Detailed technical support and data integration capabilities create seamless user experience
Regarding SAP Master Data Governance, there is significant room for improvement particularly concerning the replication types. For example, when a vendor master is created in Ariba and a request is submitted from the Ariba system, SAP Ariba directs it to MDG. MDG verifies the details entirely through PI/PO or CPI. Once MDG verifies the data, the request is submitted to the S/4HANA system, the target. After a final approval at all levels, the vendor number is generated, and the vendor code gets passed from source to target system. This number is available in both the Ariba integration in the systems and in SAP BPT code, as well as the S/4HANA system.

A solution that offers good performance, good stability, and a straightforward setup
We are a reseller of the solution. We handle on-premises deployment. The solution is very similar to IBM. It may have a bit more integration capabilities that IBM doesn't have yet, but they are similar. In terms of which would be better, it would come down to the customer's requirements. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. All of our customers are very happy and very impressed with the product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable thing is what it does: data management."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of SAP Master Data Governance is very easy."
"SAP MDG has extensive data models and good integration with upstream and downstream systems."
"Some of the features that I have found to be beneficial are the search and uploads functions."
"The ability to identify and manage duplicate data is valuable. The solution automatically checks for duplication possibilities based on criteria like name matching."
"I am satisfied with the solution's customer service."
"SAP MDG has built-in integration capabilities with multiple systems/streams. We can also create custom interfaces if needed."
"The data capturing and data governance features are valuable."
"With regards to choosing flash versus traditional storage, it's just so much simpler to manage and users get so much better performance from flash."
 

Cons

"The product is not user-friendly."
"The documentation provided for the MDG extensions by Utopia could be improved."
"Overall, they just a little bit more flexibility in terms of assigning roles or adding new roles. We have a longer approval process, so we need to break it down into more roles than what is typically available and we need to hard-code it."
"There is no clarity and direction on how to manage bills of materials (BOMs) or routing in MDG."
"The multidomain MDM feature is based on EIP systems, which may not be a good model for all master data."
"RiverFront is a more modern and cost-effective solution compared to MDG. It is flexible and designed to handle big data, which MDG does not support well."
"The UI could improve by being more neat and clean. Sometimes users find it difficult to use it."
"The technical support should be improved."
"The pricing model could use improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing cost is reasonable."
"We have an enterprise license. The whole SAP landscape pricing model is based on the number of users, and the number of transactions. The price could be better, there is always room for improvement in the price."
"The solution is costly."
"I rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."
"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 product is too expensive."
"The cost of the product is not ideal."
"The pricing is a bit too high."
