Overall Satisfaction with Informatica MDM

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.

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.
