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.

Its functionality and performance are adequate but it provides a single source of truth for customer data
We use it as the Master Data Management platform for a large bank in Australia which has many separate customer data repositories The intent of this platform is to provide a single source of truth for customer data. To some extent, this has been achieved. Any customer MDM project tends to be…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The features I find most valuable is the synchronization, verification, functionalities and all the data integration features."
"It is unquestionably a good investment if used properly."
"I rate the solution's scalability a ten out of ten."
"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 scales well."
"Most of our customers were using excel and email-based communication for data access, and these new-age solutions improve efficiency ten times or more."
"I was responsible for installing Informatica Cloud Data Quality on Google infrastructure, which was straightforward."
"It is quite easy to use and flexible."
"The intent of this platform is to provide a single source of truth for customer data."
"It is a solid, reliable product with a robust development history and good support behind them."
 

Cons

"I have encountered some issues using the substitution, which is one of the techniques of data masking."
"Right now, although they offer some templates, I would want more templates available to be imported."
"It is expensive."
"Its pricing model can be improved."
"Their UI needs improvement. Their scorecards and reporting also need improvement. Their data quality reporting, especially their dashboards and scorecards, is lackluster at best. Its reporting capabilities are limited. If you want to do anything beyond its limited reporting capabilities, then you're going to have to use an external reporting tool such as Power BI or something like that."
"Interoperability is one area where EDC has room for improvement."
"Informatica products are always increasing in price. Nowadays, many of their customers are leaving and seeking other data integration tools."
"In terms of what could be improved, they need to create a rules repository."
"Any customer MDM project tends to be complicated and difficult to show a positive business case over a short to medium time frame."
"It has essentially been "frozen" by Oracle - they don't seem to be updating it any further."
"OCH has adequate functionality and performance to serve a group customer master."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The licensing price of the product depends on the organization's requirements."
"The solution's pricing model is easy, but it is very expensive."
"We switched to Informatica PIM because it was cheaper than the Oracle solution. It is cheaper initially, but they will bundle it later. This is what happens in the industry."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The platform has a premium cost. I rate the pricing as seven out of ten."
"The solution is expensive."
"It's pretty high for us. It's more on the higher side, like low to middle high."
