We performed a comparison between Informatica Cloud Data Integration and Oracle GoldenGate based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I do a quite a lot of data transformations, and the fact that I can do them without changing any of my SQL queries from the code, using the inbuilt tools, is very helpful."
"Replication allows us to fully replicate all objects from Shop Floor Data Collection (SFDC) to in-house/on-premises database in one job."
"Whether we need data cleansing or data mastering, we get it all in one platform."
"The product improves data quality."
"It is one of the best tools available for data integration."
"The Mapping Designer allows for declarative ETL development (visual scripting) that leverages a wide array of different transformations."
"The most valuable feature is the building of mockups and tasks."
"Data integration is the most valuable feature. The ability to connect to any of the sources and enterprise applications makes our lives easier."
"The most valuable features of Oracle GoldenGate are the schema application and performance."
"It is a scalable solution."
"With Oracle GoldenGate, you can easily sync the tables and put them into the ODS database."
"GoldenGate enables us to merge and transform data from various sources in real time. It's a powerful tool that can read and load most data sources."
"They've recently improved the ease of implementation."
"Many of the features of Oracle GoldenGate are valuable. We use Oracle databases and this tool is from Oracle, making it have superior compatibility."
"It scales well. You can either have it working in with the databases, or you can move it outside. It's got the ability to parallelize up, so you can certainly extract and replay the data from your databases in parallel. So it does have horizontal scalability. That is probably one of its stronger features, the ability just to automatically parallelize the replay and playing of data to allow to scale to large volumes."
"Ease of installation, maintenance and powerful outputs and supporting Big Data and Cloud environment as well as OGGCS (Oracle Golden Gate Cloud Service)."
"Performance also needs to be significantly improved, especially when connecting to SFDC for read and write operations."
"The cloud version of the Informatica, it's a very substandard product. They might say it's enterprise-ready but it's not at all ready. They need to add more features, such as improved data replication features. If you look at other tools, such as Matillion they are now cloud-native and flexible. Additionally, Informatica Cloud Data Integration should have a good migration strategy from Informatica PowerCenter to Informatica Cloud Data Integration."
"There is room for improvement at the highest level in terms of useability and connectors for various types of new applications. The row processing performance could be better because you experience some latency dealing with high volumes of data. Most organizations will be dealing with multiple cloud applications, so you could see performance issues moving from one system to another."
"The main issue preventing Brazilian companies from migrating to Informatica Cloud Data Integration from on-prem is the price."
"The cloud version could be better in terms of pricing."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration could improve the price by making it less expensive."
"Certain shortcomings in the product's UI make it an area where improvements are required."
"We would like to have accessibility to the repository."
"The front-end management isn't very good."
"Regarding improvements, the focus should be on addressing data quality issues and minimizing delays, particularly in Oracle databases. The technical support should be improved as well. Additionally, in terms of features, it would be great if the solution could support APIs. The support is not friendly. They don’t respond on time."
"Oracle GoldenGate could improve the price."
"The tool's connections are disconnected at times. The tool needs to integrate other databases."
"Microservices Architecture is not user-friendly."
"I find the user interface to be difficult for non-technical people."
"It is not a very stable tool, and you need to monitor it perfectly."
"Oracle GoldenGate can enhance its functionality by enabling the merging of multiple migrations into one."
