Stibo Systems MDM

The product's flexibility and configurability stand out. Stibo Systems MDM adapts well to specific business requirements, allowing the platform to be tailored to different data domains and operating models rather than forcing rigid processes. In addition, its integration capabilities are strong, enabling effective connectivity with surrounding enterprise systems and supporting broader data and application ecosystems. For example, we have been able to configure domain-specific data models and approval workflows and integrate them seamlessly with downstream systems, such as point of sale, stock and waste, finance systems and digital channels (websites, ordering platforms, allergen guides) enabling consistent master data management while still meeting the differing needs of multiple business areas and departments. The platform's integration capabilities support effective connectivity across the wider application landscape

It's flexibility and scalability

One of the best features is the data modelling flexibility, which enabled us to tailor the system to our specific business needs. Another interesting point is the possibility of defining business rules and validations to ensure data completeness and accuracy, which is really important for maintaining high quality of product data. Another point to not underestimate is the strong support and the community, Stibo offers a community board where a large numbers of users are daily talking about every question related to the product, exchanging opinions and asking for solutions. There is also a training academy where you can get knowledge of the product. Once per year there is a worldwide event full of presentations made by experts.

The user experience is primarily optimised for desktop use, with limited support for mobile and tablet friendly interactions. This can be a constraint in hospitality and retail environments where operational and data stewardship activities may benefit from greater mobility. While the platform is functionally strong, the lack of a more responsive or mobile-optimised UX can reduce usability for users who need to review, approve or interact with master data away from a a traditional desktop setting.

first line support is not efficent or helpful. Once you get your case escalated and get in contact with the experts then it works really well

First, theres the learning curve, especially for new users or non-technical stakeholders. Even if the platform is powerful and highly configurable, this complexity can make onboarding and training time consuming. Additionally, some configurations and workflows require significant technical expertise or support from consultants. Lastly, the training content in the Academy could be improved.
