Facilitates data quality monitoring and AI governance with a complete suite of tools

When I initially started with Collibra, it was just a data cataloging platform with governance workflows around it. Now they have acquired a lot of other tools, or they have merged or acquired different platforms. It is a complete suite of tools for managing data. We can monitor data quality and take actions on the profiling results obtained by running data quality checks. Collibra helps catalog data assets, monitor the health of data assets, and take necessary actions. If we find data quality issues, it also provides a medium to capture those issues and how to remediate them. The workflows allow the creation of custom workflows based on needs. The newest addition in their tool suite is AI governance, which allows cataloging all AI models currently deployed or even in the pre-production stage. It helps document model meanings and the risks involved, thus managing all risks related to AI deployments.

Easy integration and workflow proposals streamline processes

The predefined connectors eliminate the need to write code for connectivity. If you have a predefined connector, it is easy to use with plug and play functionality. The processing time and ease of use are significant benefits. As everyone is moving into AI integration, it will definitely help. When creating workflows, they can propose solutions directly.

"Collibra Catalog has significantly enhanced data governance and compliance for our team, primarily through its valuable feature of endpoint lineage enabling visual representation of the data."

"The workflows allow the creation of custom workflows based on needs."

"Collibra Catalog is simple to use and user-friendly for those who are not technically inclined since it is easy to find while also easy to see data lineage diagrams."

Cons

"More automation and artificial intelligence involvement are necessary. Reducing required employee involvement and enhancing ease of use are vital."

"The tool's overall functionalities need to improve since, nowadays, many tools, from a business perspective, are easy to use."

"I'd like to see more integration with other reporting sources."

"Collibra Catalog could improve its automation to increase the efficiency of the software."

"There is an issue with Collibra Catalog's pricing model, especially for organizations with many databases, as the initial package comes with a limited number of connectors."

"A key area for improvement in Collibra Catalog lies in its integration capabilities, particularly with a broader range of sources."

"One of the very key drawbacks is that automation for access provisioning is not available. If I discover a data set or data product in the marketplace and want to access the data, this feature doesn't exist at all."

"In Collibra Catalog, the main area that has room for improvement is the search functionality. It should be more natural language oriented instead of searching for exact names."

More Collibra Catalog cons

"The improvement area could be possible if the tool provides better integration capabilities with other ecosystems, including governance tools or data cataloging tools, as it is currently an area where the solution is lacking."

"To complete the pipeline, they might want to include some connectors which would put the data into different platforms. This would be helpful."

"I am looking forward to seeing the expansion of the source range for their data loader product."

"The tool's lineage is very weak."

"The product must enhance its near-real-time data capture feature."

"Matillion’s on-premises capabilities don’t allow you to build something customized."

"Going forward, I would like them to add custom jobs, since we still have to run these outside of Matillion."

"In the next release, we would like to have connections to more databases."

More Matillion Data Productivity Cloud cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Collibra offers a per-user licensing model."

"Collibra Catalog is fairly priced - I would rate their pricing seven out of ten."

"I think they can bring a few more features and align better with other quality products."

"The product is highly priced compared to other vendors."

"The pricing depends on what edition the customer opts for. For example, the standard edition is priced at $2.00 per credit. And you are only charged when you use it. You're not charged when it's idle."

"The solution's pricing is not based on the licensing cost but on the running hours when the Matillion instance is up and running."

"The AWS pricing and licensing are a cost-effective solution for data integration needs."

"Purchasing it through the AWS Marketplace is pretty convenient. There is a little bit of back and forth in terms of the licensing based on the machine size, but it seems to have worked out well. it is convenient to have it all as part of our AWS billing."

"A rough estimation of the cost is around 20,000 dollars a month, however, this is dependent on the machine used and how Matillion ETL is used."

"It is not necessarily a cheap solution. However, it's reasonable priced, especially with the smaller machines that we run it on."

"The cost of the solution is high and could be reduced."

"The prices needs to be lower."
