Efficient management of multi-domain masters but API integrations could be improved
As for improvement, the con is basically API integrations. I would like to have some improved API integrations in the future release. Moreover, there is room for improvement in the setup process. The company should move the deployment to the cloud and make it a ready setup. In the market, many of the players, like Trento, Semarchy, and MDM software which are on the cloud, are ready to use. All the installation is pre-defined so that the installation cost is not to be added by the client every time. So, deployment and installation are specific to the service partner only. A client cannot do it by themselves.

Centralized master data has improved quality and now supports consistent global governance
Regarding what SAP can do better in SAP Master Data Governance, they have an entire roadmap of constant improvements since they deployed the product, always adding new business functionality and add-ons. Each company may have different feedback, wishing for certain features. The essence of SAP Master Data Governance is to provide structure, and from my standpoint, it offers a pretty good structure. There will always be areas for improvement; for example, when I deployed it a few years ago, their approach to internal orders for finance was still new, and they were figuring out how it would work based on organizational requirements. The financial data objects are straightforward, but financial statements are a bit more challenging. It is not a one-time deployment; it requires ongoing investment in user and product knowledge, and you need to weigh the pros and cons of any IT solution. I often advise clients to walk before they run because establishing hierarchies requires having a designed structure before implementation, though you can add that later. For additional functions in SAP Master Data Governance, it is interesting because on my project, we are already using AI technology for data cleansing before records are entered into SAP Master Data Governance. It would be beneficial to have the Dun & Bradstreet add-on within SAP Master Data Governance. However, one must remember that for AI to work effectively, it requires good data. Without that, AI does not make a difference. SAP Master Data Governance will always require a human perspective, especially to identify duplicate records. While SAP Master Data Governance provides technical capabilities for identifying potential duplicates based on searches, it requires human oversight due to the complexity of analyzing data fields. I believe integrating AI into the product could work, particularly after a solid data migration, which ensures that the records are reliable before utilizing AI for analytics.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The feature that was most valuable to me was the ability to export files into .CSV format."
"Efficient management of multi-domain masters, product suppliers, and locations."
"Validates all aspects from security to authorization and authentication."
"SAP MDG has extensive data models and good integration with upstream and downstream systems."
"It follows the SAP standard rules and governance for master data operations and follows change and release management rules according to SAP standards for IT operations."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of SAP Master Data Governance is very easy."
"I am satisfied with the solution's customer service."
"The new workflow engine is based on the web app rather than the Java-based approach."
"This is a high-quality solution and provides for proper governance, is user-friendly, and enables us to get a lot of customized reports and personalized data so there is no need to have different applications to check data quality."
"The technical support is very good; they are very helpful."
 

Cons

"As for improvement, the con is basically API integrations."
"If a large file was imported/exported, or a lot of people were logged into the system, it would slow down and crash."
"It's not very scalable. We ran into all kinds of issues in trying to capture items."
"Strong solid base in the SAP ERP, but it needs to improve its maturity in certain elements (data model coverage, performance, usability, and search)."
"The SAP MDG setup is quite difficult. I would rate the initial setup at three out of five because it is complicated and very difficult."
"Consolidation function based on HANA needs improvement"
"The technical support should be improved."
"The implementation could be easier."
"The multidomain MDM feature is based on EIP systems, which may not be a good model for all master data."
"SAP should come up with specialized services as per their customer's requirements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of the solution is cost-effective."
"I rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."
"SAP Master Data Governance is an expensive solution."
"The product is too expensive."
"The cost of the product is not ideal."
"The cloud solution is subscription-based, it is paid monthly or quarterly. If the solution is on-premises, it is a one-time fee. As far as I am aware there are no additional costs."
"We have an enterprise license. The whole SAP landscape pricing model is based on the number of users, and the number of transactions. The price could be better, there is always room for improvement in the price."
"The solution is costly."
"SAP Master Data Governance is a licensed product. While there might be no upfront cost for the MDG component itself, you still need to pay for user authorizations."
