Good understanding, and knowing the background and reasoning of each component. The Voice and the Transcript needs to be corrected as wrong words whichc has no meaning,are appearing in the transcript. A reading material or slides, pdf, needs to be shared for reference to the participant.

There are no slides to download. There is too much jargon , and kind of difficult to follow. There is more "why" than "how" . The person who bought this course might have already known "why" MDM is important. It should be brief, and less repetitive. Examples of "how" MDM is done would have made this course better

The course gave a good high-level overview of concepts but the presentation is a bit dry. It could have used some more use cases or examples. Also, one of the files appears to no longer be available and the description for the course made no mention of having to purchase an extra exam.

1. Monotonous, mostly readout of slides with limited additional insights / commentary 2. Content is very high level, good for high level familiarization of the topics and terminology 3. Visuals are pretty much non-existent 4. Despite the mention on the first slide of pretty much every module, there are no quizzes, you have to buy them externally outside Udemy
By William Vitucci on 5/4/2020
Pretty much someone reading text off of slides. Limited infographics and many of those used were very small and hard to read. Voice transcription is very bad -- it garbles key words - e.g. "Monster" versus "Master," "Dada" versus "Data," "MTM" versus "MDM" making the closed captioning and transcript almost useless. There are inaccuracies in the content (e.g. FAA is the Federal Aviation Administration, not the Federal Aviation Association).

It is good introductory course, and cloud have more real examples to explain. There is no readable material with the course, please provide comprehensive readable materiel such as case studies. The presenter was good and sped was of delivery was quite understandable.

This course is useful introduction to key MDM concepts and overall I would recommend the course. However, I did find it a little boring as it is mainly slides being read by an audio voiceover, so there is little interaction during the learning.

If you are new to MDM then this course gives you a good understanding of the MDM basics and help you understand the impact of a Mature MDM policy on your companies bottomline , and also for more advanced MDM practitioners it helps them bust through some of the common misunderstandings & Myths associated with MDM
By Nishikant Cadambi on 9/12/2015
I know a lot might find this boring, but trust me it implants serious foundations in MDM. No wonder MDM success rates are very low , I bet most of them over emphasize the MDM product and lack the fundamentals to question business processes- exactly what this course imparts
