Data Management Consultant working on the configuration and roll out of Collibra.
What do you like best about the product?
I find the Customer Support is responds in a very timely manner.
I find it is very easy to relate the core offerings of the platform to key business issues and propose Collibra as the tool that can solve these issues and thus generate value through cost savings.
The documentation makes it very easy to understand what is required for the technical implementation of the platform and integration of it with multiple different data sources.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. Inaccessible Language
- I find some of the language used within the Collibra tool adds a barrier to rolling it out successfully as it doesn't seem particularly intuitive to me.
]2. Navigation UI/UX
- I find that the biggest barrier to target consumers on site being satisfied with Collibra is navigation. Countless times I hear employees have entered the tool and it has not been intuitive enough for them to find what they want, thus they leave.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate Collibra Data Intelligence Platform a 10.
Workflows and data quality increase productivity with efficient automation
What is our primary use case?
I work with Collibra Data Intelligence Platform. I am experienced in both platforms, but more experienced with Collibra Data Intelligence Platform. I have experience creating workflows, harvesting technical lineage, and working with Data Governance along with data quality.
What is most valuable?
The workflows in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform are unique as no other Data Governance tool has this feature. The data quality functionality provides cutting-edge, next-level insights when compared to other tools such as Alation and Microsoft Purview. In governance, Collibra Data Intelligence Platform has an upper hand.
The mapping features in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform allow users to import and export Excel files. While importing Excel files, users can map to numerous assets. We can build relations using these imports and mappings, and obtain lineage information. Additionally, there is integration between Data Quality and the data intelligence platform, which enables another type of mapping.
The workflows in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform save substantial time by allowing us to create and assign tasks to business stewards and stakeholders. Instead of sending emails each day, we can create tasks that automatically generate notifications to streamline the process.
What needs improvement?
The main advantage of Purview is its integration with Microsoft solutions. Data can be harvested from any solution within Azure, data fabric, or other platforms easily with Purview. 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. Additionally, Purview includes data products, which Collibra Data Intelligence Platform is currently introducing. For stakeholders, data products are crucial.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the solution for three years, precisely two years and ten months. This July it will be three years. I started as a fresher in Data Governance and have been working in this field since the beginning.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I have not experienced any downtime or stability issues until now.
How are customer service and support?
I have not had any experience working with AI governance-related API. I am satisfied with their support team. I encountered some issues with data quality initially in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform, and they resolved those issues. I also faced challenges with establishing data quality rules in DQC aggregation files, which were resolved by the support team.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
There were no blockers during setup. It was straightforward to create workflows and deploy them into Collibra Data Intelligence Platform by following the documentation.
What other advice do I have?
Data quality in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform involves six dimensions: accuracy, completeness, integrity, and timeliness. The platform's Data Quality encompasses all these aspects.
Task completion time depends on the specific tasks in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform. For example, an approval task typically takes less than one hour.
Collibra Data Intelligence Platform introduced AI governance approximately two years ago. It features assessments that work in conjunction with AI governance, where users answer questions created by stakeholders or Data Owners.
I rate this solution 8 out of 10.
It's a great tool for Data Cataloging.

Collibra Is Great… But…
What do you like best about the product?
Business Term, Metrics and Reporting Catalog. We can now house this info in one platform vs our previous way of keeping data in Excel, Sharepoint slides, multiple areas. Our business users are pleased with the fact that they can now have one place to search for reports vs asking other business users - was very time consuming.
What do you dislike about the product?
The technical lineage views and diagram views are very confusing for users. It’s hard to view the end to end because of how many nodes there may be.
Confusing for users to understand business lineage vs technical lineage.
Confusing for users to understand business lineage vs technical lineage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business units were struggling to find data and information. Collibra has helped by decreasing time between DG and business answering these questions since catalog is now available.
Developers would use metrics incorrectly because of different calculations but now have information available in Collibra on how and when to use metrics.
Users had to spend so much time searching for reports but can now search in catalog.
Lineage is helpful for developers when trying to understand source of information

Great overall data cataloging tool
What do you like best about the product?
The search capability. It is so nice having the capability of global search and being able to find exactly what I’m looking for. It saves so much time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Data classification is not as sophisticated as I was led to believe. It appears to be column name and regex based. I thought it was more sophisticated and used AI to identify patterns, etc.

Collibra in Practice: Governing Data at Scale
What do you like best about the product?
Centralized data governance: everything is consolidated in one place, which makes search, documentation, and traceability much easier.
Business glossary: extremely useful to align technical and business teams around a common language.
Customizable workflows: practical for managing validation steps and governance processes.
Integration with other tools (ETL, BI, technical catalogs, etc.): helps build a real ecosystem around data.
Customizable Metamodal: relationships between objects (datasets, reports, rules, policies, etc.): provides good visibility into the data value chain
