Informatica Data Quality provides all projects and initiatives with clean, high-quality data regardless of size, data format, platform, or technology. Less appropriate in scheduling IDQ jobs where needs to rely on third party tool. Key significance in selection process is about the efficiency of usage of tool in long term with reasonable over-head cost.
