Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The user interface and user experience are perfectly all right."
"It is easy to integrate the solution with other tools."
"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."
"This product is easy to install and it can be done in a few hours."
"The product’s flexibility is valuable."
"The agentless RCDC enablement through PowerExchange is a great idea and has worked very well so far."
"The solution can connect to different systems i.e. mainframe, IMS or AS/400 Legacy Systems."
"The main benefit of PowerExchange is its native real-time capabilities. Competing tools are counting on third-party packages or Oracle to offer real-time capabilities. However, Informatica has a native ability to scan the data on the file system level and capture the changes almost instantly when I push it to the consumers. The solution has a powerful built-in replication engine."
"The customer service executives are very responsive."
"It was mostly easy to set up the product."
"In my opinion, the most valuable aspect of this solution is its extensive range of adaptors and connectors. This feature holds significant importance and provides great value to users."
"It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."
"The productivity is the most valuable feature. It is very easy to write remediations."
"The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone."
"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable."
"The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable."
"Informatica is very expensive in all aspects, so the pricing is something that could be improved."
"The product's high costs can be an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Pushdown optimization could be improved."
"The solution needs better integration with other tools."
"The major shortcoming of PowerExchange is high availability and failover. None of the versions we've used to date have had the out-of-the-box ability to enable failover and high-availability requirements. This is a significant challenge and risk."
"The one place where it could be improved is definitely pricing. That's a very big problem. It depends product to product, but pricing is an issue."
"The solution could be made more user-friendly. The configurations are also quite difficult."
"Integration with the largest number of databases and other systems would be important."
"The integration capabilities need to be improved."
"There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced."
"The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality."
"One of the reasons that we are looking for a replacement is their way of defining integration. The language of the XML structures that I use to describe the integrations are not that standard, and it's not easy to find people who are familiar with this approach."
"The customization can be a bit difficult."
"I would like to see better documentation for the open-source version."
"I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."
"If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me."
