Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The GUI interface is nice and easy to use."
"The automation process is very strong."
"The product's most valuable features are cataloging and classification."
"The most important feature is the ease of use."
"This solution is user friendly and offers multiple functionalities. It operates like a kind of a repository that allows you to find anything about a particular data set or field."
"The solution's most valuable features are its scalability and how it can be integrated to any other intakes."
"Collibra Governance's most valuable features are data lineage and stewardships."
"We use the solution's Data Stewardship part."
"I like the lineage feature the most because I don't think there's any other tool that actually depicts the data flow from multiple sources and the connectivities between every data element inside those sources."
 

Cons

"The product was not able to meet our 10 second refresh requirements."
"There was an issue with the incremental aggregation not working as indicated."
"The organization of the icons is not saved across users."
"It should have more integrations with things like CyberArk because its main purpose is GDPR implementation. We have to have more scope for things that implement more privacy. CyberArk makes sure your credentials are vaulted and your things are secure when you're creating your integrations or connecting to an application. I do believe that they are working on this feature."
"They could simplify the platform's setup and design process. It requires significant IT involvement and expertise, which can be a barrier for smaller organizations."
"When you have a huge amount of hierarchical data to manage, the solution's performance tends to decrease."
"The solution's data lineage is a little difficult and will not support all the source systems on the database."
"This solution could be improved with the the addition of process diagrams to help the many users of the platform understand all the fields."
"Pricing policy of the product is an area with certain shortcomings that needs improvement."
"There should be more detailed documentation on the selectors and certain information, and a reduction in cost as compared to other tools."
"Occasionally we get little bugs that occur, however, this is typical."

"Collibra Governance is an expensive solution."
