"I would recommend that others considering the solution go ahead and use it for any batch and high volume loads with complex transactions."
"The setup is straightforward."
"PowerCenter performs well during data transformation and optimization."
"It works with any multi-databases, so it works with Sybase, SQL Server. Also, the performance is really good and it is easy to use."
"I like the automated scheduling feature."
"Good interface, reasonable documentation."
"It is an excellent ETL tool."
"Technical support, and their approach is good. They have a support portal and support tickets. If you open a ticket it has multiple levels of severity from level one to very high or critical."
"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)."
"Informatica PowerCenter could improve on the documentation for the implementation. The documents provided are not very good for a new user."
"Its licensing can be improved. It should be features-wise and not bundle-wise. A bundle will definitely be costly. In addition, we might use one or two features. That's why the pricing model should be based on the features. The model should be flexible enough based on the features. Their support should also be more responsive to premium customers."
"Compared to solutions offering similar functionalities, Informatica PowerCenter is not very flexible regarding customized integrations."
"Requires an established data center because there is no option for software as a service."
"In the future, I would like to see Informatica PowerCenter integrate a more powerful dashboard."
"The real-time database connectivity when getting the real-time data using the VPN is an area that needs improvement."
"The solution's commercial cost is very high. Other open-source tools can do the tool's functions for free. The world is moving to the cloud, but the solution hasn't updated its drivers. I presume that its downfall will start soon. The tool is trying to cross-sell or upsell without helping customers derive benefits from the existing products. They have multiple tools and licenses. It is better to bring the smaller tools in one umbrella."
"We had stability issues, mostly with JVM size."
