    Best suited for scenarios involving detailed analysis of customer data and demographics. Allows for complex investigation of customer and audience details. Less well suited for scenarios involving simultaneous collaboration on analysis. This product is not the best for collaboration and is better suited for individual work and individual forms of analysis.

    Pros
    Informatica
    • 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.

    • I just like the manner it handles the analytical rationalization of giving a standing and updates of the inner and outside beliefs of Marketing analysis.
    • It facilitates me apprehend clients' desires and offers advice on a way to fulfill their desires.
    • When I am making plans and instinctually recognise what purchasers are going to purchase, I depend upon their real-time records to validate my assumptions and tell our media buys.
    • Automatic rewards with the media Connections. The availability of records and the alternatives to make our customer's picks understandable.

    Cons
    Informatica
    • 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.

    • More segments need to be created as often as possible
    • Sometimes it is hard to optimize these segments when the CTR is low - segments make it difficult to pull out zones/sites that are dragging down the CTR because they are so narrowly targeted.

    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.

    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.
