Cons
"They could focus more on marketing the product. The current marketing strategy is not working.""Although DQA can fetch data from most of the commonly used data sources, it has limited modifiers to get data, meaning that the number of technologies from which the data can be acquired is limited. For example, DQA does not support fetching data from Twitter or Facebook. Many competitors have this feature."

"The tool needs to provide resizable forms/windows like all other SSIS windows. Vendor claims its an SSIS limitation however all SSIS components are resizable so that isn't true. This is just an annoyance but needless.""To continually update the database with NAICS codes on businesses.""Pricing is based on tiers, with each tier capped at a specified number of records processed. Once you go over the cap at one tier, you are automatically bumped to the next tier. However, they seem to count failed batch processes so it’s good to keep track of the number of records sent. They’ll fix the count when notified, but their system fails to detect actual successful processes versus failed processes.""MatchUp seems to be single threaded, and limits the amount of data that can be processed automatically.""It would be nice if it also had a user interface, as it did in years past.""The custom software solution we still use in-house makes Excel a lot slower than usual.""It really hasn't given us a phone number for the owner of the property, and that's one thing I'd really like to be getting. Either a phone number or email.""Needs better email append coverage (but every vendor struggles with this)."
