    If you have a community with more than 100 active users, and you're looking for ideas around operational improvements that can be acted on in a 6-12 month window, Spigit will work great, and it's one of the best options out there. If you're trying to customize the platform much, you should plan on paying Spigit's service group to do that for you, because it's not easy to do yourself. If you're looking for ideas that will take more than about a year to implement, Spigit is as good as anyone else because that's a really tough thing to do in an innovation community!

    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
    Planview
    • Acknowledges and supports the culture around the problem and market it is trying to serve. Just using the platform won't solve our problem, we need a cultural shift and Spigit has helped support that process.
    • Customer service - just overall amazing service. Responses are very quickly turned around, they've gone the extra mile many, many times. They are also very open to platform improvements and take feedback very seriously.
    • As the system administrator, I feel their platform incorporates a great balance of templates, out-of-the-box formatting, etc., and customizable content. In a nutshell, we are able to do what we want but we don't have to spend forever to do it. We can use what they have or we can add in our own design.

    • Data conversation and Data uploading into SAP S/4 HANA system using SAP Master Data Governance during SAP implementation phase.
    • Centrally Data governance to have visibility of data in different systems with integration to SAP Master Data Governance, including SAP S/4, SAP EWM and SAP Ariba.
    • Data Management and Data correction using MDM through SAP Master Data Governance for Materials, which is subjected to approval before finally using in the S/4.

    Cons
    Planview
    • There are many ways to configure the solution. Some features make more sense to use at times and should be hidden from users at other times. It would be nice if Spigit had pre-defined configuration templates that reflect the experience and knowledge of their current customer's experience using the software and not just a 1 size fits all base configuration. The good news is with a little experience, these configurations can be created as saved templates.

    • 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.

    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.

    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.

    Most platforms had a nice UI, this wasn't the differentiator. What it came down to was mostly around we don't know what we'll need in the future:
    • Market leadership: on stable ground, not going anywhere
    • Thought leadership: improving the software, inspiring new ways to use it
    • Highly configurable platform: supports use cases we don't know we even need right now
    • Strong services if you need them: always there if you run into trouble or are short staffed

    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
    Planview
    • Firstly, it is hard to define or describe an ROI for an innovation project (and tool) that is in its experimental phase... But a positive is the impact in the overall engagement of employees, especially in overpopulated structures where it is not easy to "become visible, and the smart ones wait for a chance like this platform.
    • Where a clear and strong sponsorship is in place, this platform can stimulate ideas that can potentially have a great impact in services improvement
    • Based on our specific limits in engaging top management, we still cannot see a speed in products or processes improvement.

    • 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.
