    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.

    If you have processes that are now managed and controlled using a spreadsheet, Zapier will give you a lot more control over what is happening and will help you increase productivity by eliminating simple steps such as sending emails and sharing information with your colleagues. It frees time for very transactional activities.

    Cons
    SAP
    • 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.

    • Being able to turn off one leg of a Zap without having to delete it or turn the whole Zap off
    • Not all fields populate when using certain aspects of Salesforce, but that could be an SF issue
    • Communication when support is actually needed basically doesn't happen

    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.

    The interface is very user-friendly, and there are also many tools to help a brand-new user get started. For example, you can put your Zap idea into the AI bot, and it will basically build a shell of your Zap to get started on. The format for each step within a Zap is also very helpful (set up the connection/app, set up the fields/details, then test).

    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.

    Before we purchased Zapier, I contacted support and asked them if Zapier could support my intended workflow (this is actually a selection on their support form - awesome). Within 2 hours, I was contacted by a support team member who seemed sure it would work, but granted me premium access for 2 weeks to try it out for myself. Sure enough, it did! Ever since then, support has replied rapidly to any problems I have experienced and answered my questions within a few sentences.

    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.

    We actually utilize both Integromat and Zapier at our company, for all the reasons detailed in this review. Though Zapier is excellent for simple client integrations, we often run into internal use cases that require complexity that Zapier cannot provide. Specifically working with API calls (not just webhooks), complex multi-step integrations with Routing/parsing/etc, and large volume integrations. Integromat is perfect for these use cases, but doesn’t provide the simplicity and account scalability that Zapier offers.

    Return on Investment
    SAP
    • 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.
