Handles large data volumes effectively and offers competitive pricing
There is a lot of improvement required, as we still face some cache issues most of the time, which is a challenge that we expect to see resolved in the future. Additionally, there is some limitation when we are working with a tool, especially regarding In and Out parameters, and I feel that this aspect should be improved going ahead. We face issues with the API side, as Cloud Application Integration cannot handle large volumes; according to the API page, there is a limitation of 500 records or 500 MB. The AI integrated into the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services solution is called Application Integration, where we still face challenges when dealing with huge volumes, as previously explained.

A seamless all-in-one solution
This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything. With other solutions, you'll need a separate platform for data ingestion, manipulation, etc. Then you'll need another tool for reporting. Palantir Gotham literally does it all. It generates a report regardless of the format. It can seamlessly generate it after the data has been collected.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"An advantage is its seamless integration with other Informatica capabilities, making data quality a deeply embedded part of the solution."
"The most beneficial feature of Informatica Cloud Data Quality is it's cloud-based."
"The solution is applicable for both technical and business users."
"The feature I found most valuable in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services is the mapping; you just drag and it maps the data, so mapping is very easy and it's no code."
"The product is stable."
"This solution is seamless; from one platform, we can do just about anything."
"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
 

Cons

"Informatica Cloud Data Quality could improve by adding more algorithms for matching and mastering. We currently only have five or six. Additionally, the parallelism in data is better in other solutions, such as IBM."
"The configuration process is pretty lengthy and challenging and could be made easier to understand."
"They could provide more robust performance for data integration processes. It would help in improving the data quality more efficiently."
"The on-prem solution is harder to learn than the cloud-based versions."
"In terms of what could be improved, they need to create a rules repository."
"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."
"This service could be more cost-effective."
"The initial setup is complex. It isn't easy because it needs a separate server of its own."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My understanding is that Informatica is quite expensive compare to other tools that are available in the market."
"The solution's pricing model is easy, but it is very expensive."
"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."
"The solution is expensive."
"The product has a high price point."
"Informatica MDM is very expensive. Apart from licensing fees, they have broken down their products into multiple products, and they charge for each and every product. If the data is huge, they charge for the data. At times, we have to use third party services for data cleaning, and they charge for that as well."
"The pricing is quite flexible."
"I have no idea what the price actually is. It is probably not going to be the cheapest, but it is a pretty stable and robust platform from the backend standpoint."
