Cons
"They need more feature flexibility, as it is not fully developed.""Its look and feel needs improvement. It has a lousy look and feel. Informatica PIM is designed specifically for the retail industry. They need to make sure that it is also applicable to all the other industries and verticals.""Database access is highly restricted particularly if you're using the cloud version."

More Informatica PIM Cons →

"The UI could improve by being more neat and clean. Sometimes users find it difficult to use it.""There were challenges with handling multiple values within a single input field at the screen level.""Overall, they just a little bit more flexibility in terms of assigning roles or adding new roles. We have a longer approval process, so we need to break it down into more roles than what is typically available and we need to hard-code it.""The user interface is not user-friendly.""The platform's pricing needs improvement.""They should improve the solution's performance as sometimes the process consumes much time.""In general, I want artificial intelligence added to SAP Master Data Governance since I feel it is one of the areas where the solution has certain shortcomings.""The documentation provided for the MDG extensions by Utopia could be improved."
