We are able to model everything according to the needs of the company. If the company needs five people to agree to a change in data, they can do it with TIBCO EBX. They can model it with any particular rules. Additionally, there is dynamic data modeling, simple workflows using the GUI that comes from the server."

"The cost of Informatica MDM is expensive and has room for improvement."
"Data integration should be improved."
"Needs to implement the new workflow with simple steps and a quick visualization with a 360 view of the data."
"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."
"The product could be improved in the area of architecture and technology. All the parts are old."
"Informatica MDM could be improved by adding drag and drop options, business data insights, and visualization reporting."

"Overall, they just a little bit more flexibility in terms of assigning roles or adding new roles. We have a longer approval process, so we need to break it down into more roles than what is typically available and we need to hard-code it."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"It does not ensure data matches after system upgrades."
"The user interface is not user-friendly."
"The support isn't great and takes too long. And the pricing can be improved."
"The tool has to improve mapping and workflow. It should be made more robust."
"The design should be easier and more visual."
"Currently, users can't use Plain SQL queries in TIBCO EBX."
"The documentation needs improvement."
"We would like to see the community an documentation for this solution be developed. At present there is very little tutorial documentation available, and limited community support for issues with the product."
"TIBCO EBX could improve by making the building of rules less complex and the repository is not robust."
"The product does not scale well horizontally. We find the scalability to be quite inferior to other options."
