I recommend Semarchy xDM as it is very effective for getting MVPs up and running and showing proof of concepts. Other companies, including multinationals, are using it. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

I'm not sure which version of the solution I'm using. While I typically use the on-premises version, I took their partner training workshop a few months ago and that was in the cloud on AWS. It is one cool little tool. I was able to take a handful of records as a use case and easily ingested them into the tool, and the customers just loved it. I was able to show how you can easily cleanse those records, standardize those records, match them, and build the golden record very quickly. I'd advise users to pick a small use case, take it end to end, and build it out that way as a proof of concept. Have fun with it, however, be sure to start out small. Pick the low hanging fruit. I hate saying that, as it sounds so cliche and overused. That said, it really works. You can really have fun with Semarchy, due to the fact that you can build something very quickly. I loved it. What we would do is, we would have a use case that was like a story about a handful of customers that we wanted to master. We would start off with our little animated presentation, then we would get everybody on a Zoom call and we would walk them through. We'd say "Okay, now we're going to ingest the records. Now, look, see, we can see how X is in here five different times. Let's look at her addresses. Now, let's pick the key fields that we want to use as our match criteria. Etc." If you make it fun with the client and bring the client on board, it really gives you the best chance for success. Building those relationships with the data stores, with the different product owners and everything is so important. Otherwise, the client is going to be intimidated and scared, and they'll end up spending a lot of money and it'll sit on the shelf. Overall, I would rate the solution eight out of ten. To take it to a 10, they would have to, for example, put in dynamic workflows and then improve their reporting to make it a little bit more out-of-the-box. Other than that, it's excellent.
