Enterprise Cloud and AI Security Architect at a security firm with 10,001+ employees
integrating AI features ensures excellent customer service and efficient data handling
Pros and Cons
- "The technical support from Collibra Governance is excellent, and I rate it as ten out of ten."
- "There is room for improvement in the Collibra Data Catalog regarding data classification and categorization. It struggles to catalog all categories of data, particularly sensitive data on-prem, which GCP Data Catalog handles better."
What is our primary use case?
I am an implementer working as an enterprise cloud and AI security architect. While working with BT clients from Accenture, they were using Collibra Governance on on-prem infrastructure and wanted to integrate it into Google Cloud Platform (GCP). We compared it with GCP's Data Catalog to determine which one was better.
What is most valuable?
One of the most impactful features of Collibra Governance is its cataloging of data. During my time with BT clients, we were able to efficiently catalog data on their on-prem infrastructure using Collibra Governance. The main feature of Collibra is the cataloging of data, which can be done effectively on any infrastructure. It can integrate with GCP's marketplace and maintain data consistency during cloud migrations.
What needs improvement?
There is room for improvement in the Collibra Data Catalog regarding data classification and categorization. It struggles to catalog all categories of data, particularly sensitive data on-prem, which GCP Data Catalog handles better. Additionally, pricing can be an issue if Collibra's existing features do not meet specific business requirements, necessitating integration with other data catalogs.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have around 1 to 1.5 years of experience working with Collibra Governance.
