We evaluated Microsoft master data services – it's nice but far from Ataccama RDM especially in workflow features
We use this system for managing reference data. It’s the most useful system for data warehouse because all data sources have to come from relational database. Unfortunately before Ataccama RDM was installed, some reference code books came from EXCEL, which is definitely an error-prone data source that does not have proper dataflow and quality checks when inputting data. We are using this system also for managing hard-coded logic in ETLs by creating special reference tables and creating workflows to update it in a manageable way. We will use it for managing code book which is currently booked in some systems but doesn’t have sexy features as in Ataccama RDM. This system can simplify data transfer between systems, eliminate extra copies and is different from a time perspective.

Modular structure and AI features stream new reporting processes
One of my clients has a requirement; they want to integrate metadata into the process, which means, for example, if I just want to implement a new field into my database, that field needs to be reflected throughout, let's say, 200 mappings. This highlights the need for a data-driven approach. My experience with technical support from Informatica is quite interesting; I would rate it as nine out of ten for Informatica PowerCenter kind of products or the Informatica integration products, because my team can do some hands-on using their free licenses or one-month kind of products. However, for products Master Data Management or related to MDM or Data Governance, there is no way by which we can directly practice, and my team struggles at that point.
