Share your experience using Profisee

We use Profisee for mastering data between multiple systems like ERP and CRM within our company.

The product helps us by allowing us to bring data in from any system that we need, master it, and deliver clean records for data and analytics.

Profisee's ability to master data using the Goldstein record concept is valuable. Additionally, creating our own interface and having it work in the way we want is beneficial.

Profisee is making improvements for the year 2024, including integrating directly with other solutions.

We have been using Profisee for going on three years.

Profisee allows us to master any data from any source efficiently.

The scalability is fabulous, allowing us to bring data from various sources and master it.

Profisee's customer service is very responsive, and they have a comprehensive training academy, Profisee Academy, that helps guide the implementation process.

Previously, data management was done manually, which was cumbersome. Profisee has been used at the last two places I worked.

Profisee's initial setup was straightforward. However, some security complexities might add time to the setup.

Deployment involved roles varying from associate to lead in MDM and typically included a cloud service engineer and data engineer.

Profisee's pricing is comparable to other MDM tools.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

We use Profisee for MDM. It integrates with tools like Purview for data cataloging and matching and then writes records to a master data database. We transfer the data to a data warehouse for analysis and troubleshooting. It helps us manage data from various sources and apply rules for data governance.

The most valuable features for ensuring data accuracy and quality are mappings and creating business rules. Profisee's adaptive approach and data monitoring are also beneficial. Adaptive cards facilitate collaboration among team members for updating master data. While the basics of data management are similar across platforms like Talend, Profisee's Azure-centric approach is now more convenient for us.

Profisee could improve in providing clearer data lineage information. Currently, I find it easier to gather this from Purview rather than Profisee. However, I haven't fully explored all of Profisee's functionalities, so there might be options I'm unaware of.

I have been using Profisee for a year.

We haven't had any stability issues with Profisee so far.

I would rate Profisee's tech support at around an eight out of ten.

The main difference between Purview and Profisee is their focus. Purview concentrates more on data cataloging and metadata management, helping users understand their data profiles and lineage. On the other hand, Profisee emphasizes MDM, particularly in managing master data databases and applying business rules to ensure data quality and consistency. While they have some overlapping functionalities, they serve different stages of the data lifecycle.
Some users may still be exploring Profisee's capabilities, and not everyone fully understands all of its functions. 

The Profisee user interface has positively impacted our data management. As a data architect and enterprise developer, I have seen that it is convenient for the data storage team to complete their work. The interface is visually clear and easy to understand, streamlining the entire process.

Profisee's scalability and integration capabilities with other systems are highly effective, particularly within an Azure-centric environment. Its seamless integration with Azure services like Purview enables comprehensive data lifecycle management, including data lineage and management.

Implementing Profisee has potentially made our time to market for new products and services more efficient. Qualifying master data and making it available downstream for data consumption seems smoother now. As a bank, our response to data availability might differ from other industries like advertising. Overall, I see positive impacts from using Profisee.

I would recommend Profisee to others, but it depends on various factors such as how well it fits with their business domain, cost considerations, and resource availability. If they have centralized their data in Azure, Profisee is a no-brainer for data management.

Overall, I would rate Profisee as an eight out of ten.
