Excellent Data Quality Took
What do you like best about the product?
Sifflet is a great tool that helps us keep tabs on our Data Assets efficiently. After implementing the tool into our Infrastructure, we've been able to keep spot issues quickly and fix them immediately. We've seen a steady decline in end user complaints about missing or errornous data. With the excellent tool, the team behind it has also been nothing short of supportive and patient with any queries or questions we have.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside I see is that with the tool being quite fresh, a lot of changes stops the user from familiarising themselves with the product. But these changes make the product better in the long run...so not really a downside.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Spotting Issues in the Data Pipeline before it's visible by the Data End user
- Ensuring certain calculated metrics are propagated similarly along different branches in the pipeline

What do you dislike about the product?
Needs more flexibility when it comes to building rules as per monitoring - more language support and greater customisation in terms of what can be outputted. Would also be useful to have a hierarichal access to rules allowing for rules to be specific for certain parts of the business
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows for rules to be applied on tables within Snowflake enabling the wider team be notified of any data quality checks. This saves a significant amount of time.

The capability to take a resource and trace its lineage back to raw resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
N/A - At the moment don't have any disklies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reducing time to RCA for debgugging. This reduces platforom downtime/increases platform uptime.
Very helpful features and proactive team
What do you like best about the product?
We started using Sifflet 3 months ago and it already helped us monitor the Data quality of our most critical transformed tables. It also allowed some teams to monitor business indicators, that no one had time to track so closely.
For now, we are very satisfied by the "monitors" feature of Sifflet : it is easy to use, the integration of all our tables was very fast and the implementation or modification of monitors is quite clear (and it keeps getting clearer with the regular updates of the tool).
We will soon start using the other available features, such as the Data Catalog and Business Glossary, that also seem well-thought and easily actionable.

What do you dislike about the product?
For now I do not see any real downside about Sifflet, considering the fact that all our painpoints were addressed quickly by Sifflet's team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitor Data Quality and Business indicators, to allow for a more proactive response of the Data team in our company (already partly implemented)
Allow teams to track their key indicators thanks to Slack alerts (already partly implemented)
Allow everyone in the company to access to a clean Data Catalog (future)

Very useful tool for Data Management
What do you like best about the product?
We have worked with Sifflet for around 2 years now. That includes many teams from acorss our organization that work with data, or use data to make decisions.
Issues are identified sooner from an Engineers perspective, we can proactively catch them and avoid awkward conversations with Stake Holders.
The Customer Support is another massive benefit of working with this company, they offer great indibidualistic approach, quick responses/support. And are always looking to improve their product based on feedback. It's refershing after many companies do the exact opposite.

What do you dislike about the product?
Lineage Tracking can become quite confusing at time, especiall with complicated architecture in Data Warehouses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping completely track lineage across many data assets. The automated monitoring and slack messages are also great help and speed error catching.
Sifflet is a game changer for data observability!
What do you like best about the product?
For me, the ease at which I can monitor my data freshness, quality and lineage is the game changer. The seamless integration with other technologies in our data analytics stack, especially dbt and Bigquery, makes it a useful addition to building a modern data stack in my company. It's also been really useful for our stakeholders to easily and quickly find their data assets and business terminologies and definitions.
What do you dislike about the product?
For the purpose for which Sifflet was made, I'm yet to see a downside.

data governance
A powerful data monitoring tool
What do you like best about the product?
Sifflet is a powerful data observability platform that lets you set up alerts on your data with just a few clicks. We implemented it a few months ago in our company and have been using it every day since.
We can set up an infinite number of different monitors, forecasting the values of our data tables, customizable SQL monitors, ... and it's all very intuitive.
It's very easy to integrate Sifflet into Tableau dashboards. This lets us know, for example, if the graphs we're looking at haven't been updated as expected.
It's also very useful to be notified directly on slack or by e-mail in the event of an alert, rather than having to connect to the platform.

What do you dislike about the product?
The Sifflet platform is still relatively young. As a result, there may occasionally be minor bugs. The Whistle team is very reactive to correct these bugs. These little bugs are really just a detail, and I've never encountered the slightest problem when setting up a monitor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Sifflet to set up slack alerts in case of bad synchronization of our data and also to check some key metrics (alerts if this KPI goes below a certain threshold, alerts if a certain value doesn't behave as expected by machine learning, ...).

What do you dislike about the product?
While Sifflet offers a plethora of advantages, one area that could see improvement is the user interface, which can be a bit overwhelming for new users due to the depth of features offered. A more intuitive design or enhanced onboarding could help new users better navigate and leverage the platform's full capabilities from day one.

Data quality game changer
What do you like best about the product?
It's been 6 months since we started using Sifflet. Multiple teams inside our company use Sifflet now. It has made us proactive in find out data issues instead of being reactive after data issue has been raised.
Sifflet is game changer, we have been able to identify issues sooner, within a day or two and take actions to resolve it, potentially saving us revenue.
One major aspect that Sifflet excels is in creating monitors that checks the discrepancy between tables.
Sifflet is helping to build more trust in our data.
In terms of ease of use - Some parts are intuitive, some parts took us some time to get used to.
And last but not least, our interaction with Sifflet has been great. They are welcoming, knowledgeable. They support us whenever we have issues/questions.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is a considerable amount of effort in getting onboarded to Sifflet. We need to create monitor/s for each of table/view instead of Sifflet auto-monitoring completeness, freshness, schema changes.
At the same time, we have got overwhelmed many times with the number of alerts. We need to spend dedicated time everyday to make sure we mark the incident accordingly - False Positive, Fixed, Known Issue etc. So plan for it.
This sentence is probably limited to Bigquery and how queries are written in our company - Lineage isn't still complete. It has got better from the time we started, but still can't see all the tables in it.

Data Quality and Observabililty. We have been able to identify Data Quality issues as soon as it happens
A core component of our Data Strategy and Transformation
What do you like best about the product?
Sifflet is more than just data observability, sure that is the bread the butter. What I love is all the additional functionality such as the lineage, catalog, glossary and chrome extension. How Sifflet for me does this best is the deep interconnectivity of all these assets. I can start on place and deep dive and explore all the different elements and facets of a Data Product.
What I've found in my deployment is it has allowed different profiles of users from engineer, scientist, salesperson, marketer, journalist to better start in the area of observability/governance they are more comfortable with and learn what else is associated. It has deeply boosted our data quality and unity efforts.
We've labelled Sifflet our Data Library, because thats the powerful function it plays

What do you dislike about the product?
Not a big issue but allowing to change the default role when signing up! Users get granted the system default role when SSO logging for the first time then we re-assign once they're in
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sifflet has allowed us to better understand, identify, and solve data breakages and quality issues. We have improved our global incident management and error management by 167% within 6 working weeks.
It has also aided in the knowledge management of different data assets and their relationships. We had a huge issue of single person dependency on knowledge of data until we got this tool.
