We performed a comparison between Informatica MDM and TIBCO EBX based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Master Data Management (MDM) Solutions solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of Informatica MDM is hierarchy management. It's not something that's typically available and effective within ERPs."
"The tool manually checks on applying business rules and helps to implement them."
"MDM doesn't require a separate IDQ."
"The valuable feature is that we can automate the integration part...It is a stable solution."
"It comes with lot of features and is a one-stop-shop solution for integration, data modeling, and data governance. Everything can be built under one particular umbrella. If any issues come up, then there won't be any blame game saying that it could be an integration issue or an MDM hub issue because it's wholly owned by Informatica. That's the biggest advantage of Informatica MDM over that of any other tools that are available on the market."
"New tools are coming out that will enable you to achieve 90 percent of use cases with the out-of-the-box configuration, but I would like to keep Informatica tight here. Otherwise, you need a Java user edit course and other things to do multiple things that you cannot configure out of the box. They have to go through those use cases to do something if those can also be configured rather than coded."
"It has flexibility in extending the data model."
"It has improved our organization because it has made our data more reliable. Data is the most important asset these days, and in order to trust your data, you need these tools to make sure that your data is clean and reliable."
"The data modeling is very good."
"The data quality is very good."
"The product is extremely flexible."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The API and the data model are very valuable features."
"There are a lot of possible use cases for this Master Data Management tool."
"This solution allows the user to have complete control, and is 100% customizable."
"The tool's UI is good and easy to understand."
"The cost of Informatica MDM is expensive and has room for improvement."
"The configurations could be better. It is a bit confusing because we must develop two tools when building a data model in Informatica MDM. Even though Informatica MDM is a single tool, we have our hub console plus the provisioning tool within that. Whatever data model we are building in the hub console, we have to develop it in the provisioning tool again. It is double the work to create a data model. We are also using external calls or the Java custom plans functions. This can be both positive and negative. Since MDM as a client does not support any complex validation, we have to depend on the external call or a Java call. Every time we deployed, the entire solution was impacted if something went wrong."
"Data integration should be improved."
"The UI is terrible and not user-friendly."
"I think they should work really hard on UI."
"The integration could be a bit better. The process is something new."
"The advertising makes promises about data analytics that it does not keep."
"The configuration process is pretty lengthy and challenging and could be made easier to understand."
"The initial setup can be a bit complex."
"The documentation needs improvement."
"TIBCO EBX could improve by making the building of rules less complex and the repository is not robust."
"Everything is updated through forms, and working with UI web forms. It's more record-based processing. It is not mass-based processing. This is one of the things that are not good for TIBCO EBX. Another problem is we cannot join tables and prepare a view where the tables are joined. Someone can code it but it is not a feature of the solution without code. You have to take data from a table, combine it with data from another table and then present it. This could be done better."
"The tool has to improve mapping and workflow. It should be made more robust."
"The support isn't great and takes too long. And the pricing can be improved."
"Currently, users can't use Plain SQL queries in TIBCO EBX."
"The design should be easier and more visual."
