We performed a comparison between Informatica MDM, SAP Hybris PCM, and Talend Open Studio for MDM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, TIBCO, Reltio and others in Cloud Master Data Management (MDM) Solutions."I think that it's a good solution...It is stable because we have the experience to deploy this solution."
"The most valuable features of Informatica MDM are its reliability, match functions, and integration capabilities. The out-of-box functionality of deduplication and built-in data models ensure faster implementation."
"It has been leading the market with hierarchy management and all the different match concepts and algorithms. They're very robust."
"The ability to clean out data and improve the data quality is the best feature."
"Address Doctor gives an accurate combination of information provided with a level of returned threshold value."
"I think the integration feature is probably one of the key features in Informatica MDM...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It is easy to create REST-based interfaces of the master data objects."
"The tool manually checks on applying business rules and helps to implement them."
"Hybris is stable and has good architecture. It's easy to maintain."
"The most valuable features are the stewardship and the data prep."
"The biggest advantage of Talend is that they have an active community. If we face any issue, we can get input in a short duration of time."
"I really like the data fabric."
"New machine learning could be added to Informatica MDM because the solution is outdated and is not moving with the current trends. The solution is good, but it definitely needs a lot of improvement and needs to speed up as per the market."
"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."
"The configurations could be better. It is a bit confusing because we must develop two tools when building a data model in Informatica MDM. Even though Informatica MDM is a single tool, we have our hub console plus the provisioning tool within that. Whatever data model we are building in the hub console, we have to develop it in the provisioning tool again. It is double the work to create a data model. We are also using external calls or the Java custom plans functions. This can be both positive and negative. Since MDM as a client does not support any complex validation, we have to depend on the external call or a Java call. Every time we deployed, the entire solution was impacted if something went wrong."
"The advertising makes promises about data analytics that it does not keep."
"Informatica MDM could improve the interdependency with integration. The solution sometimes becomes a bit difficult to change considering a lot of interdependency with the integration. There can be some improvement in the workflows and they can introduce more artificial intelligence."
"It could be a bit more intuitive, rather than technically complex."
"The UI is terrible and not user-friendly."
"I think everything related to the APIs and the manageability of the APIs in Informatica MDM are areas where improvements are required."
"They can change their backend because it's a little hard to work with. They could streamline it with new technology."
"It can definitely be improved on the UI side. They can provide a better UI as compared to what is currently available. I'm trying to set up the UI to capture some information, and when I try to use the native feature of Talend, I'm finding it difficult. It could be improved a bit. Only when it comes to MDM, it is not user-friendly, but when it comes to data integration of Big Data, it's extremely user-friendly."
"I do not have notes for improvement."
"Creating a model and deploying it is a little bit tricky in Talend, compared to other tools."
