Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"From the product feature or product capability perspective, the aspects around integration, transformation, and standardization are valuable. It's fairly easy to use. It has a GUI-based interface.""Provides a significant amount of control over the landscape and overall implementation.""Overall, it's a good tool. It's currently number one on the market. It pretty much has all the necessary capabilities to pull the incremental data from the source system, technically speaking.""Mainstream integration and real-time integration are the best features.""The main benefit of PowerExchange is its native real-time capabilities. Competing tools are counting on third-party packages or Oracle to offer real-time capabilities. However, Informatica has a native ability to scan the data on the file system level and capture the changes almost instantly when I push it to the consumers. The solution has a powerful built-in replication engine.""The product’s flexibility is valuable.""The most valuable feature is connectivity to data sources.""It is easy to integrate the solution with other tools."

"There's hardware, software and application integration, providing hosting flexibility.""Our use case is for integration factory for SAP. It is mostly for SAP integration.""I like the tool's scalability.""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.""The solution is scalable.""Oracle's self-service capabilities, of which we make extensive use, is the most valuable feature.""It's easy to construct new interfaces like apps and client portals."

Cons
"Pushdown optimization could be improved.""The product's high costs can be an area of concern where improvements are required.""I would like the stability to improve.""They should make it quick and easy for use of citizen data integration or for people or integrators developing at the customer side. They could be development teams within the business team. For them, the product owners can consider making it a little bit more seamless and a little bit more democratized.""Real-time has not been enhanced that much over the past few years. There has not been as many features added like they did before.""Technical support can be improved with respect to delays in ticket response time.""Should diversify more, maybe with a reporting and visualization utility,""V10.2 is very stable, but we are still struggling to make V10.5 stable. We found services that were down, and PowerExchange stopped working."

More Informatica PowerExchange Cons →

"I am not satisfied with the solution because it takes too much effort to migrate and add new information. The migration could be easier.""The products, at the moment, are new and there should perhaps be support for the older version of the protocols.""It is difficult to maintain.""Rules engine processes and BPM processes should be improved.""webMethods.io Integration's installation is complex. It should also improve integration and connectors.""The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The solution's release management feature could be better."
