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.

Used to manage the complete attributes of products, but its installation could be a little bit easier
The solution is deployed on the cloud in our organization. It's not difficult for people to learn to use the solution. Oracle provides training to use the solution through many training videos available on Oracle University. I would recommend the solution to other users. Once you create an item in the solution, it will be automatically available in other modules. The solution is fully integrated with other Oracle models. If you want to integrate the solution with non-Oracle modules, you have to work on it. There are always options to integrate the solution with non-Oracle applications. It would be easier to integrate the solution with other Oracle applications because there are options to do so. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support services are good."
"I have used a lot of MDM tools, and I've found that Informatica is the best solution out of all of them in terms of the architecture and user-friendliness."
"The interface is really good."
"The solution scales well."
"Technical support and Informatica Professional Services are friendly and helpful."
"Mapping designer seems to be easier to use even when compared with PowerCenter which is a great improvement."
"Axon has something called Overlay, which can be used to extend the technical lineage."
"The product is the best in the industry (as it is multidomain) and the vendor support is excellent."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the management of the complete attributes of products and services."
 

Cons

"We promote our code changes from a lower to a higher environment, which is highly complex when working with a multi-domain MDM like Informatica."
"The integration could be a bit better. The process is something new."
"Error reporting and debugging need improvement."
"Informatica's issue is the licensing."
"In general, it is good. We used to face some Java application problems, approximately two issues a month."
"Informatica is very expensive."
"The on-prem solution is harder to learn than the cloud-based versions."
"I have encountered some issues using the substitution, which is one of the techniques of data masking."
"The solution's installation could be a little bit easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Informatica Axon is expensive."
"It's offers value for money. They're more competitive with respect to pricing and offerings."
"We pay for a yearly subscription."
"The solution's pricing model is easy, but it is very expensive."
"It is an expensive solution. I would say it is the most expensive solution in the market."
"The product has a high price point."
"The pricing is high compared to other tools on the market."
"It is expensive. That's probably the biggest drawback. The business has heartache paying the license, but that's mainly because they don't realize what value it brings. The key thing about the MDM solution is that it is in the backend, and no one sees what it is actually doing. You don't know it is a problem until it is not there."
