"The Challenge Of Handling Data In SAP MDG – A Solid, But Thorny System."
4/5
What do you like best about SAP Master Data Governance (MDG)?

What made SAP MDG extraordinary is that it brings together our entire master data in one place which helps to avoid any potential discrepancies of key information types including sites, customers, vendors, materials etc. Navigation through process became more simplified as operations are processed in a single system in comparison to it being in separate systems. The business processes are automated so, the approval process can be efficiently carried out with less time and energy spending as as well as allows full control over the quality of the data. And the most important thing is that this system ui is straightforward, so it specificed it easy to understand. What I do find pleasing is the possibility to impose data compliance standards in the mobile device through mandatory design frameworks with inbuilt validation rules thus giving one greater confidence in the data they are dealing in.

What do you dislike about SAP Master Data Governance (MDG)?

The part I could define as a burden of the SAP MDG is its ‘implement’ part because it was so hard to go about implementing. Too much time was spent, and actually like almost every feature had to be bent about so we can use it, then we still needed help from outside. Large datasets also produced various issues as the system often weakened and this was quite annoying.it, on the other hand, lead to interruption of our operations. The 3rd aspect which stood as a challenge was the learning curve especially in terms of non-technical people. As attested to by many users, the system was quite involved for management but was still there with time and manpower. At another place they state that user acceptance was almost 100% but quickly adds that changes are not welcome easily and have to be worked on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
