Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Microsoft, TIBCO and others in Master Data Management (MDM) Software."One good feature is that SAS MDM comes bundled with the entire stack so we are in a position to place it with the client. So when a client wants an analytics tool plus BI, and they want to bring in other elements, that is when we look to MDM, because it is a single vendor."
"The most valuable features of TIBCO EBX are the workflow and interface."
"The API and the data model are very valuable features."
"The tool's UI is good and easy to understand."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The product is extremely flexible."
"The most valuable features of TIBCO EBX are that is a complete tool and everything can be done inside, including data governance. We are able to model everything according to the needs of the company. If the company needs five people to agree to a change in data, they can do it with TIBCO EBX. They can model it with any particular rules. Additionally, there is dynamic data modeling, simple workflows using the GUI that comes from the server."
"The data modeling is very good."
"This solution allows the user to have complete control, and is 100% customizable."
"The initial setup was slightly complex. We did face a couple of issues such as the SAML integration not being very smooth. And linking communication with the metadata server was a bit of a challenge. Eventually, we were able to configure it properly."
"TIBCO EBX could improve by making the building of rules less complex and the repository is not robust."
"Currently, users can't use Plain SQL queries in TIBCO EBX."
"The product does not scale well horizontally. We find the scalability to be quite inferior to other options."
"The documentation needs improvement."
"We would like to see the community an documentation for this solution be developed. At present there is very little tutorial documentation available, and limited community support for issues with the product."
"Everything is updated through forms, and working with UI web forms. It's more record-based processing. It is not mass-based processing. This is one of the things that are not good for TIBCO EBX. Another problem is we cannot join tables and prepare a view where the tables are joined. Someone can code it but it is not a feature of the solution without code. You have to take data from a table, combine it with data from another table and then present it. This could be done better."
"The design should be easier and more visual."
"In terms of improvements that this solution needs, it should support big data."
