We performed a comparison between Informatica PowerExchange and Oracle Data Integrator Cloud Service 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."The transformation work called for Informatica PowerExchange. It was easy to work with this and very stable."
"The solution can connect to different systems i.e. mainframe, IMS or AS/400 Legacy Systems."
"The data transformation is the solution's most valuable feature."
"Overall, it's a good tool. It's currently number one on the market. It pretty much has all the necessary capabilities to pull the incremental data from the source system, technically speaking."
"The main benefit of PowerExchange is its native real-time capabilities. Competing tools are counting on third-party packages or Oracle to offer real-time capabilities. However, Informatica has a native ability to scan the data on the file system level and capture the changes almost instantly when I push it to the consumers. The solution has a powerful built-in replication engine."
"The scalability is excellent."
"The agentless RCDC enablement through PowerExchange is a great idea and has worked very well so far."
"It is a scalable and versatile solution."
"Oracle integration cloud has got the adapters for all their products, which makes integration faster."
"The most valuable thing to me is its simplicity. A person with zero knowledge can also develop the integration without having extensive technology knowledgebase. They can also work on creating their own integration."
"The data is stored in the cloud, making it easy to download data simultaneously into multiple smaller servers, effectively downsizing the process."
"Having a single vendor supporting the entire suite of applications."
"It's on the cloud, so it's scalable and quite easy to work with."
"The solution is easy to manage and offers good integration. You can run all the tasks one by one which is really helpful, and pick the day and time to do so."
"Oracle Data Integrator helps us build tables and data marts and allows us to schedule them daily, for nearly real-time data warehousing."
"The solution could be made more user-friendly. The configurations are also quite difficult."
"I would like the stability to improve."
"The one place where it could be improved is definitely pricing. That's a very big problem. It depends product to product, but pricing is an issue."
"The solution needs better integration with other tools."
"V10.2 is very stable, but we are still struggling to make V10.5 stable. We found services that were down, and PowerExchange stopped working."
"I would like to have easier integration with cloud platforms."
"Apache Spark has a machine learning algorithm, an area where Informatica PowerExchange lacks."
"The product's high costs can be an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It can be made much easier for users. They should be allowed to easily monitor the data extraction and flow, allowing them to observe real-time data flow within the software, making the process straightforward."
"The pricing could be more competitive."
"This is an expensive solution compared to other products on the market."
"I would like to see different cloud adapters or connectors in case of integration. When you have Oracle to Oracle, they are good. They have really good connectors, but if it is a different ERP, like Obsidian, that is where they are faced with problems in OIC."
"I've found technical support not very effective. They should work to improve their services."
"Bulk uploading can be a problem when you hit the upper limit."
"It's lacking a lot of mapping features that Oracle OSB and SOA have. It needs to evolve a lot."
