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.

A seamless all-in-one solution
This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything. With other solutions, you'll need a separate platform for data ingestion, manipulation, etc. Then you'll need another tool for reporting. Palantir Gotham literally does it all. It generates a report regardless of the format. It can seamlessly generate it after the data has been collected.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It shows how the data was transformed on the way and how the solutions were derived, and any stakeholder in the company can see a very detailed visualization of the path of the data from the row to the report or the dataset to which machine learning was applied, for example."
"The customization and the dashboards are pretty good."
"Collibra provides a good view of where my data is, the type of data we have across the landscape, how it's getting utilized, the quality in terms of correct calibration, and whether the integrity is uniform across the landscape."
"On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate Collibra Data Intelligence Platform a 10."
"The catalog feature is definitely valuable because it makes ingesting the metadata of any application quite simple."
"The most important feature in Collibra Governance is the ability to gather data or a collection of data into one repository. If a client creates a repository at his place, then it will get updated to the cloud automatically."
"The automation process is very strong."
"I rate the technical support from Collibra as nine out of ten."
"This solution is seamless. From one platform, we can do just about anything."
 

Cons

"Connectivity with different applications could be improved."
"With Collibra Data Intelligence Platform, users need to create and establish connections, which requires entering connection details. This process is more time-consuming in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform compared to Purview, where everything can be done in minutes."
"The Collibra interface is not very user-friendly because it has a lot of features that business users find difficult to navigate."
"When you have a huge amount of hierarchical data to manage, the solution's performance tends to decrease."
"I think they can bring a few more features and align better with other quality products."
"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."
"Many other tools like Collibra Governance give you the option to actually see the data in the tool, which is not an option in Collibra."
"Scalability also needs improvement in the solution."
"I think there should be less coding involved. Currently, using it involves a tremendous amount of coding."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Collibra Catalog is fairly priced - I would rate their pricing seven out of ten."
"I think they have a trust issue. I did not like the way they recently went through the process. They were like, "Finish this SOW first, only then will we sign the other SOW." Or, "Finish this code." I didn't like that much."
"Collibra offers a per-user licensing model."
"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."
"Collibra provides you with a license based on the subscription model that you purchase."
"Collibra Governance is an expensive solution."
"Collibra Governance is expensive - I would rate its pricing as one out of five."
"Collibra is a bit expensive."
