Provides inbuilt data model and good matching engine

It's a tough tool for developers. Right now in the market, I think Informatica MDM is number one and is used a lot. IBM MDM was developed by some other company and IBM developed it more. There are definitely some flaws. The tool is difficult to understand from a customer perspective and for developers. Generally, customers can understand Informatica MDM and its functionality easily. If a developer is facing issues with IBM MDM, then a customer will definitely not understand most of the functionality. That is the main concern. IBM is introducing some Next-Gen MDM, where they are using a lot of current technologies and machine learning. Most of the problems we may be facing right now are probably solved in that version.

Effective service consolidation, new features frequent added, and beneficial centralized management

My advice to others would be IBM Master Data Management on Cloud should be considered as one of the solutions in comparison with other cloud providers in that area. Compare other solutions, such as Azure or AWS Endure data management. Based on some of the projects that we have had most customers have been extremely satisfied, I rate IBM Master Data Management on Cloud a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

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

"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."

"There are not really many areas of the product that need improvement because the product stays up-to-date with data management needs."

"IBM Master Data Management on Cloud has been valuable because it has helped in the consolidation of services and lots of the cost of administering and centralizing all the management and automation. Additionally, new features are frequently added."

Cons

"The product is really only created for large organizations."

"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 tool is difficult to understand from a customer perspective and for developers."

"IBM InfoSphere MDM's UI is complicated. It also needs to improve its on-prem configuration."

"The solution is continually being improved by adding features. They should continue to improve the solution in the future."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It may be costly for small organizations but adds value for large organizations with demanding workflows."
