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 Mapping Configuration and PowerCenter wizards are valuable. We use them to run our business logic."
"Informatica is good for integrating data and cloud applications. We have connectors for integrating cloud applications like Salesforce. You can quickly integrate anything with an exposed API or a REST API. The industry is increasingly shifting to the cloud, so we need more products that can connect to cloud-based applications. The integration is seamless and works in real time. It's also secure because you don't need to expose databases or tables."
"The solution has the best feature for parameterization."
"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."
"The features I find most valuable is the synchronization, verification, functionalities and all the data integration features."
"The support is very good."
"The serverless capability and the packaging application of the solution are valuable."
"The solution is straightforward."
"The initial setup is quite easy because the solution has a good interface through which the configuration, mapping, and so on can be done."
"The product’s ability to seamlessly translate protocols is great."
"I have found several things most valuable, including its very quick implementation that you can use a lot of out of the box templates, and lastly that it is a very mature product, especially in hybrid integration."
"Whenever we need some support in our local language, we get it easily. They also have an office in Germany and if a person is unable to contact them by phone, they can go to the office in person."
"Mule Anypoint Platform is our preferred platform for integration."
"MuleSoft Anypoint Platform's most valuable features are its observability and stability."
"This is a good platform for designing, flowing out APIs, and then doing API-based integrations."
"The most valuable features of the Mule Anypoint Platform are the Flex Gateway, API management, easy-to-use, and connectors. Additionally, they are coming out with improvements to the solution when required."
"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."
"Its pricing model can be improved. The response time from technical support can also be improved."
"It could be improved by including a buffer that saves data when there is a connectivity issue."
"The biggest challenge I see is the IDE's for the cloud and automization are different."
"Certain applications are not being synced with the ION."
"I have received feedback from certain teams and there is a steep learning curve to use this solution."
"User/group administration could use improvement."
"While my company operates on the cloud, we have seen that Informatica Cloud Data Integration has some performance issues causing it to lag."
"Adding connectors for new upcoming applications would add extra value to this product."
"An on-premise setup requires special skills and you need a lot of professional services."
"It should give better control over account management."
"Pricing is one aspect of the solution that is troublesome. It's too expensive for smaller organizations."
"It would be better if we had a clearer view of the solution's future releases."
"The initial setup should be made easy and the documentation should have some guidance."
"The inclusion of GenAI in the tool can be good since it is an area that is currently unavailable in the solution."
"It has different types of subscriptions. For platinum or lower subscriptions, there are not too many things that can be done. We don't see many features. They should release a basic version that has logging and monitoring features. These features should come with Mule Anypoint Platform for free instead of making customers pay separately for these features. Its dashboard can be improved to have a lot of charts so that it is easy to visualize information. The utilization part can be improved. The dashboard is good currently, but it can be better. Other solutions like Elastic have a good dashboard, and they allow you to administer the product from the UI. Currently, for RTF, there is a different dashboard or utility. It would be good to include the same utility in the cloud solution. It would be good if there is a centralized repository that includes the links to the information about various troubleshooting issues. The documentation is there currently, and it is good, but the troubleshooting information is too scattered. We have to go to different links to find troubleshooting information. This kind of centralized repository would be helpful for new customers who are implementing this solution. It will be helpful to see different kinds of issues that can occur."
