SharePoint. So, from the SharePoint View, data integration and reporting, it help a lot in that way."
"I do a quite a lot of data transformations, and the fact that I can do them without changing any of my SQL queries from the code, using the inbuilt tools, is very helpful."
"Some of Axon's valuable features include creating your business glossaries, importing DQ rules, and creating change management."
"The metadata management of Informatica is great."
"We can scan anything."
"MDM is very stable - it can handle millions of hits daily and still run 24/7."
"The solution's most valuable features are that it is quick to connect and simple to use."
"Connects to many APIs in the market and new ones are being added all the time."
 

Cons

"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."
"Informatica Axon's response times and certain aspects of the admin panel could be enhanced for better usability."
"Permissions, scalability, and connection with other informatic tools are the main areas that need development. Integration with other tools, such as IDQ, is challenging. The management of data discovery is highly challenging because many data points have identical definitions."
"The price modeling could be more flexible."
"The biggest pain point for us is the documentation. Typically, you have to go through knowledge forums and knowledge groups to find out about the syntax issues for interfacing with new products. Typically, you've got to deal with someone who has been through the pain before. Their documents are not really up to date with current innovations happening in the industry. As big as they are, you can't really expect it, but that's our pain point."
"I would like to have the solution in one product and technical support needs to be better."
"New machine learning could be added to Informatica MDM because the solution is outdated and is not moving with the current trends. The solution is good, but it definitely needs a lot of improvement and needs to speed up as per the market."
"The integration with other data management tools can be enhanced. For instance, there is no integration with tools like Collibra or Hubview."
"Pricing is a little steep for smaller organizations, I would say. The product's pricing model could be a little bit better."
"Lineage and an impact analysis or logic dependency are lacking."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Informatica Cloud Data Integration could be reduced."
"The price is neither too high nor too low."
"It's offers value for money. They're more competitive with respect to pricing and offerings."
"It is cost effective and an easily accessible tool."
"Cost-wise, I think it is on the higher side, and that is why we are looking for some better options. Licensing costs are huge compared to other players in the market and for my company."
"Informatica MDM's pricetag should come down. They have to cut some costs."
"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"We have licenses, and we are provided with certain particular services in the solution."
"I rate the tool's price as six out of ten if I consider the lowest price to be one and the highest price to be ten."
