A user-friendly data management software with a valuable matching feature
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.
Abhijit Misra - PeerSpot reviewer
Integrates with other third-party solutions, but Bill of materials (BOM) creation needs to be enhanced
We are trying to get the cloud solution of SAP Master Data Governance for multiple clients, which requires more improvement. Bill of materials (BOM) creation in manufacturing needs to be enhanced in SAP Master Data Governance. Clients have also suggested improvements in managing a hierarchy and ensuring that you maintain and work on the hierarchy side.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"It's a stable solution. I have no complaints."
"Has a good user interface and the ability to update large sets of products quickly."
"SAP Master Data Governance is a customizable solution and is flexible."
"A good solution for large enterprises."
"The data capturing and data governance features are valuable."
"SAP is a closed tool. Integrating with it requires a lot of effort and money. It is also very expensive and not flexible."
"I am satisfied with the solution's customer service."
"This is an all-around good product."
"The most valuable thing is what it does: data management."
"The ability to identify and manage duplicate data is valuable. The solution automatically checks for duplication possibilities based on criteria like name matching."
 

Cons

"The ability to create bespoke workflows could be improved."
"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.

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Riversand MDMCenter isn't expensive. I believe their price is in the mid-range."

"We have an enterprise license. The whole SAP landscape pricing model is based on the number of users, and the number of transactions. The price could be better, there is always room for improvement in the price."
"The cloud solution is subscription-based, it is paid monthly or quarterly. If the solution is on-premises, it is a one-time fee. As far as I am aware there are no additional costs."
"I rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The solution is costly."
"The pricing is a bit too high."
