Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Collibra, Informatica and others in Data Governance."Collibra Governance is a stable solution."
"I find the metadata feature valuable because it replaces the coding."
"Workflow is very helpful and assessment are good features. I really like the structure of this solution and how it is compartmentalized."
"It helps us build a powerful workflow mechanism where there can be any stewardship, including issue management governing assets using policies, regulations, or business rules."
"The most valuable feature is the Technical Lineage. The fact that you can trace the auditability of a particular field or attribute across various systems is very useful."
"We use the solution's Data Stewardship part."
"As far as the functionality of the tool is concerned, it's pretty slick."
"The solution's most valuable features are its scalability and how it can be integrated to any other intakes."
"It is a very professional product. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The UI is good if you happen to be an administrator and are familiar with the technical side of the administration. If you're a business user, the UI is not good. It is hard to learn. It is hard for those who are administering it to teach to end-users and it can take hours of training to do it. Because it is difficult and non-intuitive, business users resist using it. It is a battle to get them on board and to keep them engaged because of the UI."
"Certain implementations, including lineage maps, could be user-friendly."
"The licensing is one area that could get improved."
"Recently, I find that the default process of issue management in Collibra is really complex — It wasn't really helpful to us."
"The solution's metadata management is pretty novice and could be improved."
"One problem is the data lineage, especially extracting the ETL transformation from different ETL tools and identifying how the data is getting changed from one layer to different layers and how the transformation is applied. It doesn't support all the ETL tools for extracting the transformation logic. It supports some of the tools, but there are still some tools that need to be supported. There is also a small pain point in terms of integration. There is a little bit of change in their strategy from Collibra's end. Earlier, they used to offer two solutions. One was out of the box, and one was a custom-built solution for which they used to provide a dual connector. Now the focus from the Collibra side is more on using the out of the box connector. They are discouraging doing the custom integration. That leaves us with two problems. The first problem is that the out-of-the-box connecter is not yet enabled for a lot of systems, and the second problem is that the out-of-the-box connecter has certain limitations. If we want to tweak those as per our needs, it is not possible. However, the custom-built is still supported, and you can still build a custom integration by using the API, but it is not very encouraged by Collibra. Its dashboard also needs to be improved. There are options to use the HTML code to customize your dashboard, but it has a lot of limitations."
"From a usability perspective, customers usually find some areas of the solution a bit complex. It takes a long time for the customers to get used to the UI and the interface."
"There are certain processes that involve a lot of manual work, specifically when searching for attributes assignment. It would be better if we could do this via APIs."
"In today's time, to be competitive, the solution's price should be lowered."
