Jitterbit Harmony improves data integration efficiency, reduces costs, automates tasks, requires less training, and enhances performance, providing high ROI.

Customer Service

Sentiment score

Informatica's customer service is praised for quick, knowledgeable support, though response times can vary with customization and membership levels.
Sentiment score
8.8
Customers commend Jitterbit Harmony support for its responsive, efficient service, detailed guidance, knowledgeable staff, and extensive resources.
Due to the tool's maturity limitations, solutions are not always simple and often require workarounds.
The response time is pretty good because we have someone in-house, who is an expert from Informatica, in our team who can help us with any sort of queries usually.
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.

Informatica Cloud is highly rated for stability, despite occasional issues; support effectively resolves any reported bugs.
Sentiment score
6.3
Users praise Jitterbit Harmony for its stability, reliability, ability to handle large data, and strong support, boosting user confidence.
Stability is crucial because IDMC holds business-critical data, and it needs to be available all the time for business users.
 

Room For Improvement

Informatica IDMC requires improvements in integration, user interface, performance, support consistency, connectivity, automation, data tagging, and pricing.
Users find Jitterbit Harmony needing faster processing, improved support, better integration, stability, clearer documentation, competitive pricing, simpler setup, and regular updates.
The tool needs to mature in terms of category-specific attributes or dynamic attributes.
The observability concept in Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) needs improvement as the capabilities are not up to the mark compared to the industry.
The licenses are too expensive compared to before, which is why customers are now preferring other data metadata management tools like OneTrust, Collibra, and Azure Purview.
 

Setup Cost

Informatica IDMC, a costly solution for large enterprises, offers extensive features and flexibility, justifying its premium pricing.
Jitterbit Harmony provides flexible and cost-effective pricing for different integration needs, requiring direct consultation for customized quotes.
IDMC is often described as the 'Ferrari of Master Data Solutions,' implying that while expensive, it is business-critical and, therefore, justified.
The licenses are too expensive compared to before, which is why customers are now preferring other data metadata management tools like OneTrust, Collibra, and Azure Purview.
I think the costs are reasonable for the kinds of features that Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) has.
 

Valuable Features

Informatica IDMC excels in data management with strong integration, AI-driven analytics, and a flexible user interface.
Users praise Jitterbit Harmony's intuitive interface, powerful integration, seamless connectivity, drag-and-drop function, real-time sync, and pre-built connectors.
In on-premise, we call it EDC for metadata management, while in cloud-based technologies, it is known as the Metadata Command Center, which serves the same purpose as EDC concerning CDGC.
The platform's ability to pull in data from other platforms without the need for an additional integration tool enhances its appeal.
Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) can connect to pretty much any application, including Oracle Analytics and Power BI, and it works quite seamlessly.

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.
