Its functionality and performance are adequate but it provides a single source of truth for customer data
We use it as the Master Data Management platform for a large bank in Australia which has many separate customer data repositories The intent of this platform is to provide a single source of truth for customer data. To some extent, this has been achieved. Any customer MDM project tends to be…

Centralized master data has improved quality and now supports consistent global governance
Regarding what SAP can do better in SAP Master Data Governance, they have an entire roadmap of constant improvements since they deployed the product, always adding new business functionality and add-ons. Each company may have different feedback, wishing for certain features. The essence of SAP Master Data Governance is to provide structure, and from my standpoint, it offers a pretty good structure. There will always be areas for improvement; for example, when I deployed it a few years ago, their approach to internal orders for finance was still new, and they were figuring out how it would work based on organizational requirements. The financial data objects are straightforward, but financial statements are a bit more challenging. It is not a one-time deployment; it requires ongoing investment in user and product knowledge, and you need to weigh the pros and cons of any IT solution. I often advise clients to walk before they run because establishing hierarchies requires having a designed structure before implementation, though you can add that later. For additional functions in SAP Master Data Governance, it is interesting because on my project, we are already using AI technology for data cleansing before records are entered into SAP Master Data Governance. It would be beneficial to have the Dun & Bradstreet add-on within SAP Master Data Governance. However, one must remember that for AI to work effectively, it requires good data. Without that, AI does not make a difference. SAP Master Data Governance will always require a human perspective, especially to identify duplicate records. While SAP Master Data Governance provides technical capabilities for identifying potential duplicates based on searches, it requires human oversight due to the complexity of analyzing data fields. I believe integrating AI into the product could work, particularly after a solid data migration, which ensures that the records are reliable before utilizing AI for analytics.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The intent of this platform is to provide a single source of truth for customer data."
"It is a solid, reliable product with a robust development history and good support behind them."
"It follows the SAP standard rules and governance for master data operations and follows change and release management rules according to SAP standards for IT operations."
"Our organization was able to gain more trusted data."
"Technical support is good."
"Additionally, the solution complies with all industry standards and validates all aspects from security to authorization and authentication as applicable at the backend, providing room for easy maintenance."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of SAP Master Data Governance is very easy."
"The product is very useful in terms of building master data and in terms of our code."
"If a company is already using SAP, then there is no doubt that it is a good choice."
"I am satisfied with the solution's customer service."
 

Cons

"Any customer MDM project tends to be complicated and difficult to show a positive business case over a short to medium time frame."
"It has essentially been "frozen" by Oracle - they don't seem to be updating it any further."
"OCH has adequate functionality and performance to serve a group customer master."
"The profiling feature, especially for materials, needs improvement. We faced challenges maintaining specific details for a single material from multiple vendors."
"Strong solid base in the SAP ERP, but it needs to improve its maturity in certain elements (data model coverage, performance, usability, and search)."
"The UI could improve by being more neat and clean. Sometimes users find it difficult to use it."
"It does not ensure data matches after system upgrades."
"Although changes are currently being made to fix it, the product can be improved by ensuring data matches when upgrading to a new system because every system does not use SAP."
"Bill of materials (BOM) creation in manufacturing needs to be enhanced in SAP Master Data Governance."
"I'd like to see more flexibility which is currently lacking."
"The implementation could be easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is costly."
"I rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The cost of the product is not ideal."
"SAP Master Data Governance is an expensive solution."
"The cloud solution is subscription-based, it is paid monthly or quarterly. If the solution is on-premises, it is a one-time fee. As far as I am aware there are no additional costs."
"The licensing cost is reasonable."
"The pricing is a bit too high."
"SAP Master Data Governance is a licensed product. While there might be no upfront cost for the MDG component itself, you still need to pay for user authorizations."
