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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Collibra Catalog's best feature is the data quality checker."
"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 data lineage capability is valuable as it shows how different sources are connected and how data flows, which is crucial for projects like migrations. Moreover, data lineage visualization in Collibra Catalog aids our data governance initiatives."
"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."
"The workflows allow the creation of custom workflows based on needs."
"We have had no complaints about the stability."
"Except for data quality, everything is perfect."
"The basic tools are easy to pick up and understand."
"The solution can run on any machine and that is a big advantage."
"I like the way that you can use the context variables, and how you can work those context variables to give you values and settings for every development environment, such as PROD, TEST, and DEV."
"I think Talend is one of the easiest tools for faster implementation compared to other tools."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"The process of upgrading the software is quite easy."
"The features that I like the most are the simplicity of the interface, and the ability to quickly develop with a predefined component."
"Overall, the management and running environment are very stable, and I would rate it an eight out of ten."
 

Cons

"If it can become more user-intuitive and work on integrating with communication platforms like Slack or Teams, it would significantly help business users."
"If the price is a bit reduced, that would be better."
"I'd like to see more integration with other reporting sources."
"A key area for improvement in Collibra Catalog lies in its integration capabilities, particularly with a broader range of sources."

"The tool's overall functionalities need to improve since, nowadays, many tools, from a business perspective, are easy to use."
"We'd like to see more connectors it the future."
"I wonder if, at the same price, the API component could be added, which would be beneficial."
"Performance and speed could be improved."

"The stability is good, but the performance is slower when I work on a huge amount of data."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is on a per-user basis. It's a little more expensive than other tools. There aren't any additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"The licensing cost is about 40,000 Euros a year."
