Modular design, product-based MDM and easy to setup
Stibo is a great product if you want to utilize it in product-based MDM. Customer-base, they are still growing, but product-base is fine because every single time you have to create hierarchies in the product and not care about all the other stuff. But the major thing is the hierarchy, at which particular type that product is and what that product does, how it looks, what is the catalog, what are the relationships with other stuff. So, from that note, Stibo is great. Around 20 to 25 people were there when I was on a particular project. I knew around 20 to 25 people who knew Stibo MDM and were part of it.

Deliver short-term projects effectively while aiming for comprehensive customization
Regarding Syniti Master Data Management's features, there is a concept called data as a product. Looking at that term, Syniti Master Data Management lacks a few things as it is a customized solution we provide to the customer. The customer demands include four to five different elements, such as data cataloging or metadata management, data lineage, data quality, Master Data Management, and data freshness, which need to be integrated into one solution that currently I cannot see in any software. The main focus is more on Master Data Management. I recently had an interview where they pointed out that I only own 10% of what they are looking for. This also applies to Syniti Master Data Management, which is more focused on creating golden records, but at an organization level, they need a more concrete solution from just one platform or vendor. Other solutions such as Informatica are moving toward Customer 360 degrees and Product 360 degrees, integrating easily into environments, while Syniti Master Data Management is somewhat lacking in customizing solutions based on customer needs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Data profiling allows us to recognize values from our upstream applications. It helps us place limits on the creation of new data domains to organize the ecosystem. The golden record, crucial for downstream applications, ensures data integrity and consistency."
"It's powerful and it's stable."
"The match engine is very good and the BPM solution is very good as well."
"It's very user friendly, and we can do everything in one place."
"The second feature I love is its modular design, where you can create a certain number of entities and create hierarchical entities."
"The central data repository feature in Syniti Master Data Management is wonderful; it is an excellent feature, in my opinion."
 

Cons

"The initial setup is complex."
"The search feature for searching internal records could be improved."
"The customer service and support were a little adamant about giving workarounds rather than accepting that something was not working correctly."
"The analytics module can be improved. It is a self-service solution for creating new reports and submitting visions to bring more data to the CEO table."
"There is scope for improvement with regard to the UI."
"Syniti Master Data Management is more focused on creating golden records, but at an organization level, they need a more concrete solution from just one platform or vendor."
