Find out in this report how the two Metadata Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"We can scan anything."
"The solution scales well."
"I like EDC's self-service capabilities. You can put the catalog on the intranet inside the organization, so users can search for something. People in the research world have specialized systems, and you might find data from various places that sound similar."
"The capability of the tool to scan and capture the metadata from a variety of sources is one of the capabilities that I find most useful. The central repository into which it is going to put that captured metadata is the best."
"The metadata management of Informatica is great."
"The product seems stable enough."
"It can automatically connect or associate business terms with various options, providing flexibility beyond general capabilities."
"We used it pretty heavily in gathering data, which goes to our VPs. They are able to base their next revenue planning based on this metric. So, it has been invaluable."
"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."
"The ability to create a real-time data mark, using just one piece of software, is the best feature of this product."
"Data discovery is very simple."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"The solution is an affordable one."
"R and automation services."
"Spotfire is excellent for scientific applications, especially because of its integration with RNG."
"The model is somewhat flexible. There are certain aspects of the model that are not as flexible as we would like. It doesn't do certain things to a great level of depth. So, in situations where we want to drill in to do something specific, we have to essentially copy that data into our own structures in order to add that additional layer of flexibility."
"Currently, there are limitations in processing and the interface."
"This solution is hard to set up and its interface is not user-friendly. It's also not as stable, and the technical support takes a lot of time to solve simple problems."
"Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog could improve by having a much better user interface. It is not user-friendly."
"It is not easy to set up and configure the tool."
"IEDC can improve the comparison of lineages."
"They have to improve their relationship discovery tool. They say that they have AI inside, but this AI did not automatically find relationships or suggested relationships between entities."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."
"The way TIBCO Spotfire is designed, in my opinion, is the reason why it lags a bit, especially compared to other BI tools like Qlik."
"One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support."
"I would like more easy-to-implement analytical algorithms. At the moment they include things like forecasts and regressions. They need to add a lot more of these types of things to the product because not everyone is a data scientist."
"The data compression has room for improvement."
"The design of the UI could be improved."
"The initial setup of TIBCO Spotfire is in the middle range of difficulty. The initial setup of Power BI is easier."
"The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved."
