This is a very beautiful tool compared to other tools on the market. I recommend Informatica because anyone with a bit of knowledge, even a beginner or intern, can explore, learn, and accomplish development tasks without much difficulty. For those considering any integration tool, Informatica is one of the best available options in the market. I still see that they are working aggressively to introduce new features. They are continuously adding improvements to our services. They keep on enhancing the tool based on the information they receive. Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services can handle huge volumes of data effectively; it is highly scalable and manages security well by playing with metadata instead of directly dealing with data. This aspect allows us to build our code without exposing client information, which are significant pros. However, there are still areas requiring improvement, especially on the API side, as it can't handle large volumes. There is much more need to be built regarding images, merging, and other features related to application integration tools within Informatica. Once everything is set up, the team can easily manage the system because there are not major challenges once the setup is done correctly. I don't believe we face any challenges, except for instances when the server is down, which is a different use case altogether. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services a 9.5.

For a robust use case, especially for large enterprises, Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services is a good tool with good support. However, make sure to have a budget ready. I would rate it an eight out of ten.

I recommend Intelligent Cloud Services for companies of all sizes, including small and medium enterprises, as administration costs can be saved, and the service offers cloud connectivity and plugins. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.
If you have experience with similar tools or a general understanding of IT concepts, it's easier to grasp. Learning the features takes time, but with an IT background, you should be able to figure out the basics. We all encounter challenges sometimes and need to learn new things. Overall, it's not overly difficult or overly simple. It's manageable if you have the right mindset. It's definitely a good tool, especially if you're using cloud services and an S3 bucket. It has many features to simplify your work and make your life easy. It's not overly difficult to learn, but proper training is essential to understand and make the most of all the features. Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.
I would ask those who plan to use the solution to go ahead with the proof of concept stage initially and choose a scenario that they want to know more about so that they get a better understanding of the tool. I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.

I'm using data integration and app integration tools from Informatica, in particular, Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services and Informatica Data Quality. I'm working with the latest update of Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services. The solution doesn't require any maintenance after it's deployed. In my company, across all departments, between five hundred to six hundred people use Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services. On a scale of one to five, in terms of performance, I'd give Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services a four when it's used in a complex environment. If it's just at the source and destination without multiple technologies, then it's fine. If you have to build an entire architecture, or when you compare from end-to-end, and multiple systems will be involved, then the performance of Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services needs improvement because connectivity issues in a complex system affect the performance. The advice I would give to anyone looking into implementing Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services is to get a POC done for the complex use cases for your organization. If the data hasn't been used for years and you have to move that to another source, be it the cloud or any other new technologies, take the data and do a POC for profiling, cleansing, and transformation for the different sets of data. For example, chunk the data, get the categories, then see how it is. Once that's done, look further and check if it's real-time, or it's a batch. If it's real-time, check how much time it's taking, and if it's aligned with your use case. If you're using Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services for so many applications, do an end-to-end as a POC and check the time to see if it gives the time performance index, how the performance is, and how is it landing at the destination. My rating for Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services is eight out of ten. My company is a customer of Informatica.
This product is the most agile way to use all of the data capabilities and data services that you need to exploit in your company. We are happy with all of the features that it has and it is difficult to think about anything that should be added. It contains all of the capabilities that Informatica has. My advice for anybody who is implementing this product is to have a clear roadmap of their cloud journey. Operating in the cloud and the way we work is much different than we are used to in an on-premises environment. The most important concept that people need to have clear is onboarding this kind of solution. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services is a next generation iPaaS, which is made up of a growing number of data management products. The productivity of the environment is accelerated by a common user experience across all products, the AI/ML-driven intelligence of the CLAIRE™ engine, and a microservices architecture.
