Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Our primary use case is for us to inspect the results from the product and material, and for releasing or leaving the status of the product.""We work with API standards or norms for internal applications, so it's essential for SSE to have tests and pass those tests according to the criteria, which makes SAP Data Quality Management very important for our products."

More SAP Data Quality Management Pros →

"The Data Cleansing and the scorecard dashboard are very valuable. Additionally, the financial aspect of SAP Information Steward is very good. When a rule is incorrect then it will show how much is it costing the business. These features are very valuable.""The most valuable features are data quality insight, metadata management, and metadata dictionary.""The solution is very fast.""Data insight is the most valuable feature.""Initial setup was straightforward.""The scorecard will highlight the percentage of good data and ensure the user can feel confident that the data is accurate within predetermined limits.""Ability to collect information, monitor user access and to plan storage capacity.""The data profiling was excellent, as was the ease of generating the dashboards."

Cons
"I would like for them to develop a feature to able to record all of our inspections; so all the data can go through SAP. It's not user-friendly or easy to get further analysis, so we mostly skip this step.""SAP Data Quality Management would be better if it directly integrates with the ME system. Right now, the company has a lot of machines on the shop floor working as a standalone, so you have to use all methods to ensure that the data interface appears on the ME system and that SAP Data Quality Management records the QM results. It would be much easier if the ME system could be integrated directly with SAP Data Quality Management."

"The support team is not very responsive.""The user experience of metapedia could be improved.""Performance could be improved.""SAP Information Steward could be improved by offering a cloud version of the product.""Needs to be more powerful on rules.""A problem with the solution is that it does not allow us to review the results of Information Stewards for other analogies.""The solution could improve by incorporating other applications, such as Power BI to show more visualization. More interaction with other solutions would be a good benefit.""We'd like to see some manipulation techniques included in SAP Information Steward."
