Overview
Stibo Systems is a Danish master data management (MDM) vendor whose STEP platform (Stibo Systems Enterprise Platform) centralises, governs and distributes product, customer, supplier and location data across the enterprise. It is positioned as a multidomain MDM platform, meaning a single system can resolve and manage several data domains at once rather than requiring separate tools per domain.
STEP models data as a semantic data graph, where every entity is a node with typed, directional relationships, configurable hierarchies and attribute inheritance. The platform provides data sourcing, modeling, quality, governance, compliance and delivery capabilities, along with workflow and stewardship tools to enforce data policies. STEP runs as a cloud-native, multi-tenant SaaS product on Microsoft Azure.
For ERP customers, Stibo Systems acts as the system of record for master data that feeds into and pulls from ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle and Microsoft Dynamics, replacing manual or point-to-point master data syncing with a governed hub. It connects through a library of 100+ prebuilt connectors covering ERP, CRM, PIM, analytics and cloud data platforms, including SAP-certified iDoc-based connectors for material, customer and vendor master data.
