What problems is IBM InfoSphere Master Data Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

Establish a single data store for customer, address, product and account info. It also provides a solid foundation for best practice integrations. Many customers do not finish installing mdm as they had planned. When they do, it's easy to see the benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
