More Actian Pervasive Data Integrator [EOL] Pros →

"The capability of the tool to scan and capture the metadata from a variety of sources is one of the capabilities that I find most useful. The central repository into which it is going to put that captured metadata is the best.""It can automatically connect or associate business terms with various options, providing flexibility beyond general capabilities.""We can scan anything.""The solution scales well.""The most valuable feature of Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog is it provides clients with a full view of the enterprise data assets. For example, how many data assets they have and who owns them.""The most valuable feature is its ability to extract metadata from various sources- be it an old SaaS application or the latest cloud application.""I rate the technical support a ten out of ten.""The way that the solution scans is very useful."

Cons
"I am not sure if there are various connectors available in the recent version of Pervasive DI to support the wide range of sources available (e.g., big data, cloud, EME)."

More Actian Pervasive Data Integrator [EOL] Cons →

"IEDC can improve the comparison of lineages.""Interoperability is one area where EDC has room for improvement. It was challenging when the faculty took over the data world and had specific vendors they wanted to use, and some were not particularly open platforms.""This solution is hard to set up and its interface is not user-friendly. It's also not as stable, and the technical support takes a lot of time to solve simple problems.""They have to improve their relationship discovery tool. They say that they have AI inside, but this AI did not automatically find relationships or suggested relationships between entities.""The solution is quite expensive.""The model is somewhat flexible. There are certain aspects of the model that are not as flexible as we would like. It doesn't do certain things to a great level of depth. So, in situations where we want to drill in to do something specific, we have to essentially copy that data into our own structures in order to add that additional layer of flexibility.""Currently, there are limitations in processing and the interface.""The UX and UI of the solution are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements can be made in the future."
