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.

Useful to encrypt sensitive data or crown jewel data stored in various places within organizations
One of the most valuable features is the solution's integration with many leading industry solutions, both on-premises and cloud-based. It has API integration with a large number of technologies. The key management capability supports security protocols by providing an additional layer of security by separating duties. It's more secure to store encryption keys in a separate system like Thales rather than locally. If a database is compromised, the keys in Thales remain protected, making it harder for attackers to access the information.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Informatica MDM are the IDQ and RDM data management."
"The advanced features like task flow and conditional integration are particularly useful."
"We are able to set rules, establish a data quality management platform, and monitor the quality."
"It gives you accountability to centralize your data and have it available to different applications."
"Informatica is user-friendly, stable, and scalable. These three aspects are the most valuable for us. If we can make it work well with the CRM, we can continue or try again this year to complete that part of the project. I am confident that this kind of solution is what we need because we have a third-party resource that works in the development."
"Informatica Persistent Data Masking can mask production data for different users, ensuring that only authorized individuals can access sensitive information."
"The ability to clean out data and improve the data quality is the best feature."
"The profiling feature in Informatica Data Quality is incredibly effective for data governance."
"One of the most valuable features is the solution's integration with many leading industry solutions, both on-premises and cloud-based. It has API integration with a large number of technologies."
"Transfer encryption is a great feature of Crypto Suite."
 

Cons

"One area that could use improvement is the speed of the web interfaces. At present, they are very slow. I think it is essential that we are original and robust on-premises."
"The product could be improved in the area of architecture and technology. All the parts are old."
"I need to have some insight into the tool's cloud capabilities."
"There are also some technical issues sometimes with integrations because clients have a lot of different types of data sources."
"The GUI needs to be a little more user-friendly and appealing."
"Their support should be improved. We have had some trouble with their support from time to time. Its scalability should also be improved. I would also like to have a bit more modern and friendly UI for the end-users. There should definitely be a simplified way to configure and set it up."
"Compared to other tools in the market, Informatica MDM is costly."
"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."
"Could be more agent-led with options for simplifying implementation."
"Some feature sets could be improved, particularly alerting, reporting, and monitoring capabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product's pricing a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest price and ten is the highest price."
"I rate the licensing cost of Informatica MDM a five out of ten."
"Licensing is difficult to understand, but the team is always available to explain anything. They are very helpful."
"It is an expensive solution. I would say it is the most expensive solution in the market."
"The licensing price of the product depends on the organization's requirements."
"Comparatively, their prices are a little bit too high."
"The product is not very pocket-friendly for small and medium-sized businesses, and it is understandable because of the kind of features the tool gives."
"We have licenses, and we are provided with certain particular services in the solution."
