If you have information systems with lots of information but need a solution that ties together the data Alex Solution is really a great tool for this. We're a large international company, so this was our case. But if you are a smaller local company with not that much data available it could be you should look for other solutions for a start.

Oracle
As mentioned in my first paragraph, we have found Oracle MetaData management to be very helpful with our training material. Because our business is constantly changing, we often have to modify terminology, procedures, photos, and more. Properly cataloging our materials allows us to use the metadata to quickly search through all resources and identify items that require revision. It is very helpful and saved a tremendous amount of time searching.

Alternatives Considered
Alex Solutions
I have seen companies with Alex and Collibra, and if I should choose one of these tools based on my knowledge and feedback from the users, I would definitely choose Alex Solutions. From a user perspective Alex Solutions is easier to use - it really is just more intuitive and for most users that can make the difference between using and not using the solution

Oracle
We researched Alex Solutions in addition to Oracle Metadata Management, and although there were comparable price points, features, and capabilities, we ultimately decided to go with Oracle because we use Oracle for our LMS. The integration was seamless and provided a way to get things up and running quickly. We haven’t had any major issues or concerns that have caused us to question that decision at this time.

  • EDM is not a good ROI for a single application in the Oracle Cloud.
  • EDM is a good ROI for when you have multiple applications in Oracle Cloud.
  • EDM is not a good ROI if you have more then 5K unique members as it get very costly.
