"The features that I have found most valuable are the user experience, the credentialing, and that BigID is user friendly. Additionally, you can deploy to several other Microsoft platforms and you can use it for other things, like a bigger element or a report."
"One of the most valuable things in a data-focused world is a tool, a technology that's data-centric, not trying to master data management or whatever else. It's a source of truth for what data an organization holds, giving it the ability to catalog, categorize, and understand its data."
"I like BigID's in-depth discovery and scanning capabilities, especially for unstructured data. This feature is a standout compared to competitors. The tool's data classification capabilities are impressive. It offers custom classifiers and a blend of regular exploration and artificial intelligence, making it a next-generation solution. This enhances data security, and its security posture management is straightforward and user-friendly."
"BigID's scanning feature is its most valuable component."
"The ability to collaborate and approve business terms for the business glossary data dictionary is excellent."
"Workflows is the most valuable feature of Collibra because we will typically use an interface for it and we can customize it as per our needs."
"The most valuable features of Collibra are the workflows and the data lineage capabilities."
"The solution's technical support is helpful and responsive."
"The customization and the dashboards are pretty good."
"From the perspective of a data user, the solution has a great search capability."
"As far as the functionality of the tool is concerned, it's pretty slick."
"The most valuable features of Collibra Governance are that it is user-friendly and easy to use."
"BigID is making some forays into the GRC space, and that's a natural progression. I'd like to see that improve so that data governance is better, data risk is identified, and the ability to control and mitigate it."
"Improvement could be made in data consent management and data privacy impact assessment."
"BigID is expensive. I prefer McAfee."
"The tool currently lacks security features."
"In terms of what could be improved, when you're looking in a BigID file, you cannot really get the whole file. You have to export it to download it to another platform that allows you to completely view it, or run a program. That was one of the things that was really a disappointing point for me. Not to be able to view everything. There's a lot more data, but you can't get it all at once."
"While connecting with the data source, it's not very easy. If there's a firewall, it is difficult to connect with the database. It's not easy when you are configuring on the database."
"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."
"When we are doing discovery for unstructured data sources, I would suggest a quality report of the data that would indicate what was unable to process."
"There are a lot of gaps in Collibra's support and documentation."
"The connectors are not very sophisticated. They can do, for example, Informatica and Tableau, but the connectors themselves could be improved."
"We would like to have out-of-the-box automation."
"The interface is not very user-friendly and can be difficult to navigate."
"There's a lot of things available in their Data Intelligence Cloud that are not available on-premise."
