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 technical support services are good."
"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."
"One of the most valuable features for us is the metadata repository because it can easily understand the lineage of first target mapping. My company and I also find Informatica really easy to use—when a consultant joins our company, in just a few days to a few weeks, they can understand how to use it—so we prefer to use this ETL tool."
"Good interface, reasonable documentation."
"I would recommend that others considering the solution go ahead and use it for any batch and high volume loads with complex transactions."
"It's a complete package, which is why we use this solution."
"The number of docs has been reduced drastically, which is very good."
"The technical support for Informatica PowerCenter is good."
"The most valuable features of Informatica PowerCenter are the ease of use, and development, and is simple to find resources."
"Reusable definition of data sources and the out-of-the-box availability of a large number maplets for common transformation functions."
"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 initial setup was not very straightforward. Not complex, but not very simple either."
"PowerCenter could integrate better with cloud applications. We had to do a lot of configuration work using API integrations to connect with cloud applications. Informatica Cloud Data Integration has a generic connector that you can use directly, so it's much easier."
"The performance of Informatica PowerCenter could improve."
"What I didn't like about it is that the platform itself is not great at distributed processing. When you need high parallel processing, it has some inherent issues. We had to use Java transformation, and it did not go very well. I have heard that it is going to the cloud, but we haven't tried that."
"We had stability issues, mostly with JVM size."
"Requires an established data center because there is no option for software as a service."
"While on-premises is a better product, we really need to move to the cloud and need the cloud to be as robust as this product."
"It should be more cloud-centric than on-prem-centric."
"I would like to see an improvement in the digital adoption."
