Pros
"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 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's best feature is the data quality checker.""We have had no complaints about the stability.""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."

"Qlik Compose is good enough. It is user-friendly and intuitive.""As long as you pick the solution that best fits with your requirements, you won't find that performance is a problem. It's good.""I have found it to be a very good, stable, and strong product.""It can scale.""It is a scalable solution.""There were many valuable features, such as extracting any data to put in the cloud. For example, Qlik was able to gather data from SAP and extract SAP data from the platforms.""One of the most valuable features was the ability to integrate multiple source systems that mainly used structured IDBMS versions.""The technical support is very good. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."

Cons
"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.""Collibra Catalog could improve its automation to increase the efficiency of the software.""The tool's overall functionalities need to improve since, nowadays, many tools, from a business perspective, are easy to use."

More Collibra Catalog Cons →

"It could enhance its capabilities in the realm of self-service options as currently, it is more suited for individuals with technical proficiency who can create pages using it.""There should be proper documentation available for the implementation process.""There could be more customization options.""Qlik's ETL and data transformation could be better.""For more complex work, we are not using Qlik Compose because it cannot handle very high volumes at the moment. It needs the same batching capabilities that other ETL tools have. We can't batch the data into small chunks when transforming large amounts of data. It tries to do everything in one shot and that's where it fails.""The solution has room for improvement in the ETL. They have an ETL, but when it comes to the monitoring portion, Qlik Compose doesn't provide a feature for monitoring.""When processing data from certain tables with a large volume of data, we encounter significant delays. For instance, when dealing with around one million records, it typically takes three to four hours. To address this, I aim to implement performance improvements across all tables, ensuring swift processing similar to those that are currently complete within seconds. The performance issue primarily arises when we analyze the inserts and updates from the source, subsequently dropping the table. While new insertions are handled promptly, updates are processed slowly, leading to performance issues. Despite consulting our Qlik vendors, they were unable to pinpoint the exact cause of this occurrence. Consequently, I am seeking ways to optimize performance within Qlik Compose, specifically concerning updates.""I believe that visual data flow management and the transformation function should be improved."
