Helpful in handling areas like complex data sources and data processing but needs improved support services
The major challenge with the tool stems from the fact that if you are implementing it in the cloud, then it has to be within the framework. Another challenge is the large volume of data. Informatica PowerExchange is a product through which we enable connectivity, so it is not an application product or a stand-alone tool, but Informatica's core systems or IICS uses it to connect to multiple systems. The major challenge associated with the tool is on the infrastructure side. The tool's features could be something faster with more connectors. A number of connectors can help connect to a wide variety of applications. The tool should focus on reducing the resilient time, like, if any network disconnectivity happens, then auto-reconnection and the retry method should be more robust so that manual intervention is not required. We communicate with the tool's support team as we need to raise our issues with them. I have already worked with Informatica and have a total experience of around eight to nine years; the one problem with the tool is its support team since they take a lot of time to address a particular issue. If one time you schedule a call and explain the situation to them about the issue, the support team will raise tickets and take notes. They will ask you to share the logs or screenshots of the errors, and you will get no resolution. The support team will randomly give you some documents and expect you to go through them, and if you get back to them with questions, a new person will be allocated, and you will have to start explaining everything again. I would not say it is a pleasant experience.

A solution that offers good performance, good stability, and a straightforward setup
We are a reseller of the solution. We handle on-premises deployment. The solution is very similar to IBM. It may have a bit more integration capabilities that IBM doesn't have yet, but they are similar. In terms of which would be better, it would come down to the customer's requirements. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. All of our customers are very happy and very impressed with the product.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product's initial setup phase was not complex. The tool is easy to install onto any of the servers, and you can integrate it."
"Provides a significant amount of control over the landscape and overall implementation."
"This product is easy to install and it can be done in a few hours."
"It is a scalable and versatile solution."
"The agentless RCDC enablement through PowerExchange is a great idea and has worked very well so far."
"The product’s flexibility is valuable."
"The data transformation is the solution's most valuable feature."
"In terms of the return on investment, the tool is very helpful in the digital transformation process since multiple systems are available."
"With regards to choosing flash versus traditional storage, it's just so much simpler to manage and users get so much better performance from flash."
 

Cons

"Should diversify more, maybe with a reporting and visualization utility,"
"The product's high costs can be an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I have minimal exposure to PowerExchange at this point."
"It would be helpful to have more metadata provided, which is useful for engaging more users in data exchange."
"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."
"The major challenge associated with the tool is on the infrastructure side."
"Integration with the largest number of databases and other systems would be important."
"Technical support can be improved with respect to delays in ticket response time."
"The pricing model could use improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are licensing and connector costs. Basically, Informatica is pay-as-you-use."
"It's expensive. In fact, nobody would buy any product of Informatica if the price was the only consideration. It costs money, and it doesn't come cheap, but it provides value for money in many ways."
"The product is not very expensive."
"An annual package license fee is required."
"The cost of PowerExchange is reasonable. It does not rely on complicated formulas or unrealistic equations. The pricing model is straightforward. There is one component, and real-time integration is included. Some other solutions require purchasing additional modules or third-party plugins for this capability."
"Many users don't prefer to use the product, considering the high costs attached to the licensing part of the solution."
"There is a need to pay towards the licensing cost of the product. It is an expensive product."
