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.

Offers predefined rules and easy to migrate data with minimum customisation of rules
The customization of the data needs improvement. We need to build basic SQL queries rather than being able to do it within the tool. We need to be able to analyze the SQL queries and then rerun them based on customer usage. We should be able to tune the existing process by using simple SQL queries based on the customer's requirements. In future releases, I would like to see more features around Preload and postload reports. From the end-user point of view, it is not very feasible to read. I need to know how the data has been migrated. I need to know whether the complete data has been migrated, only the required data has been migrated, and how it was migrated. So the postload reports will give validation between the source data and the target source. It would give exact picture of the data migration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is very scalable, and if a company needs to expand it, it should not face any issues doing so."
"For the kind of application we have built and run on this tool, it has been very stable and has given consistent performance."
"The application integration will give you more flexibility when dealing with APIs."
"The overall quality of the addresses associated with other master data entities (Customer, Supplier, physical locations, etc.) has improved significantly."
"The user interface is flexible and the visibility of the data flow is amazing."
"The best thing about Informatica Axon is that it integrates with the Electronic Data Capture and the Axon system."
"We reduced product data setup time from 1.5 hours to 30 minutes."
"The interface is really good."
"The major benefits of Syniti Data Quality stem from the productivity and flexibility it offers to users."
"The customer service and support is good."
"Syniti has built-in 80% of the solution, and we only need to customize 20 to 25% of the features. It is easy to run and pre-load reports."
"With Syniti Data Quality, you can integrate SAP and directly fix errors from Syniti Data Quality instead of logging into SAP and then fixing them."
 

Cons

"I have a lot of issues with their customer support and not getting the required technical information, which we actually need unless you can do a call with their senior technicians."
"Informatica should simplify the rules for setting classifications and user access management permissions. It's too complex to define, configure, and make work."
"The integration could be a bit better. The process is something new."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration can improve by being more user-friendly. When you're working with the solution a lot of technical knowledge is required. It's not a solution that anyone can use properly, you need knowledge of what's happening at the back end, such as SQL. When you get stuck, you need to look into your logic. For other tools, such as Dell Boomi, anyone can use them."
"I have encountered some issues using the substitution, which is one of the techniques of data masking."
"IEDC can improve the comparison of lineages."
"Inserting the GenAI into the master data management will reduce the overall effort of operational activities."
"Most of the new features added by Informatica are through Elastic Mapping. It would be helpful to have features like multithreading or partitioning for Salesforce to enhance performance."
"The loading mechanisms and administration processes, particularly in setting up connections and deploying the system, need improvement."
"It would be good if Syniti Data Quality could integrate more AI in the future."
"In Syniti Data Quality, data extraction is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The customization of the data needs improvement. We need to build basic SQL queries rather than being able to do it within the tool. We need to be able to analyze the SQL queries and then rerun them based on customer usage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a very expensive solution"
"Informatica is very expensive."
"The price is comparable."
"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."
"Informatica MDM is a costly solution because it comes as a bundle. They are also globally positioning themselves and are definitely working on very upgraded technologies. If someone wanted to do it on the cloud, they have a lot of flexibility because they upgrade themselves according to the current needs. It definitely comes with a lot of features and that's the reason why it's costly. The licensing cost should be approximately one million dollars. It's about four to five times that of other vendors."
"Its pricing model can be improved."
"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 solution is expensive."
"I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
