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.

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

"We are able to set rules, establish a data quality management platform, and monitor the quality."
"We have a lot of integrations, and it's very easy to create integrations. They have a lot of connectors."
"I think that it's a good solution...It is stable because we have the experience to deploy this solution."
"I do find Informatica Data Quality is stable. It generally maintains a high level of reliability and stability, making it an asset."
"It has all the advantages of the Cloud in that you can use it without worrying about infrastructure, upkeep, or upgrades."
"We use parts and standardization for most of our testing. We purchase the US Postal Service address database, which is updated periodically. Many useful tools, such as Google Maps, can detect and mark new businesses or changes in business locations. Informatica captures and updates this information. Some periodic maintenance is involved, but setting it up is not overly complicated."
"The technical support services are good."
"It's a stable product without any bugs or glitches."
"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
 

Cons

"IEDC can improve the comparison of lineages."
"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."
"The solution doesn't directly connect to any of the analytical tools."
"In terms of cost effectiveness, Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) is more than 20% costly compared to the industry."
"It needs to be a little more intuitive but it’s really not bad."
"Informatica MDM can improve the data catalog and data marketplace."
"The model is somewhat flexible. There are certain aspects of the model that are not as flexible as we would like. It doesn't do certain things to a great level of depth. So, in situations where we want to drill in to do something specific, we have to essentially copy that data into our own structures in order to add that additional layer of flexibility."
"Its features for partitioning and optimization could be better."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has a high price point."
"Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
"It's an expensive solution."
"We got a 50% discount."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"It is cost effective and an easily accessible tool."
"The solution's pricing model is easy, but it is very expensive."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price, and ten is high price."
