    I think CPQ had worked so well for our company because of the widespread nature of our associates and tracking orders that were being placed in multiple time zones. My team specifically needed a way of analyzing these orders to track our progress in real time and sort out any supply orders before they became an issue. If you are in a centralized location with a smaller team then this may not yield much use to you.

    The best use case of SAP Master Data Governance is centrally consolidating your organizational data so you can make sense of it and make business decisions using that data. We live in a world where data can be all over the place, and making sense of it is a skill of its own.

    Pros
    Oracle
    • Leveraged automation to minimize headcount costs despite 10% year-over-year business growth, and enabled staff to focus on more strategic tasks.
    • Established a flexible CPQ system that scales on demand to easily accommodate the company’s multiple global locations.
    • Improved customer relations by reducing configuration time and allowing sales more time to meet with customers and close orders.

    Cons
    Oracle
    • Significant setup time, cost, and maintenance. We have to use an implementation partner
    • Does not always play well with other software, even Oracle software. While this is improved and being further improved, that it was a third party acquisition means things sometimes require a little extra care
    • Additional setup documentation and first walkthroughs would be helpful, especially if it was all in one place

    • We've had to design our own unique or alternative solutions to satisfy our business objectives because plugins don't always perform well with the main product.
    • It can be sluggish at times and lacks functionality offered by rival MDM packages, as well as limited resources and documentation for certain areas such as hierarchy.

    So far it is all good with BigMachines, looking for new features since Oracle acquisition has created a lot of expectations. We have outlined our limitations (out of box functionality) in our periodic customer successor advice meetings for a while, hope we get a resolution soon. Also, the BigMachines user license fee has increased a lot in the last three years.

    MDG has proven to work and to bring results once implemented with the right approach, right engagement and sponsorship. 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.

    Usability
    Oracle
    The software UI can be as complex or as simple as you need it to be (depending on the business). It does require training others on quote configuration and the order in which to build out order positions prior to configuring a quote. Once users are trained;however, it is fairly straight-forward. The UI is still more static than other new wizard/drag-and-drop models, but it get's the job done

    Support Rating
    Oracle
    Some specific support personal was good and fixed some problems fast using proper solutions. But when one of them went to sleep when we had critical issues and they do unreported commits to our production environment which caused issues and they were hiding it?? you can not give more than a two (maybe even that is too much). They also failed to add a feature for us which also bring the grade down.

    SAP provides great support for Master Data Governance (MDG). They work with us when we are faced with issues in standard solutions. SAP has a great set of Fiori tools that can be used for a better user experience. The issue with SAP is their web dynpro UI screens and they need to provide better support for performance issues that customers face.

    Implementation Rating
    Oracle
    It was a much more technical implementation than we thought. It involved much more code.

    Future releases have made and will make administering the tool easier.

    EDL consulting had one good developer, but when he was moved off, they were horrible to work with.

    The BMI sales team does a “BOA” or a “Business Operation Assessment” which is extremely valuable, not only for them to scope an implementation and get more reach within the organization, but it is also a documentation of business process that most organizations don’t have. It highlights inefficiencies and allows for correction during implementation.

    Having a dedicated team (in-house) for implementation is key

    Oracle engagement is ahead. They are active in the development of the tool and provide great support after implementation. They also listen to their customers and offer opportunities to feedback and provide input through activities like the customer advisory board forum.

    An environment provided by SAP Master Data Governance seamless and integration with other SAP products is very good. Also it ensures compatibility and streamlines procedures, this integration is beneficial for businesses who have already invested in SAP products.

    Return on Investment
    Oracle
    • Increased Sales Rep efficiency. Being able to create multiple quotes ACCURATELY and quickly was a game changer.
    • Large implementation time. It's a little difficult to fit BMI into a SCRUM style build, with multiple working models and prototypes of all 3 simultaneously.
    • A larger fee for licensing and implementation cost. ROI wouldn't be realized in the first year.

    • MDG is definitely an investment that takes a few years to recuperate. (If you are looking at pure, direct financial benefits.)
    • However, if you look at all the productivity gains in the business due to not having to stop the business constantly because of data issues, the payback period would be substantially shorter.
    • In particular, we were able to reduce master data maintenance staffing levels while increasing quality and decreasing workload for business requesters and approvers.
    • Not having to worry about data integrity issues has shortened the time to realize benefits for several of our major process change related projects and it has also decreased the risk of these projects running into significant delays (often at the last minute) due to master data being misjudged during the process resdesign.
