BigHand Metadata Management vs. SAP Information Steward

SAP Information Steward is well suited for companies looking for profiling data, monitoring data quality and managing policies. It provides dashboards and features to create the awareness on Data Quality dimensions. SAP IS is not suited to manage huge amount of data due to performance issues. It is not designed to correct data by its own. However, It can remediate data through integration with SAP Master Data Governance or SAP Data Services.

Moreover SAP strategy is not very clear for this particular product hence often we are confused while exploring more related scenarios
