Informatica Cloud Data Integration vs. Stitch, a Qlik product

We use it a lot for importing data. We transform the incoming data to match the formatting of our CRM. We also match on existing records to avoid creating duplicates. Informatica handles all of this exceptionally well. Our users are system administrators. The tool is not well-suited for users who do not have a technical background

Stitch is very cheap and useful for small to medium size companies to ingest data from common apis/platforms in a quick and cheap way.

• Stitch is not good at replicating document stores like MongoDB to relational databases. To be fair, this is a difficult task. Stitch flattens the objects, but the result is unwieldy.
• Stitch cannot replicate the same source to multiple sinks, which is inconvenient if you want to replicate some of a datastore's tables to Redshift and others to Redshift Spectrum, for instance.

There is a learning curve with Informatica. It is not always intuitive to use. It is best suited for technical users such as system administrators

It is really easy to comply and understand its features.

Stitch from Talend is way more cost effective and has a business model that better aligns with our company. From what I can tell Stitch from Talend has a better customer support platform as well and has been very easy to work with when issues have come up. They also seem less pushy when it comes to sales.

• Really greatest than any other conventional application.

• Good ROI in terms of being able to monitor cost performance from Google, Facebook, etc.
• Easy to have Salesforce data and Intercom data for dashboards.
