Top Dynamics 365 Master Data Solutions
When evaluating master data management tools for Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O/SCM ERP, two notable options are Profisee and STAEDEAN. If you're looking for an MDM solution that minimizes complexity while maximizing accuracy and efficiency, STAEDEAN's Master Data Management Solution is the clear choice. Here’s how it compares to Profisee's MDM platform.
STAEDEAN MDM Versus Profisee MDM
Pros
Improves data quality in the ERP: STAEDEAN’s MDM solution allows users to improve data quality by adding data quality rules, run duplicate checks, periodic data quality assessments, and connect with external web services that can validate and auto-populate data. Additionally, managers can be assigned fields for approval in the workflow functionality prior to publishing the record as a master data record.
Secure: You can lock fields for editing or limit access using the Dynamic Field Security feature ensuring sensitive information is secure.
Flexible: Our solution allows you to add warnings or block the record when there is a data quality error. Additionally, it is easy to turn a rule/workflow on and turn off based on changing business requirements.
Ease of Use: As our solution is embedded within Microsoft Dynamics 365, integration is easier and faster.
Cost-Effective for Dynamics 365 ERP Users: Cost-effective pricing and options to extend functionalities with an add-on solution for data integration, data imports and exports, security and auditing, and EDI.
Centralized and decentralized MDM: Our solution offers the flexibility to manage master data centrally or decentrally based on your use cases.
Cons
Functionalities restricted to Dynamics 365: STAEDEAN’s Master Data Management Solution has been built for Microsoft Dynamics and data quality rules, master data management, and workflows work within Dynamics 365. However, master data can be distributed to systems and applications outside D365 F&SCM using STAEDEAN’s MDM solution.
Lack of analytics capabilities: STAEDEAN’s MDM software does not offer any analytics capabilities.

Pros
Real-time analysis: Based on customer reviews, Profisee MDM provides features for data engineering, handles both structured and semi-structured data efficiently and performs real time analysis. The platform provides a variety of graphic options ranging from simple charts to complicated graphs, allowing users to show data in the most effective manner.
Integrates with several systems: Profisee MDM is an independent system that offers ETL capabilities (extract, transform, load) from multiple data sources including integrations with databases, enterprise systems, analytics repositories, and the Microsoft ecosystem.
An app for data stewardship: The online FastApp portal offers users an interface to scan data, identify errors, and fix them. Profisee FastApp allows users to configure their own Azure OpenAI tenant to leverage AI for building complex filters with natural-language prompts.
Cons
Cost Concerns: Profisee MDM is an independent cloud or on-premises solution that requires storage to function which automatically increases the cost of the MDM software.
Limited Workflow functionality: The functionality aims at facilitating error management. The feature includes matching, address verification, business rules, and task generation. But if you need to create a workflow for specific systems such as Microsoft Dynamics 365, you cannot do that using the MDM solution. However, Profisee MDM allows you to integrate with other workflow tools.
Only centralized MDM: Profisee Master Data Management and the FastApp functionality offers the means to manage master data centrally within the system. Independent teams cannot manage specific data decentrally using Profisee MDM.
Implementation time: Although Profisee offers a 90-day implementation promise, a lot of online reviews mention that they were able to add a second domain in the second year of using the solution.
Analysis can be time-consuming: Based on online customer reviews, mastering complex analysis and calculations can take some time.
Why Choose STAEDEAN MDM over Profisee MDM?
- Cost effective, no code solution embedded within Microsoft Dynamics 365
- Extendable functionality for Data Integration & Security
- Allows you to make D365 F&SCM as your single source of truth
