Find out what your peers are saying about Informatica, TIBCO, Reltio and others in Cloud Master Data Management (MDM) Solutions."The scalability of the solution is excellent."
"It gives you accountability to centralize your data and have it available to different applications."
"MDM is very stable - it can handle millions of hits daily and still run 24/7."
"It is easy to create REST-based interfaces of the master data objects."
"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."
"Informatica MDM's most valuable feature is the interconnection between multiple Master Data domains."
"The most valuable features of Informatica MDM are the IDQ and RDM data management."
"Address Doctor gives an accurate combination of information provided with a level of returned threshold value."
"One good feature is that SAS MDM comes bundled with the entire stack so we are in a position to place it with the client. So when a client wants an analytics tool plus BI, and they want to bring in other elements, that is when we look to MDM, because it is a single vendor."
"We cannot sell the product directly with an additional layer."
"From multiple masters that are there in Informatica MDM, we can improve the financials."
"The configuration process is pretty lengthy and challenging and could be made easier to understand."
"The on-prem solution is harder to learn than the cloud-based versions."
"Informatica MDM can improve the data catalog and data marketplace."
"I feel the out-of-the-box APIs or the API management could be improved slightly from their current state. It could be more user-friendly."
"I think they should work really hard on UI."
"If I compare it with other MDM solutions in the market, one thing that can definitely be improved is automation to help with the configuration. Currently, when we are creating any staging of base object tables, all the columns have to be configured manually in the Informatica Hub Console. A lot of tables and different kinds of business columns have to be configured manually. There should be an automated process for this, especially in the Dev environment. When people are creating tables and columns from scratch, if there is a backend automated process for that, it would be really helpful. In Stibo, a similar feature is there wherein you can tag attributes to certain objects. It would be helpful if Informatica also provides a similar option. It would reduce the manual effort. It could be that such a feature is already there, but I am not aware of it."
"The initial setup was slightly complex. We did face a couple of issues such as the SAML integration not being very smooth. And linking communication with the metadata server was a bit of a challenge. Eventually, we were able to configure it properly."
