Considered Both Products
HubSpot Data Hub
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
Improved analytics, well easier to read and show to team members, and using it to keep track of sales and the status of those sales. The simple grid tracks were easy to use and see where each client was in the sale pipeline.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
We selected HubSpot Operations Hub because we already used HubSpot as a CRM and we heard good feedback from our clients.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
This tool is, in my opinion, the best tool of its kind. Other apps like Zapier and Integromat are great at syncing information between sources but PieSync is the best when it comes to contact information synchronization. If I had to recommend one tool for this specific job, …
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
PieSync is much less confusing, and from what I remember, cheaper. But if you need a more robust solution to get more data from system to system, you will need to find something other than PieSync. Zapier can be confusing and complicated to setup. And as you get more and more …
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
Zapier has no two-way sync. The only advantage is the amount of external integration, but it is also developing very quickly and quite possibly will catch up.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
We needed a solution for syncing data two ways between software. Zapier only pushes data from one software to another with each zap so it was ultimately not an option for us. PieSync is the only tool I know of that provides two-way data syncs in such an easy and reliable way.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
PieSync is much more reliable than Zapier. With Zapier, our "zaps" consistently break and their notification system isn't the best at alerting you in real time.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
One of the top runners up for my sync needs. I needed something that would sync financial data in such a way I could generate thank you auto emails from Salesforce (if I remember correctly, it was some time ago). Also, I think that there were duplicate records created in …
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
I haven't used any other products similar to PieSync. PieSync is the first contact sync platform I've used and don't have a need to look elsewhere. It meets the needs for my business and I'm happy with the product. Would highly recommend it to anyone who needs to sync their …
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
I have not tried any other system, PieSync was just the right choice for me at first viewing.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
We haven't evaluated any alternatives that move existing data like PieSync. We have used Zapier, IFTTT, etc. but they are more suited for new information.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
Zapier can be built to achieve similar "syncing" results. But you're bound to lose data since Zapier is an automation software. Not a 2-way syncing software. PieSync is also much easier to set up, especially if you have a lot of custom fields that you like to map.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
PieSync is a continuous, real-time sync. Zapier does a lot of single step automations. They're peers, but behave very differently.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
Zapier is a great product but it only does a 1-way sync. I was most impressed with the 2-way sync capabilities of PieSync and the way in which I could use that to help with compliance with the data regulations in place and coming soon to Europe such as the GDPR.
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
I would say these two differ, both have some strong differentiators. Zapier offers the possibility of custom workflows pushing/retrieving data and parsing it for other actions (where the pricing can get quite high). PieSync wins in terms of keeping data fields in sync, cost …
Chose HubSpot Data Hub
While Zapier seems to have more connections, the 2 way integration through PieSync seemed easier. Additionally, Nimble (our CRM provider) has natively integrated PieSync into their application which gives us a higher level of confidence when it comes to support issues. Also, …

Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
There was not an evaluation period, since the product was already purchased by my company. I performed the installation and did the implementation.
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
It was the only product I used for Data extraction and it works very well that I did not think of another option.

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, …
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
IDQ has good integration with Informatica Powercenter and helps to clean and transform the data
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
Informatica Data Quality provides more accuracy, adaptability, compatibility, and is performance-oriented. Integration with other applications is easy to achieve.
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
Data Flux.
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
We choose Informatica Data Qualtiy mainly because we had so many internal Informatica Powercenter Resources as well as it was easy to use and Analyst is user friendly tool for the clients / end users for quick glance at data
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
SAP Info Steward. I have been using this tool in my past pharma organisation where the integration and target system was SAP. Though this integrates well but where far slower and had fewer quality checks than IDQ.
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
Talend ETL provides a more integrated Data Quality tool but the choice for IDQ was completed before I started and company is entrenched with Informatica
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
We looked at other products. It was an easy decision because we already had experience with Informatica PowerCenter.
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
Informatica data quality is better than all the products today except that competitors have better report formatting. For example: Global ID and Talend have better profiling reports for business users ( charting.. etc). Informatica is lacking in this area.
Chose Informatica Cloud Data Quality
It was selected by senior management.

Likelihood to Recommend
Great to use if you have a few marketing systems that need to "talk" to each other and keep each other updated. Perfect for small agencies, companies, or freelancers. I wouldn't recommend using PieSync if you have MANY marketing systems that need to be synched. You'd be better off simplifying the resources you use, then putting PieSync in place

We used Informatica Data Quality to measure the "Data Quality Score" of internal and external reports at my company. Business users set up data profiling and prepared detailed analysis documents for business analysts. and developers developed Data Quality Mapplets for other IT teams to import their Informatica Power Center repositories. Results are stored in a centralized data quality space and then reported and summarized to related business users in detailed ways. At the end of each project, we are now able to place a "Data Quality Score" watermark score on each report involved.

Pros
  • PieSync runs continually so there is little to no disruption and people always have access to the latest contact information for our clients and prospects.
  • PieSync runs efficiently in the background so there is little maintenance or attention that it needs, which is great.
  • PieSync does a great job of letting you decide how you want items to sync across platforms so you can customize to how your organization uses a particular software.

  • Watch the data real time- After creating the job the data quality engine checks and run the custom rules creating a navigation window at the bottom for review and accessing the data right away.
  • Character Set Mapping
  • Makes sense of our own data, which in turn gives us confidence that we can provide to the end users. IDQ helped us with erroneous data in accounting and HR for accurate and immaculate reports

Cons
  • Price. It can get expensive if you have to sync a lot of contacts. You are charged on each syn, not on the number of contacts.
  • While most major integrations are available, there are still many popular tools that they do not integrate with so check first.
  • More complex rules and multiple syncs require higher priced plans.
Read full review
  • 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.

The tool is very "set it and forget it" and reliable!

I gave a rating of 8 due to the fact that we use Informatica for both our data quality product and ETL product. Having both integrated makes it so much easier. Microsoft had a similar product of finding duplicates, but at the time it didn't seem mature enough. The usability also in IDQ was pretty easy to navigate and use.

Every time that I've had a question, PieSync has been very responsive. It is a reliable company with a great team that is devoted to helping their customers. I've been their customer for 2 years and I've never looked back. Support is an important reason why PieSync is my go-to app for this job.

Return on Investment
  • PieSync has saved me a lot of time. It is straightforward to learn and use and therefore the initial set up time is not great, but once set up you can more or less forget that it is there working away in the background.
  • My business is small and was already pretty streamlined with a CRM system etc. PieSync is likely to have a much greater ROI for a business that is less streamlined or is more complex to start with.

  • Integration with tools like PowerCenter helped faster delivery of product, and at the same time conversion
  • Reduce overall project cost due to bad data , bad quality, exceptions identified nearing go-live and post production
  • Employee efficiency is increased exponentially due to more automated, customized tool
