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.""The features that are most valuable are the governance, the end-profiling and the ETL which allows you to see the metadata repositories.""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.""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."

"It's a stable solution. I have no complaints.""I like their matching feature, and the survivorship rules are very strong. I also like their out-of-box reports, data quality dashboards, and more. Those are also very handy and helpful. Internally, I like the kind of configurations that we can create, validations, and enhancements. Those configurations are pretty straightforward and useful. It's a user-friendly tool that is very cool.""Has a good user interface and the ability to update large sets of products quickly."

Cons
"IBM InfoSphere MDM's UI is complicated. It also needs to improve its on-prem configuration.""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.""The product is really only created for large organizations.""The tool is difficult to understand from a customer perspective and for developers."

More IBM InfoSphere MDM Cons →

"The solution does not have a good match and search capability.""Integration could be better. Riversand is majorly focusing on only the MDM hub part. They don't have their own integration platform. We have to rely on a third-party integration partner. They say this is the format, and it's the client's responsibility to bring the data into their required format. They have to have an integration partner and develop their integration capabilities. It's not so flexible to read any data format or system, for example, SAP. They don't have a connector.""The ability to create bespoke workflows could be improved."
