3.0

Jul 27, 2018

On platform version 11.5, the system is fully functional and meets all functional requirements. When you try to update the system to the latest version 11.6 part of the functionality stopped working as originally intended and are used to. At the moment, they refused to switch to the latest version in favor of business users of the system. The only thing that causes our users complaints is the usability of the interface.

Reviewer Insights for: IBM Product Master

IBM Product Master Likes & Dislikes

Very intuitive user interface. Simple with intergration and with cloud based access of data. Team collaboration accross the organization.

Ease and simplicity of implementation. The absence of the predefined structures of the reference. The ability to design the solution and the structure of the directory for your needs completely (compared to SAP)

It helps to better understand data. It also improves ease with new role-based interfaces to help users better understand their data.

I did not find anything to dislike with the software.

The user interface is very outdated. Lack of some standard functionality: upload / upload to excel. Lack of support for different browsers. Very specific features of custom modifications and their integration into solutions.

It could allow an authenticated user with CA level access to change their CA identity and road sensible information

Adaptable Data Model And WorkIBM Infosphere MDM CE is an extraordinary Solution. We use it for overseeing and managing item information (we have an entirely enormous and complex item index). MDM CE's adaptable information structure and work processes fit our business needs well indeed. Additionally, we have tweaked the arrangement with our Java augmentations for explicit figuring and approvals. We have had barely any issues with ongoing update and selection of new business UI, yet a respectable answer for overseeing item information.flows
