Additionally, new features are frequently added."
"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."
"I like the number of options that are presented with Informatica, fuzzy matching, and your screen."
"This is where I think MDM shines - with its strong fuzzy matching algorithm. This is the essence of Informatica MDM. Based on these results, I can write our match conditions and then perform the corresponding data management activities."
"It gives you accountability to centralize your data and have it available to different applications."
"Address Doctor gives an accurate combination of information provided with a level of returned threshold value."
"Its data cleansing capabilities are very valuable. The match and merge and the audit trail functionalities are very good."

"The tool manually checks on applying business rules and helps to implement them."
"The solution is continually being improved by adding features. They should continue to improve the solution in the future."
"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."
"The biggest pain point for us is the documentation. Typically, you have to go through knowledge forums and knowledge groups to find out about the syntax issues for interfacing with new products. Typically, you've got to deal with someone who has been through the pain before. Their documents are not really up to date with current innovations happening in the industry. As big as they are, you can't really expect it, but that's our pain point."
"The advertising makes promises about data analytics that it does not keep."
"I think they should work really hard on UI."
"It could be a bit more intuitive, rather than technically complex."
"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."
"We cannot sell the product directly with an additional layer."
"Informatica MDM can improve the data catalog and data marketplace."
