Updates large sets of products quickly; provides good off-the-shelf functionality
I'm the managing director and we are customers of Riversand This solution provides a good user interface and the ability to update large sets of products quickly. It's one of its best features along with providing good off-the-shelf functionality. The ability to create bespoke workflows could be…

Beneficial flexible data models, effective GUI workflows, and feature rich application
Everything is updated through forms, and working with UI web forms. It's more record-based processing. It is not mass-based processing. This is one of the things that are not good for TIBCO EBX. Another problem is we cannot join tables and prepare a view where the tables are joined. Someone can code it but it is not a feature of the solution without code. You have to take data from a table, combine it with data from another table and then present it. This could be done better. TIBCO EBX should improve the UI, to allow users to easily mass change the data a bit more. We should not have to click the records one by one to change the data. The filter is in a form, and if one is to filter the data based on a form, you have to click every single attribute. It is difficult with the UI. However, one could be inspired by mobile phone UIs, how they are doing it because they are more efficient and this is missing in TIBCO EBX.

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."
"The API and the data model are very valuable features."
"The most valuable features of TIBCO EBX are the workflow and interface."
"This solution allows the user to have complete control, and is 100% customizable."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable features of TIBCO EBX are that is a complete tool and everything can be done inside, including data governance. We are able to model everything according to the needs of the company. If the company needs five people to agree to a change in data, they can do it with TIBCO EBX. They can model it with any particular rules. Additionally, there is dynamic data modeling, simple workflows using the GUI that comes from the server."
"EBX is cost-effective as it is a web-based application."
"There are a lot of possible use cases for this Master Data Management tool."
"The tool's UI is good and easy to understand."
 

Cons

"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 solution does not have a good match and search capability."
"The ability to create bespoke workflows could be improved."
"We would like to see the community an documentation for this solution be developed. At present there is very little tutorial documentation available, and limited community support for issues with the product."
"Currently, users can't use Plain SQL queries in TIBCO EBX."
"The product does not scale well horizontally. We find the scalability to be quite inferior to other options."
"The tool has to improve mapping and workflow. It should be made more robust."
"In terms of improvements that this solution needs, it should support big data."
"The initial setup can be a bit complex."
"The documentation needs improvement."
"Marketing could be improved, as EBX wasn't well-presented in Turkey."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Riversand MDMCenter isn't expensive. I believe their price is in the mid-range."
"TIBCO EBX is a very expensive solution. There is an annual fee to use the solution."
"This solution is costly compared to other products on the market, but this is due to the complete functionality that is provided. The pricing model is very straightforward, and is worked out on a pay-per- instance basis, and only applies to active instances."
"The price of TIBCO EBX is too high. The solution can only be used in a project that has good sponsorship that can afford it."
"TIBCO EBX is cheaper than Informatica."
"I'm just involved in technical, but I understand that its pricing is similar to HP so it is quite expensive."
