Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Informatica, Oracle and others in Data Integration."Performance and flexibility-wise, they're very user-friendly."
"The MDM solution is capable of integrating multiple systems, so it helped us to solve the purpose of centralizing the depository as well as the standardization of mass data. It takes away all the ambiguity around data integrity issues or all the process challenges which happen when every stage of a process uses a different source as master data."
"The technical support services are good."
"The product seems stable enough."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to extract metadata from various sources- be it an old SaaS application or the latest cloud application."
"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."
"The way that the solution scans is very useful."
"The solution scales well."
"I like EDC's self-service capabilities. You can put the catalog on the intranet inside the organization, so users can search for something. People in the research world have specialized systems, and you might find data from various places that sound similar."
"The metadata management of Informatica is great."
"It can automatically connect or associate business terms with various options, providing flexibility beyond general capabilities."
"The initial setup was not very straightforward. Not complex, but not very simple either."
"They could provide more robust performance for data integration processes. It would help in improving the data quality more efficiently."
"When it comes to UI look and feel and user experience, Informatica is not as good as other solutions."
"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."
"The scalability is tough."
"It is more complicated to extract data using the product compared to Visio. The system could display the details on the screen."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog could improve by having a much better user interface. It is not user-friendly."
"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."
"The UX and UI of the solution are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements can be made in the future."
"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."
