Cloud data catalog has streamlined lineage and quality while leaving more automation to improve
I have not explored IDMC's automation capabilities driven by AI and metadata too much at the moment, but it is on the cards. We are basically creating the foundation, as the whole migration has taken place recently and it is still early days. I think Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) is evolving, and as the vendors move forward, they pick up new concepts from each other. I have seen that products leapfrog each other, and from my experience over the years, the big players tend to copy features or add enhancements based on industry trends. I feel whatever the tool does not have now, there is a feedback loop allowing us to request new features, and we continually ask for different ways to do things as we have a pipeline into the product management team. It is difficult to say what additional features I would prefer to see in the next release of IDMC. I would appreciate more automation on the lineage front, with more AI to seamlessly join independent sources and create seamless lineage between different technologies, such as from file into database A into a different database and landing up in a reporting system such as Cognos, Qlik, Qlik Sense, QlikView, or Power BI.

Different types of products can have different attributes in the master product record, but there seem to be deployment issues that require a reliable SI.
The powerful attribution management capability, which allows different types of products to have different attributes in the master product record We implement it for other customers, but don't run it ourselves. It has essentially been "frozen" by Oracle - they don't seem to be updating it any…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has been leading the market with hierarchy management and all the different match concepts and algorithms, and they're very robust."
"I find this solution to be the most efficient, immersive, and robust."
"The staging and hierarchical features are the most valuable."
"The OAuth feature is the most valuable feature for authentication."
"The valuable feature is metadata management. If you want to trace sensitive data, you can auto-classify them. You can search for sensitive information through EDC. Using Discovery, you can identify if there is any type of data set."
"The features for data quality, data cataloging, and UI are excellent."
"Address Doctor gives an accurate combination of information provided with a level of returned threshold value."
"The feature I found most valuable in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services is the mapping. You just drag, and it maps the data. Mapping is very easy, and it's no code. When you migrate data or when the data interaction happens at the source and destination, the challenge is that you'll get different formats. The validation has to be done in the middleware, and the transformation should happen. In Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services, it's very easy to do data validation and transformation compared to any other tool."
"We found, most valuable, the ability to view all the information about all of our Items (previously in 8 different systems) in one screen."
"It is a solid, reliable product with a robust development history and good support behind them."
 

Cons

"There is no doubt that it is very expensive, but the brand value comes at a cost."
"This is a costly solution. We have several customers who evaluate it but then look for other solutions because of the cost. At present, Informatica MDM comes as an on-premises or cloud-based solution. I would like to see them offer a SaaS-based MDM model. I think they are working on it."
"The regions in which the data resides are still limited. This could be an issue in terms of the data residency laws of some of the countries. They should get more regions."
"The user interface can be a bit more functionality-aligned."
"Once the data is masked, we won't be able to reverse it back to its original value."
"Error reporting and debugging need improvement."
"Mainly, MDM requires improvement when you need to migrate your version to a later one -- because it is very difficult and takes a lot of time to convert the processes you have already developed and implemented on a previous version, and can cause a need to rework the processes."
"The setup is complex."
"It has essentially been "frozen" by Oracle - they don't seem to be updating it any further."
"Some of our users are very picky. This is common, but almost none like the out-of-box report writing, specifically the Ad-hoc reports."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have licenses, and we are provided with certain particular services in the solution."
"We switched to Informatica PIM because it was cheaper than the Oracle solution. It is cheaper initially, but they will bundle it later. This is what happens in the industry."
"The pricing structure is good, but having to pay for extra drivers to be used in an ICS environment makes me a little nervous."
"It's offers value for money. They're more competitive with respect to pricing and offerings."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"I'm not sure about the most recent pricing trends, but I don't believe it's significantly different from PowerCenter. I believe it is nearly the same."
"The price of Informatica Cloud Data Integration could be reduced."
"The platform has a premium cost. I rate the pricing as seven out of ten."
