What do you like best about Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog?

Integration with Informatica's own stack is good, as one may expect, but Integration with other tools is also very comprehensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Informatica Enterprise Data Catalog?

Crashes often, resulting in prolonged downtimes. Searching the catalog can be slow even if cluster recommendations comply with Informatica's guidelines. Scanner jobs often fail even with container sizes specified as per Informatica's recommendations. The product needs more work to bring it to a more polished state. However, the potential is huge specially in cases where Informatica's other toolds are in use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
