User-friendly and stable data management ensuring data quality and maintaining data governance standards
We primarily use it for data-related tasks, focusing on assessing and enhancing the quality and integrity of our data. Our typical dataset size falls within the range of one to five gigabytes. We employ the platform for tasks such as data mapping and data transformation One of the most…

Robust data cataloging and governance, yet its rebranding and integration changes may cause initial confusion among users
It is designed to seamlessly connect to various data sources, which is particularly beneficial for our customers who primarily use Microsoft technologies. These sources include Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, Synapse Workspace, and other platforms that Purview natively supports. Data cataloging is a fundamental feature of Purview, allowing users to organize and manage their data assets effectively. It also offers powerful lineage capabilities, enabling users to trace data from its source systems to the reporting layer. While there are some limitations in supporting end-to-end lineage for certain assets, Purview excels in automating lineage for supported assets such as Azure Data Factory and Synapse pipelines. Another valuable feature of Purview is its glossary terms functionality. Recently, we completed a project for a customer who was migrating their data dictionary from SharePoint to Purview's data catalog. This migration allowed them to seamlessly connect glossary terms to their ingested data assets, enhancing their data management and governance capabilities significantly.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The notable aspect lies in the workflow structure, where building the workflow aligns significantly with data governance."
"The product’s important feature is data profiling and quality check."
"The ease of use of the user console is valuable."
"The drag-and-drop feature is incredibly flexible and straightforward."
"The desktop version of the solution was particularly valuable to me, primarily for creating components. We opted for the data quality aspect to assess the quality of our data warehouse. The functionalities available allowed us to not only check data quality but also serve as an ETL tool. This versatility enabled data transformation and storage in various formats, including files on platforms like SharePoint or local online directories. The flexibility of the tool catered to the specific needs of those building components, contributing to our desired outcomes."
"Microsoft Purview is scalable."
"Purview helps mitigate risk and allows us to govern the information being shared among apps and devices."
"The time to onboard is pretty short."
"The product has helped us save both time and money."
"The user interface is highly intuitive and user-friendly."
"Instead of having to manually write down which tables and columns exist and then describe them, you can do that process in one go, by simply connecting to a source. That's a huge time-saver and a great benefit of Purview."
"The custom classifications are one of the most valuable features."
"It starts off with records management, insider risk management, and information protection. And there is the discovery of the clouds, and we can get analytics on that as well, so that we know which user is using which cloud application and for how much time. The Activity explorer tells us which user was transferring out what data at what moment and on which device, including the serial number."
 

Cons

"There is a notable challenge in having to provide detailed filters before the site recognizes the search criteria."
"Data movement is a pain."
"Speaking specifically about the version we use, version 12.3, I'm unsure if this has been addressed in subsequent versions. One improvement I'd like to see pertains to the language used in certain components, especially in data quality checks. The language complexity posed a challenge for beginners. Although we had on-site assistance from Ataccama, making it manageable for us, some individuals found it difficult to comprehend, necessitating additional support. The provision of a comprehensive guide for on-premise installation can also be enhanced. The lack of detailed information on the solution's workings and the overwhelming nature of notifications, with extensive content, were areas of concern. Streamlining the notification content in newer versions would significantly expedite issue resolution."
"I believe it would be beneficial if it could enhance its flexibility to connect with a wider range of downstream systems beyond just Excel and Postgres."
"It is complicated to fetch 20-25 reports when we profile the data."
"I would like to have AI functionality on the dashboard to help me analyze and report on the data that we capture using Purview on a daily basis."
"There are some limitations with regard to the lineage of data from different parts of the system."
"The product must provide better integrations with OS X and iOS."
"Support should be improved in the form of good documentation and video lessons where a person can check things out. There is a community, but it takes a lot of time if we want to get an answer to a question."
"Two features are unsupported—custom insights and the DLP component—that would be beneficial to me as a consultant and for the customer in terms of security and monitoring. Regarding security, DLP would provide a more granular level of data masking. Custom insights would offer more detailed monitoring and alerts that can notify customers of failures or anything requiring urgent action."
"As Microsoft Purview got a little more mature, the deployments got a little more complex, as we were kind of seeing that there are a lot of ways, like there were a hundred ways to do one thing or less."
"he one thing it doesn't do is data quality."
"I'd like to see them improve the training for implementing this type of solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Despite not being extremely low-cost, the pricing appears reasonable, making it a profitable and viable choice for companies that prioritize data security and adhere to specific policies."
"Our licensing model wasn't user-specific; instead, we paid fees for the engine and maintenance. As we didn't have a support contract, maintenance fees were likely nonexistent. Regarding the upgrade, we had an account for the initial two or three years, and considering the features provided by the solution, the pricing was reasonable."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"Purview is included in our Microsoft E5 licensing."
"I consider it cost-efficient because of the metrics it provides."
"I would rate the cost of Microsoft Purview a six out of ten with ten being the most expensive."
"Aside from the complexity of the pricing model, the price itself is realistic. Features like AI components and automatic classification require additional licenses. Still, anyone can start using Purview with a basic E3 license if they're using Microsoft 365 and grow with additional licenses as needed. Overall, we're satisfied with the price."
"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention is not cheap."
"The categorization within the licensing could be improved. There are a lot of solutions within Microsoft Purview. If the licensing could be a bit clearer and the solutions could be better categorized according to function and across multiple environments, that would be excellent. The licensing is very confusing."
"The price is reasonable considering its value."
"Purview's price is pretty high when you factor in storage costs."
