Recent shifts at Informatica have sparked real questions for business and IT leaders: What happens to on-prem support? Will pricing change? Is a forced move to the cloud inevitable?

In times of uncertainty, control matters more than ever. And nowhere is that more important than with the true cost of your data platform.

This is where Pentaho stands apart.

Know Your Costs. Trust Your Future.

Pentaho gives you clarity—not just in your data, but in your pricing. Unlike platforms that require custom quotes, license gymnastics, or vague “cloud transition” fees, Pentaho’s pricing is:

  • Transparent – No hidden costs. No surprise hikes.
  • Predictable – Buy only what you need—modular, scalable, and aligned to your roadmap.
  • Efficient – Simplify your stack with one integrated platform instead of multiple point solutions.

Why Pentaho Wins on TCO

When it comes to Total Cost of Ownership, Pentaho doesn’t just compete—it leads.

  • Lower Upfront Investment – Pentaho’s intuitive, no-code platform reduces the need for costly implementation resources or extensive training.
  • Reduced Maintenance Overhead – With fewer moving parts and better integration across tools, your teams spend less time maintaining and more time moving forward.
  • Built-in Flexibility – Hybrid-ready architecture means you deploy on your terms—on-prem, cloud, or both. No forced migrations. No rip-and-replace costs.
  • Unified Licensing – Get data integration, analytics, cataloging, optimizing, and quality—all under one umbrella. One platform, one contract, one clear cost.

Designed for Simplicity. Built for Stability.

While other platforms pivot, rebrand, or realign, Pentaho stays focused. We deliver a data platform designed to make complexity manageable and value more accessible.

You don’t have to choose between power and simplicity. You don’t have to overpay for uncertainty.

With Pentaho:
  • Get to insights faster
  • Streamline operations with fewer tools
  • Control your budget—and your future

Data chaos is expensive. Smart simplicity isn’t.

If you’re evaluating Informatica—or re-evaluating it—now is the time to compare the real cost of staying versus the value of switching.

Pentaho gives you the confidence to move forward—with clarity, control, and a lower TCO.
