Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I find the rule modification and the replication of the rules in Collibra happens very quickly."
"Collibra is very good at talking to modern database systems like a normal RDBMS, a DB2, or a SQL server or an Oracle."
"The most valuable features of Collibra are the workflows and the data lineage capabilities."
"The most important feature is the ease of use."
"Workflows is the most valuable feature of Collibra because we will typically use an interface for it and we can customize it as per our needs."
"Collibra Governance's most valuable features are data lineage and stewardships."
"Workflow is very helpful and assessment are good features. I really like the structure of this solution and how it is compartmentalized."
"In terms of data governance, as I mentioned, it can be a one-stop solution for all of your data governance needs."
"All features available are good."
"What I appreciate the most is its user-friendliness."
"The tool's most valuable feature is restriction."
"Instead of manually tagging data, Immuta’s auto-discovery capability identifies sensitive information, such as country labels, gender information, and other personal data."
 

Cons

"The platform can sometimes be unstable, particularly in terms of speed and reconnection issues."
"The connectors for metadata ingestion need to be improved."
"Recently, I find that the default process of issue management in Collibra is really complex — It wasn't really helpful to us."
"Sometimes, if a client needs a specific customization, we cannot do it directly. The client needs to reach out to Collibra and request the customization."
"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."
"Pricing policy of the product is an area with certain shortcomings that needs improvement."
"There are certain limitations and difficulties regarding the migration of complex data quality rules, as the tool may struggle with lengthy calculations and longer loading times."
"The solution's metadata management is pretty novice and could be improved."
"We have had some challenges with their support when we were migrating to the cloud version. We we had some issues, and it took us several attempts to get a proper responses as part of that migration."
"There is room for improvement in enhancing the monitoring capabilities."
"The implementation process with Immuta was quite challenging, primarily due to issues related to database handling and the syncing of user groups."
"Immuta is behind in updating upgrades and software releases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think it is on a yearly basis, but I'm not involved with the pricing session, so I have no idea. There are several licenses for different models. You get one license per product, but a lot of features are controlled separately through different licenses. So, as and when you want to use a feature, you have to procure the license for that feature."
"Generally, it is a rather expensive solution compared to some other tools in the market, but I found it to be fair-priced for its capabilities."
"Many of our customers I spoke to felt that the solution is a bit highly-priced."
"Collibra provides you with a license based on the subscription model that you purchase."
"Collibra Governance is an expensive solution."
"The product's pricing is high, which its comprehensive features and capabilities may justify."
"I am not so much aware of price details. Initially, there was an add-on NuSoft license to use the DVC connector that NuSoft gives to create integrations, but Collibra is now phasing out of it slowly. Collibra is cutting ties with them is what we have been led to believe, and we have started developing on Spring Boot, which is open source."
"There are different levels of licenses. For example, some users can only do read-only licenses, and others have the stewardship license where they can give access to users."
"Immuta's pricing is expensive."
