"Our use case is for integration factory for SAP. It is mostly for SAP integration."
"I like the tool's scalability."
"The solution is scalable."
"The connectivity that the tool provides, along with the functionalities needed for our company's business, are some of the beneficial aspects of the product."
"Oracle's self-service capabilities, of which we make extensive use, is the most valuable feature."
"There's hardware, software and application integration, providing hosting flexibility."
"It's easy to construct new interfaces like apps and client portals."
"Informatica PowerCenter could improve by having a single interface because half of the system is still in the legacy interface and many other elements are moved to the developer client. It would be good if there was a single interface for the end user and developers."
"If we could have the option of performance improvement within Informatica, and if it could have more features, that would be ideal."
"In the future, I would like to see Informatica PowerCenter integrate a more powerful dashboard."
"Its scalability can be improved. It is not scalable."
"What needs improvement in Informatica PowerCenter is the cloud experience because, nowadays, other companies, such as AWS, Azure, and Google, have more experience in the cloud. The pricing for Informatica PowerCenter on the cloud is also very expensive for customers, so some customers prefer open-source tools or lower-priced tools, such as Azure. From my point of view, Informatica must work on the pricing policy and review the policy on the cloud for Informatica PowerCenter or propose more tools with lower pricing. Clients want the automatic integration of Informatica PowerCenter with other tools. Currently, the integration process is manual, and you have to add other tools to facilitate the integration, especially with the DevOps methodology. You need scripts and tools for the integration, and you'll need to use other integration tools if you want automatic deployment for Informatica PowerCenter, so this is another area for improvement in the solution. What I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is for the integration with APIs to be simpler, because currently, the API integration feature of Informatica PowerCenter is very difficult. It's not intuitive. You have to facilitate API integration and the real-time streaming of messages in Kafka, for example, so that should be improved."
"It would be good to recreate the entire interface to make it easier for users to build workflows."
"Informatica are very rigid when it comes to cloud migrations which discourages customers in moving their solution to the cloud."
"This solution needs the functionality to do batch processing of data. It also lacks connectivity to NoSQL, unstructured data sources."
"Rules engine processes and BPM processes should be improved."
"I am not satisfied with the solution because it takes too much effort to migrate and add new information. The migration could be easier."
"It is difficult to maintain."
"The solution's release management feature could be better."
"The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The products, at the moment, are new and there should perhaps be support for the older version of the protocols."
"webMethods.io Integration's installation is complex. It should also improve integration and connectors."
