Likelihood to Recommend IBM Cloud Pak for Data with Netezza is well suited for clients who require fast, economical analytics processing. It is not designed to be used as a transactional processing environment. For example, a large customer is using it during the point of sale process. That makes little sense in that business case. However, to take analysis to market faster, it excels well in that space.

Using semantic data space instances with workflows improves performance significantly; firms with several domains may use the same application with numerous data spaces for master data management. SAP (MDG) remains unique in the flexibility to model and manage master data the way it is used in the company, with all capabilities easily available through an intuitive user interface, and is not bound by the vendor's mandated data models.

GCP availability will be in the future as there is demand in the marketplace The on premise offering starts with a Base + 0 model, which is a significant appliance. There are no 'mini' offerings as there were in the past. At Destiny, we work closely with IBM to help our clients perform budgetary planning. Read full review As with all powerful and complex information platforms, SAP MDG does have a learning curve to it, especially if you plan on doing advanced things such as implementing MDM automation. SAP MDG is capable of replicating data across many platforms (including non-SAP) however, this too, has a learning curve to it and will require some work.

We have found that usually, you will need to define each workflow yourself in order for it to work properly.

Given that it is a very good tool to govern and control master data. Mainly if your company runs SAP systems which there will be a very straight forward integration, not needing any additional middleware or technologies.

Read full review Support Rating I haven't been using the support services individually. Instead, there are responsible units within the institution who train and support the users of the software in the institution. The service provided by these units are quite adequate and they probably get the service from SAP itself. That's why, I can assume that the support services are quite successful.
