Cloud data catalog has streamlined lineage and quality while leaving more automation to improve
I have not explored IDMC's automation capabilities driven by AI and metadata too much at the moment, but it is on the cards. We are basically creating the foundation, as the whole migration has taken place recently and it is still early days. I think Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) is evolving, and as the vendors move forward, they pick up new concepts from each other. I have seen that products leapfrog each other, and from my experience over the years, the big players tend to copy features or add enhancements based on industry trends. I feel whatever the tool does not have now, there is a feedback loop allowing us to request new features, and we continually ask for different ways to do things as we have a pipeline into the product management team. It is difficult to say what additional features I would prefer to see in the next release of IDMC. I would appreciate more automation on the lineage front, with more AI to seamlessly join independent sources and create seamless lineage between different technologies, such as from file into database A into a different database and landing up in a reporting system such as Cognos, Qlik, Qlik Sense, QlikView, or Power BI.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest benefit of using the product is identifying the issues, enabling a more flexible working method."
"What I do appreciate about the cloud is the transparent update cycles with minimal downtime, all managed within the cloud environment, which definitely provides a better user experience."
"The solution provides increased efficiency while still being user-friendly and easy to operate."
"The flexibility to interact with many different sources and targets like Oracle, MySQL, Flat Files, Informix, and SAP through PowerExchange, applying different transformations that you can configure in an intuitive way, gives both business and IT teams the opportunity to track the data lineage and also to provide value to the data workflows you create, integrated to feed the MDM solution together with Data Quality processes."
"Axon does one interesting thing that I don't think other tools do as well. It lets you rate data and incorporates Informatica's data quality feature into it. There are little indications and graphics that show you how good the data quality is, and you can drill into it to see where potential issues lie."
"The cost of the product is high, but feature wise, it provides a whole lot of features that can easily solve your problems."
"We have matured as an organization with regards to better quality management, and we have evolved over time."
"The most valuable feature of Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services for me is the availability of connectors."
"The profiling features are much better than the on-premise version."
 

Cons

"The platform's initial setup process could be better."
"Informatica Axon's response times and certain aspects of the admin panel could be enhanced for better usability."
"Informatica's issue is the licensing."
"Once the data is masked, we won't be able to reverse it back to its original value."
"With the solution, we had some issues, and we have every day, and we used to open a ticket. Sometimes, there are data issues and transformation issues."
"We haven't had many technical issues. We don't use all of the components of the tool that are more complex and error-prone."
"A general improvement in icons and the virtual interface would be good."
"I definitely will not recommend Informatica Cloud Data Quality because it's very hard to manage the licensing model and the price is very high."
"Although we are very satisfied with the design of the UI, executing tasks with it can be difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The licensing price of the product depends on the organization's requirements."

"It's a costly solution"
"I have heard from customers that the product comes with a huge license cost."
"The price is neither too high nor too low."
"I rate the product's pricing a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest price and ten is the highest price."
"I rate Informatica MDM's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
