"The serverless capability and the packaging application of the solution are valuable."
"The program is stable and scalable."
"The product is scalable and excellent for enterprise-level organizations."
"The Mapping Designer allows for declarative ETL development (visual scripting) that leverages a wide array of different transformations."
"It has all the advantages of the Cloud in that you can use it without worrying about infrastructure, upkeep, or upgrades."
"WhereScape's deployment package is a fantastic feature. The application allows for selecting specific objects that you would like to deploy from one environment to another rather than deploying the entire database."
"The tool supports multiple target update methods."
"Support is absolutely excellent, efficient, and timely."
"I found the initial setup very easy."
"Naturally produces a way to easily debug your DW data solutions."
"RED generates comprehensive documentation and regenerates it as quickly as things changes, but it also provides impact documentation."
"Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish."
"The most valuable feature is the metadata generated code."
"The biggest challenge I see is the IDE's for the cloud and automization are different."
"The regions in which the data resides are still limited. This could be an issue in terms of the data residency laws of some of the countries. They should get more regions."
"A general improvement in icons and the virtual interface would be good."
"Its pricing model can be improved. The response time from technical support can also be improved."
"It would be helpful if there was a GenAI feature integrated into the system, especially regarding the data quality."
"With the solution, we had some issues, and we have every day, and we used to open a ticket. Sometimes, there are data issues and transformation issues."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration can improve by being more user-friendly. When you're working with the solution a lot of technical knowledge is required. It's not a solution that anyone can use properly, you need knowledge of what's happening at the back end, such as SQL. When you get stuck, you need to look into your logic. For other tools, such as Dell Boomi, anyone can use them."
"The error information provided is not informative, as compared to Power Center."
"No support for change data capture or delta detection - that must be custom coded ."
"Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved."
"It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully."
"Technical support isn't the best."
"Customization could be better."
"They need a more robust support center. It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box."
"Jobs cannot be deleted via the deployment package. When deploying from dev to QA or production, a job has to be retired. The job has to be manually removed from the target environment."
"The ability to execute SSIS projects within WhereScape would be nice because we have a lot of packages that are too cumbersome to recreate."
