Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is easy to integrate the solution with other tools.""The product's initial setup phase was not complex. The tool is easy to install onto any of the servers, and you can integrate it.""The scalability is excellent.""The product’s flexibility is valuable.""It is a scalable and versatile solution.""The solution can connect to different systems i.e. mainframe, IMS or AS/400 Legacy Systems.""Mainstream integration and real-time integration are the best features.""Overall, it's a good tool. It's currently number one on the market. It pretty much has all the necessary capabilities to pull the incremental data from the source system, technically speaking."

"It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data.""The Cloud Console for monitoring and troubleshooting data operations.""Jitterbit provides the ability to quickly map data between files and databases.""The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors).""We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate.""Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features.""It runs like an appliance and has tremendous throughput.""Jitterbit handles the most lines of data in a .csv and loads the quickest of any data loader I have tried."

Cons
"Integration with the largest number of databases and other systems would be important.""The product is not suitable for application integration.""Pushdown optimization could be improved.""V10.2 is very stable, but we are still struggling to make V10.5 stable. We found services that were down, and PowerExchange stopped working.""Informatica is very expensive in all aspects, so the pricing is something that could be improved.""Apache Spark has a machine learning algorithm, an area where Informatica PowerExchange lacks.""They should make it quick and easy for use of citizen data integration or for people or integrators developing at the customer side. They could be development teams within the business team. For them, the product owners can consider making it a little bit more seamless and a little bit more democratized.""Real-time has not been enhanced that much over the past few years. There has not been as many features added like they did before."

More Informatica PowerExchange Cons →

"The initial setup can be a little bit difficult.""I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot.""Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs.""In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations.""Its API management capabilities need improvement.""I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security.""Sometimes additional connectors are needed.""There were some bugs in the product. For example if you run a delete query and test, it deletes the actual data."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "An annual package license fee is required."
  • "The cost of PowerExchange is reasonable. It does not rely on complicated formulas or unrealistic equations. The pricing model is straightforward. There is one component, and real-time integration is included. Some other solutions require purchasing additional modules or third-party plugins for this capability."
  • "It's expensive. In fact, nobody would buy any product of Informatica if the price was the only consideration. It costs money, and it doesn't come cheap, but it provides value for money in many ways."
  • "There is a need to pay towards the licensing cost of the product. It is an expensive product."
  • "Many users don't prefer to use the product, considering the high costs attached to the licensing part of the solution."
  • "The product is not very expensive."
