Data governance has transformed business glossaries and now drives AI-ready insights
I think it's a great platform. Searching can be made a little better. The data marketplace which it provides is also great, but sometimes when we are searching an element and we know we are not sure if we can find it or if we have missed it. Listing data domains in one place for quick visibility will be an add-on. I am not a hardcore coder. For a coder to create workflows and automate the process, I needed to learn Groovy script and create some workflows. In the automation part, I think it can also introduce a low-code, no-code platform where we can connect different connectors and we can quickly create some automated workflows, if at basic level only, because the next big thing is automation and AI. Low-code, no-code platforms are being used by everyone. I think that will be useful. When I look for a data domain, I'm not able to find it very quickly. For a business owner to know data domains and search data domains, it could be made a little easier. Also, the automation part needs improvement. We are only able to enter the data manually or connect to a data source, but now we want to create some workflows as well. That's why I've chosen a rating of eight. Otherwise, it's really great.

Data discovery has transformed analyst autonomy and now needs better bulk editing and UI control
The first improvement I would like for data.world Enterprise is an improvement in communication with users. Most times, new versions roll out without prior information to users, and even though frequent updates respond to issues, they often introduce new bugs. It would be beneficial to send out notifications to users whenever an update is coming, either via email or in-app, so that they can prepare and expect changes. I also find that some areas of the product interface are overly complex, and interface customization needs improvement for users to choose where buttons should be and the layout they prefer. Another improvement needed is the absence of a bulk edit feature in the platform itself. For example, when searching for data and needing to do some edits, you cannot do bulk edits within data.world Enterprise. Instead, you have to export and make your changes in a Python or SQL environment, or use Excel to validate and edit before importing the dataset back for analysis. If data.world Enterprise could incorporate a data-wrangling tool on its service, allowing changes to be made directly, that would be a great improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have found that Collibra Catalog is very easy to use."
"Gartner identifies Collibra Catalog as the leader, which aligns with our observations."
"The data quality functionality provides cutting-edge, next-level insights when compared to other tools such as Alation and Microsoft Purview."
"I definitely think Collibra is the gold standard in terms of combining user experience with the actual capabilities."
"Collibra Platform has had a positive impact on structure, transparency, and alignment around data in my organization."
"The diagram showing the limits is absolutely magnificent."
"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."
"I would recommend Collibra Governance depending on the needs of the company."
"Sharing and collaboration have significantly impacted our workflow, as we decided to document each product on data.world Enterprise, providing easy access to everyone, eliminating the need to switch platforms for saving documentation, making it easier for users to access rather than using specific Word files and sharing them on SharePoint."
"Previously, it would take up to three weeks to onboard a new analyst, but now within five working days, we can complete the onboarding process."
 

Cons

"The company strategy is also, honestly, infantile compared to a lot of companies."
"Scalability also needs improvement in the solution."
"The initial setup requires more of a trial and error approach and there isn't too much documentation available to help you figure things out."
"A key area for improvement in Collibra Catalog lies in its integration capabilities, particularly with a broader range of sources."
"Collibra Lineage could improve connectively. If they can offer more out-of-the-box connectors, which come as in a package compared to you having to go and buy a lot in the marketplace for certain specific connectors."
"I think Collibra Platform could be improved with a simpler UI for business users, faster search capabilities, and better performance for large metadata volumes."
"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."
"Collibra gives a lot of facilities in the cloud, but achieving those facilities on-prem becomes a big challenge"
"There should be improvements in ease of use."
"Most times, new versions roll out without prior information to users, and even though frequent updates respond to issues, they often introduce new bugs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Collibra is a bit expensive."
"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."
"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."
"Many of our customers I spoke to felt that the solution is a bit highly-priced."
"Collibra offers a per-user licensing model."
"It is substantial, and we do pay yearly."
"I would say it's probably in line with what other vendors charge for licensing."
"Collibra Governance is an expensive solution."
