Quick MVP development facilitated by low-code data management
Semarchy xDM's unique selling point is its quick turnover time, allowing for the rapid development of a proof of concept or minimum viable product. Its low-code approach, essentially a wrapper for SQL, enables easy and quick development. The core features include validation business rules, deduplication, merging, and consolidation from multiple sources.
Lourens Janse Van Rensburg - PeerSpot reviewer
An MDM tool that offers stability, scalability, and an easy setup phase
Currently, users can't use Plain SQL queries in TIBCO EBX. It would be great to use Plain SQL queries in TIBCO EBX. Right now, TIBCO EBX only supports Java, but I believe that it should support SQL queries on its interface. In short, certain areas in the UI area can be improved to support SQL queries.

"Semarchy xDM's unique selling point is its quick turnover time, allowing for the rapid development of a proof of concept or minimum viable product."

Cons

"There is room for improvement in terms of local support."
"They need to make the workflow more enhanced or dynamic in its functionality."
"There is room for improvement in the developer experience, particularly for those who are SQL proficient, as having more direct access would be beneficial."
"The product does not scale well horizontally. We find the scalability to be quite inferior to other options."
"The initial setup can be a bit complex."
"The documentation needs improvement."
"In terms of improvements that this solution needs, it should support big data."
"The support isn't great and takes too long. And the pricing can be improved."
"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."
"The tool has to improve mapping and workflow. It should be made more robust."
"TIBCO EBX could improve by making the building of rules less complex and the repository is not robust."
