Categories & Use Cases

Reltio: A Data Platform for All

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We implement Reltio for our clients across a variety of industries. The most significant business problems faced by our clients is loss of revenues or operational efficiencies due to poor quality data and duplicate instances of their customers, products, locations, partners/vendors. Our implementations impact the functional areas of customer care, customer service, finance, supply chain, etc. For most of our implementations, the Reltio Connected Data Platform, drives changes in processes and behaviors of data owners and data creators that eventually contribute to enhanced data sets.

Pros

  • Data quality dashboard of your mastered data
  • User friendly and flexible data stewardship
  • Lineage management

Cons

  • Householding for use cases where a household definition goes beyond 'living at the same address'
  • Implementation of business logic within the MDM platform during data ingestion

Return on Investment

  • Being a system integration firm, Reltio as a product has served as a platform of growth for us.

Reltio Connected Data Platform Experience

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using Reltio for enriching vendor and customer data with D&B information like duns number, D&B hierarchy, partner demographics etc which helps business in building trusted data and also helps in setting up custom hierarchy, Customer vendor integration using household concept ; Seamless integration with SFDC allows users to use UI or import for bulk updates. We also able to consolidate legacy customers data from over 5 systems with ease using match merge survivorship techniques.

Pros

  • integration with SFDC, D&B
  • Reltio API allows us to build interfaces with ease.
  • The beauty of Reltio is Consolidation at any time we can review data at field level from different sources (crosswalk) and configure match merge and survivorship rules to define operational value and approved data can be redistributed to the upstream or downstream systems.
  • With Central data governance, enrichment with D&B allows creating trusted data and distribute to various systems.

Cons

  • UI does not support creating different profile views for an entity based upon customer types as example however we can achieve this by using sub entities ( sub classes). This feature is useful if we are creating profiles in reltio manually.
  • Manual export every time we need to pick entities, fields etc does not allow to save templates. workaround is using postman creating predefined API with selected fields, filters and trigger export.
  • UI does not support data masking which needed while we maintain PII information
  • Potential Matches doesnt auto sort on confidence code so users need to manually select deselect relevant entities which is time consuming and painful process however this issue is when we have more than 4 entities as potential matches.
  • It would be beneficial if UI displays data related errors (if any) between Reltio and SFDC.

Return on Investment

  • helps us in consolidation of legacy data
  • improve quality of data by d&b integration
  • ease of use
  • ease of implementation
