Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Mainstream integration and real-time integration are the best features.""Provides a significant amount of control over the landscape and overall implementation.""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.""This product is easy to install and it can be done in a few hours.""The transformation work called for Informatica PowerExchange. It was easy to work with this and very stable.""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.""The scalability is excellent.""It is easy to integrate the solution with other tools."

"It's a very complete product. It allows us to network security and add more layers of security to the system.""The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone.""The installation process is easy.""It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well.""In my opinion, the most valuable aspect of this solution is its extensive range of adaptors and connectors. This feature holds significant importance and provides great value to users.""I like the user-friendly system and development of the service-oriented architecture.""The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable.""The stability is excellent."

Cons
"The one place where it could be improved is definitely pricing. That's a very big problem. It depends product to product, but pricing is an issue.""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.""The product's high costs can be an area of concern where improvements are required.""Informatica is very expensive in all aspects, so the pricing is something that could be improved.""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.""Integration with the largest number of databases and other systems would be important.""I would like to have easier integration with cloud platforms.""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."

"You cannot include the validation of XPath.""The customization can be a bit difficult.""The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality.""The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs.""I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version.""There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced.""The setup can be difficult for those not familiar with the solution."
