Pros
"The solution's most valuable features are its data quality, match-merge engine, and CLAIRE AI engine, which helps with AI automation.""I think the integration feature is probably one of the key features in Informatica MDM...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""Address Doctor gives an accurate combination of information provided with a level of returned threshold value.""I like the number of options that are presented with Informatica, fuzzy matching, and your screen.""The most valuable features of Informatica MDM are it is cloud-enabled and has all the elements that are supposed to have in terms of MDM as a solution. All the features that are there. It is very well-integrated with any of the SAP and non-SAP applications. It is quite user-friendly. The user experience that you receive in Informatica MDM is quite good.""Informatica MDM stands out as a tool that can give you the flexibility needed for doing channel-specific data quality or business validation.""I like that Informatica MDM has robust matching technology. Informatica MDM is also porting the external Java applications for validations. I can consider that a must-have. It is also exposed to Rest API calls, and we can engage in real-time integrations with any third-party systems.""The ability to clean out data and improve the data quality is the best feature."

Cons
"Compared to other tools in the market, Informatica MDM is costly.""The integration could be a bit better. The process is something new.""The tool should provide a unified user interface to manage the data objects.""Pre-sales technical support is much better than post-sales technical support.""If I compare it with other MDM solutions in the market, one thing that can definitely be improved is automation to help with the configuration. Currently, when we are creating any staging of base object tables, all the columns have to be configured manually in the Informatica Hub Console. A lot of tables and different kinds of business columns have to be configured manually. There should be an automated process for this, especially in the Dev environment. When people are creating tables and columns from scratch, if there is a backend automated process for that, it would be really helpful. In Stibo, a similar feature is there wherein you can tag attributes to certain objects. It would be helpful if Informatica also provides a similar option. It would reduce the manual effort. It could be that such a feature is already there, but I am not aware of it.""I think they should work really hard on UI.""From multiple masters that are there in Informatica MDM, we can improve the financials.""Informatica MDM's UI is not intuitive enough."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "it's expensive, but if you're looking for a stable solution, Informatica MDM is a good one to choose."
  • "It's pretty high for us. It's more on the higher side, like low to middle high."
  • "It is expensive. That's probably the biggest drawback. The business has heartache paying the license, but that's mainly because they don't realize what value it brings. The key thing about the MDM solution is that it is in the backend, and no one sees what it is actually doing. You don't know it is a problem until it is not there."
  • "Informatica MDM's pricetag should come down. They have to cut some costs."
  • "There is no doubt that it is very expensive, but the brand value comes at a cost. Other MDM solutions in the market that haven't proven themselves like Informatica are also pretty expensive. We need to understand that MDM itself is very expensive to implement. So, Informatica is also pretty expensive. I would rate it a two out of five for being pretty expensive."
  • "It's offers value for money. They're more competitive with respect to pricing and offerings."
  • "Informatica MDM recently changed its pricing model. It's usage-based but I don't have much insight into the current pricing."
  • "Informatica MDM's price could be lower."
