Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."It has a Data Catalog that uses the Model repository."
"The most valuable feature of Informatica PowerCenter is the flow designer functionally. It is the best out of any ETL tool. Additionally, the solution is reliable and trustable in dealing with large data sources anytime. When we're using billions of data transactions, it's smooth."
"I like the completeness of the way I can build ETL workflows."
"The most valuable feature is the new Data Lake feature, which provides the basic capabilities needed."
"UI-based ability to create data mapping."
"It is UI friendly and has all the advantages of an ETL tool."
"PowerCenter performs well during data transformation and optimization."
"The performance and design of Informatica have been very valuable. I find the performance faster than, say, Oracle Data Integrator or DataStage."
"The Cloud Console for monitoring and troubleshooting data operations."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It runs like an appliance and has tremendous throughput."
"It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data."
"The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors)."
"We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate."
"Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features."
"Easy integration with Salesforce"
"I would like to see improvements made to the custom transformations. It should be more open for users that want to write their own code and use cases."
"There is some room for improvement in terms of pricing."
"It would be better if I could do all the work within a single window. If I'm working on any mapping and if I have to switch to sessions, I have to open a new window altogether. If I have to get into workflows, I have to open a new window. It was also very expensive. In the next release, I would like it to be more user-friendly."
"What I didn't like about it is that the platform itself is not great at distributed processing. When you need high parallel processing, it has some inherent issues. We had to use Java transformation, and it did not go very well. I have heard that it is going to the cloud, but we haven't tried that."
"The reputation of Informatica is that it is expensive."
"It would be good to recreate the entire interface to make it easier for users to build workflows."
"I found it is kind of weird that not all of the mapping changes are treated as true changes."
"The performance of Informatica PowerCenter could improve."
"In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations."
"I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot."
"Sometimes additional connectors are needed."
"Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs."
"Its API management capabilities need improvement."
"I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security."
"There were some bugs in the product. For example if you run a delete query and test, it deletes the actual data."
"Looping through complex data structures can be difficult."
