Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Microsoft, TIBCO and others in Master Data Management (MDM) Software."The most valuable feature is the administration console."
"The best thing about it is that it comes with the Microsoft package."
"It has a very good feature called Excel plug-in. You just have to install the plug-in, and then it directly connects to the MDS instance where you can maintain and manage your data and publish it right through Excel. You don't need to go to the front end to make any changes. It has easy integration with SQL Server, and you can use SSIS to do the ETLs. It is a part of the Microsoft stack. It works with most of the Microsoft stuff."
"It is very easy to deploy and provision a machine."
"The backup and restore functionality are the solution's most valuable aspects."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft MDS is its management."
"Enables non-technical people to directly interact with the BI system."
"What I like about Microsoft, is that it has a huge database with many users."
"Hybris is stable and has good architecture. It's easy to maintain."
"There are occasions when the solution maintains SD and we get duplications of MDS."
"The stability could be improved."
"The only drawback is that it does not have the matching, merging, and all true MDM components. For these, you have to use another competent called Data Quality Services (DQS). You need to plug it in and use it along with MDS for true MDM. Both of these are integrated together, but you have to do them separately, whereas, in Profisee, there are a couple of screens where you can configure the matching process, create matching rules, and other things, and everything is in one product, which is not the case with MDS. In order to implement a true MDM, you need MDS, DQS, and SSIS. You have to use MDS to store your golden records, DQS to configure and standardize all your rules and matching percentages, and SSIS to load the data to DQS and MDS. At the same time, you also need Melissa Data to clean up your addresses to validate and standardize the addresses. That's the main component of true MDM. It would be good if they can create a true matching component inside MDS and merge MDS and DQS."
"Most of the Microsoft partners, especially digitally, are separate. Personnel are business people, and they do not have technical expertise, so you end up as a company spending a lot of money training your staff and your engineers."
"JMD repositories have records that come in thousands and millions, which takes a long time to process."
"The solution could be better integrated into Microsoft's other products."
"It would be a better option to have an on-cloud version."
"Microsoft MDS' language should be simple so everyone can use it easily."
"They can change their backend because it's a little hard to work with. They could streamline it with new technology."
