"The staging and hierarchical features are the most valuable."
"A great product enrichment tool."
"One good feature is that SAS MDM comes bundled with the entire stack so we are in a position to place it with the client. So when a client wants an analytics tool plus BI, and they want to bring in other elements, that is when we look to MDM, because it is a single vendor."

"They need more feature flexibility, as it is not fully developed."
"Database access is highly restricted particularly if you're using the cloud version."
