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.

Effective data transformation and integration in complex environments with high functionality

Something that could be improved in WSO2 Enterprise Integrator is that the problem is not a lack of capability or functionalities. The problem is that it is a very complex environment. To put your hand on this environment is a very demanding task. This is the real problem. The problem is not about the product, but about the complexity to manage, to configure, to decide what to do. I have some experience using SAP R/3. It seems to me something similar. When you have to configure a situation with a client, especially for a client not in an industrial sector, but in a service sector, it is quite usual that you are in trouble for some reason. This is always the story that I found in the implementations I have done. Maybe there are only three or four big problems, in some other cases there are more than that, but this is the situation usually. For WSO2 Enterprise Integrator, not the same, but I must say it is quite often there is a need to put together some pieces and make it work in a coordinated way.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can see all our information on a single screen."

"It can automatically connect or associate business terms with various options, providing flexibility beyond general capabilities."

"The data integration and synchronization features in IICS improve the data handling processes."

"I would definitely recommend Informatica Data Quality to others."

"The solution is easier to use compared to the other solutions."

"The capability of the tool to scan and capture the metadata from a variety of sources is one of the capabilities that I find most useful. The central repository into which it is going to put that captured metadata is the best."

"I do find Informatica Data Quality is stable. It generally maintains a high level of reliability and stability, making it an asset."

"Address Doctor gives an accurate combination of information provided with a level of returned threshold value."

More Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) pros

"From the capabilities and functional possibility and anything else technical, it is a very well-done product, I have to say."

"The connectors have been the most impactful features for handling integrations. I can use these connectors when I need specific connectivity with a third party, like a core banking system in BFSI. I don't need to do all the development. I take the specific connector, put in the IP address and password, and it takes care of everything."

"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."

"The productivity is the most valuable feature. It is very easy to write remediations."

"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."

"In my opinion, the most valuable aspect of this solution is its extensive range of adaptors and connectors. This feature holds significant importance and provides great value to users."

"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."

"The customer service executives are very responsive."

Cons

"The integration with other data management tools can be enhanced. For instance, there is no integration with tools like Collibra or Hubview."

"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."

"Error reporting and debugging need improvement."

"The UX and UI of the solution are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements can be made in the future."

"One thing Informatica could improve is the way IPUs are used. Each customer purchases a certain amount of IPUs per month, but you can use more or less than that defined quantity. The only problem is if you don't use the all your IPUs, they don't carry over into the next month. I think customers should have the ability to transfer unused IPUs into the next month or year. This improvement could help give customers more flexibility, especially since cloud solutions need flexibility in how we use and pay for them."

"If a new solution has the same features and less investment, it would be worth considering."

"It could be a bit more intuitive, rather than technically complex."

"Cost-wise, it could be better."

More Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) cons

"The main issue with the product is pricing. It uses core-based pricing for WSO2 Enterprise Integrator and API Manager. It would be best if you had APIM by default. It provides many connectors for easy integration with third-party systems."

"In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience."

"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."

"They should release upgrades more frequently."

"The integration capabilities need to be improved."

"The server is very specific and it is very difficult to get experience with it."

"They should introduce better pricing for small companies."

"You cannot include the validation of XPath."

More WSO2 Enterprise Integrator cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is quite flexible."

"We got a 50% discount."

"There is no doubt that it is very expensive, but the brand value comes at a cost. Other MDM solutions in the market that haven't proven themselves like Informatica are also pretty expensive. We need to understand that MDM itself is very expensive to implement. So, Informatica is also pretty expensive. I would rate it a two out of five for being pretty expensive."

"Informatica is very expensive."

"I have heard from customers that the product comes with a huge license cost."

"The solution is expensive."

"Our customers sometimes are able to negotiate a much better price for Informatica Cloud Data Integration based on their relationship with the vendor."

"It's an expensive solution."

More Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) pricing and cost advice

"The cost is better than IBM Cloud Pak."

"The solution costs about 20,000 or 30,000 euros per year, per instance."

"The pricing of WSO2 Enterprise Integrator for enterprise subscriptions can be considered expensive, especially from the perspective of someone who prefers open-source software."

"It is a low-cost solution."

"I rate the product price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."

"The open-source, unsupported version is available free of charge."
