Our experience with IBM Infosphere has been good so far. We have large volumes (in millions) of customer data created by different operational applications and we needed a powerful MDM tool to manage the data. IBM has enabled us de-duplicate our data, create single enterprise customer id and bring all our critical customer information on a single platform. One of the issues with the IBM MDM tool is lack of a strong customer facing user interface for ongoing maintenance of customer data.

The process of engaging Ataccama, evaluating the product for fit, then getting started was very fluid and went quickly. Unlike many of the other bigger players in the space, their sales process feels seamless; there is no matrix of vertical versus product teams to navigate. Instead, they have very lean and agile sales / technical teams that keep things moving, adapting well to the customer as they learn more about the product. This also translated to our final contract in terms getting just the right mix of products / licenses. This was a refreshing experience for sure. They also have some good implementation partners nearby that are both extremely capable and cost efficient. So, we started off knowing that we not only had a solid tool set, we also had the partners we would need to execute and maintain. Now that we are in motion, Ataccama has been keen to build features into their product based on requirements surfaced through our project. That kind of speed in responding to and productizing requirements is extraordinary.

Master Data Management (MDM) is a combination of applications and technologies that consolidates, cleans, and augments the corporate master data, and synchronizes it with all applications, business processes, and analytical tools. This results in significant improvements in operational efficiency, reporting, and fact based decision-making. Technology components are ideal for building master data management systems, and these solutions are important for managing and consolidating key master data objects such as Product, Customer, Supplier, Site, and Financial data that can bring real business value in a fraction of the time. Master Data Management is the key. It fixes the data quality problem on the operational side of the business and augments the data warehouse on the analytical side of the business.

We used the Customer Hub solution from Oracle and managed to take in individual customer, their relationships, complex entities, vendor within a 12 months period covering a significant amount of customer source systems. We had challenges with non-profit organizations where a unique ID had to be created. Also, the physical model behind the OCH is not aligned to industry standards which increased our efforts to align it to our models for regulatory reporting.

In my experience SAP NetWeaver is an amazing tool for processing the customer's orders. It has a lot of great features, just to mention one of those features, the customer's payment method options(credit card & Invoice) are really good to get accommodate to the customer's budget. If the customer wants to pay within 30, 45 or 60 days, there is an option to select whichever the customer request is. Even if the customer wants to pay within the next fiscal year(if they got it approved by the company), you can select a special option and then enter the specific date the customer will pay. It's really amazing how SAP get adjusted as any special request.
