Sr Solution Architect - Enterprise Storage and Virtualization at a computer software company with 501-1,000 employees

Effective service consolidation, new features frequent added, and beneficial centralized management

My advice to others would be IBM Master Data Management on Cloud should be considered as one of the solutions in comparison with other cloud providers in that area. Compare other solutions, such as Azure or AWS Endure data management. Based on some of the projects that we have had most customers have been extremely satisfied, I rate IBM Master Data Management on Cloud a nine out of ten.

Offers features that pinpoints locations with maps and provides reporting about data performance and completeness

Until I work with a customer, I won't be able to recognize the performance regarding the integration of records, especially when records are coming in as a full load or a delta after an initial load. I have to check how it performs in the integration part when pushing the entire data into MDM. Most tools have a downside in this area. So far, I have not faced any other problems regarding Reltio. I just did a certification and the provided hands-on exercises. I didn't find anything concerning, but I would definitely want to use the AI features introduced in Reltio more. The Hands-on Lab in the certification allows you to try out certain AI features.

Enterprise Architect

Good for diagnostics, stable, and has a straightforward setup, but lacks technology references

What's missing in the Talend MDM Platform is that it's not maintaining technology references. For example, my company needs a reference case if the platform has been implemented for a configuration that's similar to the client's required configuration. Currently, the client is still reluctant to roll out the Talend MDM Platform at a wider level because there's still no reference received from the Talend team.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"IBM Master Data Management on Cloud has been valuable because it has helped in the consolidation of services and lots of the cost of administering and centralizing all the management and automation. Additionally, new features are frequently added."

"It is very easy to learn. The"

"The most valuable feature of Reltio Cloud is the customization we can make in its functionality."

"The most valuable feature is real-time synchronization. You can see the events as soon as they are posted within a couple of fraction seconds."

"Its user interface is different from that of other MDM solutions like Informatica"

"The survivorship feature is great because we can define it, prioritize the sources, and only allow those sources to survive when making the golden record."

"We can store the data and enrich it from multiple sources."

"The solution saves 30% to 40% of our time."

"The cloud feature is very beneficial, and the scalability performance feature is excellent."

More Reltio Cloud pros

"What I like about the Talend MDM Platform is that it's a good vendor diagnostic tool."

Cons

"The solution is continually being improved by adding features. They should continue to improve the solution in the future."

"AI features should be introduced in Reltio more."

"The support team is slow to respond when we need assistance with workflow deployments. We must rely on their availability and contact them to receive the required JAR files."

"The deployment is difficult."

"Sometimes, the service goes down for maintenance or when we run a lot of jobs so things get pushed to the queue and results don't get delivered on time."

"The solution's UI could be enhanced, and its record filtering could be expanded."

"The download process can be quite slow"

"We need manual data modeling and configuration to tailor the platform to our requirements."

"Reltio Cloud could be improved in two specific areas. Firstly, the API capability needs to be enhanced, as when utilizing the REST API and posting a significant amount of data, there are multiple rejections from the MDM side. This can be due to the MDM server not responding or being unable to process the request. Therefore, I suggest that the API capacity should be increased to handle larger amounts of data. Additionally, I have noticed that the response time from the servers can take up to a minute or a few seconds, which can be improved for a faster response time."

More Reltio Cloud cons

"What's missing in the Talend MDM Platform is that it's not maintaining technology references. For example, my company needs a reference case if the platform has been implemented for a configuration that's similar to the client's required configuration. Currently, the client is still reluctant to roll out the Talend MDM Platform at a wider level because there's still no reference received from the Talend team."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"The licensing cost for the Talend MDM Platform is paid yearly, but I'm unable to give you the figure. I would rate its price as four out of five because it's on the cheaper side. I'm not aware of any extra costs in addition to the standard licensing fees for the Talend MDM Platform."
