Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"There are not really many areas of the product that need improvement because the product stays up-to-date with data management needs.""When users update their information on one product, the data is sent to a database. My approach was to maintain a master data record, ensuring that each platform loads the latest updated record. Instead of having three separate records, the system keeps one master data record, storing the historical records for reference.""The advantage is that the matching engine is very good, so that's why customers generally prefer it. From the inbuilt data model perspective, IBM MDM is good.""The features that are most valuable are the governance, the end-profiling and the ETL which allows you to see the metadata repositories."

"The process of categorizing data, creating glossaries, and generating metadata is streamlined and less time-consuming.""The product is able to utilize the SQL server toolkit and it has tight integration with the SQL server.""We really like the matching and merging features."

Cons
"The product is really only created for large organizations.""IBM InfoSphere MDM's UI is complicated. It also needs to improve its on-prem configuration.""The tool is difficult to understand from a customer perspective and for developers.""We also want better cloud integration, so we could do things in the cloud if we needed to. This would be a good feature to add in a future release."

More IBM InfoSphere MDM Cons →

"The way training is laid out in their Profisee University, makes it really, really hard to find what you need fast.""When we updated to version 7.1, there were some workflow issues.""A more convenient approach would involve integrating all the pre-existing elements into Profisee itself."
