Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We were hoping to use this as our data management solution. We wanted something modern and robust however in my opinion this is not what we found when using this product.

Pros

  • Some UI is easily used
  • Configuration Migration
  • Works well if other informatica products

Cons

  • Some of the UI seems outdated
  • Overall feels rather basic
  • Clunky system

Likelihood to Recommend

If you just need something basic, this could do well for you however once you start finding that you have more needs, the issues start to show. In my opinion the UI needs help and that alone is a problem for me as it makes the whole system feel and behave poorly.

Not quite the magic bullet, but close.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It exposes API in both SOAP and REST which makes the job on our end so much easier. By being able to maintain the database in an appropriate structure, we're also able to compare month over month and year over year. Informatica solves a number of problems that others can't with their MDM took, including using the best ETL tool on the market and integrating the results into their EDC data catalog for end-to-end MDM.

Pros

  • MDM Data Management.
  • Easily maintainable database structure.
  • Work well with other informatica tech stack.

Cons

  • Visualization
  • Ease of use - there is a learning curve.
  • Integrations of systems having to be downstream.

Likelihood to Recommend

We have used Informatica MDM since the beginning of our project, and I can tell you from my experience it is one of the best MDM tools out there in the market. Not only does it store your master data which comes from different sources, but also it performs data cleansing also on inconsistent data. And one of the most highlighted features is its core component, that’s the hub console, not only useful for developers but for data stewards also with an easy-to-use UI and feature-leveraged functionality. This software is packed with lots of features, so let me highlight a few of them here: 1) Data insertion feature, you can either load data in batches or in real-time. 2) We can not only task manual but also we can automate the many tasks from the batch group. 3) SIF API is the most useful feature when it comes to connecting with middleware software or external applications.

Software of Meta era

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In an era, to manage the load of data collected from clients and other sources. Managing this data manually has been tedious and time-consuming. My team uses Informatica to save on cost & time for the management of data collected in our cloud. We use it to merge and track reference IDs collected from files and tags. Similarly, we use it as a relationship roadmap within the team.

Pros

  • Manage and track reference data of files (i.e. tags, title, comments, date of creation, file size, & more).
  • Talmbout drawing lineage between system; informatica does it neat!
  • It enables easy access to checking and editing mappings
  • It has a great tone of complementing other stacks well.
  • Stores excellently: Master data from different sources
  • Has Hub console useful for both developers & data stewards.

Cons

  • Complex installation process
  • Scanty manual on modification
  • Not suitable for automated single-task management for end users
  • Initialization is time consuming
  • Improved visualization

Likelihood to Recommend

From use, Informatica MDM is the appropriate software for mid-to-large-sized companies. They will find the software efficient & effective when: they need to expose API in both SOAP & REST, to facilitate easy operation of users on the application. Similarly, it features the ability to master data, implement rules, and make changes to the system to suit the end user. It follows that, In a meta era like now, Informatica is a solid metadata management tool. Very good software is not compatible with all company sizes, and so is the case of Informatica. It is not suitable for small-size companies that do not log large data, as they'd not maximize the potential of the software.

Informatica Cloud MDM

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The client I was working was living and breathing in Salesforce. Thus came Informatica Cloud MDM to secure the consolidation of accounts within Salesforce and other external source systems. The primary purpose was to have a defined linkage between source systems i.e. native Salesforce and other external source systems to produce a single version of record with trusted and standardized quality of data. This can help the organization define their metrics and thereby their goals in reaching a sales target.

Pros

  • If you live and breath in Salesforce it's one of the best packages which can be used. The maintenance of a multiple source system hierarchy is one the coolest features.
  • Real time syncing from Native Salesforce to MDM stage area is achievable and is one of the most vital features.
  • The data can be standardized and cleaned. It helps creating the linage between data and can be represented easily.

Cons

  • Certainly one place which it lacks is multiple match rules for one entity. We can live on one match rule for an entity.
  • Too many configurations
  • If possible unmerging records functionality at least for native Salesforce

Likelihood to Recommend

As I have mentioned if an organization lives and breaths in the Salesforce.com platform this is one of the best packages to have for creating golden records. If the organizations are less dependent on Salesforce, I don't see much use of Informatica cloud MDM.
