Agreement Express vs. Informatica Cloud Data Quality

Agreement express is very well suited in places for multinational companies whose revenues are peaking and there are strong chances of encountering fraud along the way. While also being able to monitor each client with their overall scores and able to check for red flags. The Quickest KYCs and screenings come hand in hand with multinational companies for sure.

• The matching algorithms in IDQ are very powerful if you understand the different types that they offer (e.g., Hamming Distance, Jaro, Bigram, etc..). We had to play around with it to see which best suit our own needs of identifying and eliminating duplicate customers. Setting up the whole process (e.g., creating the KeyGenerator Transformation, setting up the matching threshold, etc..) can be somewhat time consuming and a challenge if you don't first standardize your data.
• The integration with PowerCenter is great if you have both. You can either import your mappings directly to PowerCenter or to an XML file. The only downside is that some of the transformations are unique to IDQ, so you are not really able to edit them once in PowerCenter.
• The standardizer transformation was key in helping us standardize our customer data (e.g., names, addresses, etc..). It was helpful due to having create a reference table containing the standardized value and the associated unstandardized values. What was great was that if you used Informatica Analyst, a business analyst could login and correct any of the values.

• Very recently they launched premium services of the application that seems overpriced but that won't be any bigger issue
• I was not quite happy with the support team in overall but friendly team and coordinates well.
• having control of the clients entire digital system seemed a bit too much but inorder to determine the score it becomes necessary.

• Several partnerships diminishing the value of technologies
• Unable to get list of objects from Repository (like sources & targets) that don't have any dependency
• Scheduling: The built-in scheduling tool has many constraints such as handling Unix/VB scripts etc. Most enterprises use third party tools for this.

As pointed out earlier, due all the robust features IDQ has, our use f the product is successful and stable. IDQ is being used in multiple sources (from CRM application and in batch mode). As this is an iterative process, we are looking to improve our system efficiency using IDQ.

Easy to use not only for developers but also business users

The one thing I loved about the agreement express over AuditGenius was the organization of loans to be audited, it is very organised as per the client and his portfolio and shows up flags while the AuditGenius has the list and seems very odd. But also in customer usage, I found many of my business partners using agreement express for the quick onboarding and also for ROI which indeed gave me a strong feeling about the application.

IDQ is used by a department at my organisation to ensure and enhance the data quality.
The usage was started with address standardization and now it had been brought to altogether a next level of quality check where it fixes duplicates, junk characters, standardize the names, streets, product descriptions.
In the past we had issues mainly with duplicate customers and products and this were affecting the sales projection and estimates.

Scalability works as expected and it is truly an enterprise system.
