1) Limitations in SAP MDG for managing our customer hierarchies and relationships. 2) SAP MDG is suitable for enterprises with a predominant SAP landscape and not for enterprises with a complex mix of SAP and non-SAP. 3) Overall data cleansing, harmonization, de-duplication, workflow capabilities of Informatica are stronger. 4) Integration capabilities are comparable, but SAP MDG had a few limitations on non-SAP integrations.
