Streamlines reusable data quality rules and has highlighted the need for richer logic and documentation
I worked in Ataccama ONE Platform from version 5 and now we have version 15, which has improved a lot. However, there is still considerable scope for improvement because Ataccama ONE Platform was not that great around 2020 when I started working with it. There can still be more features including writing any logic, improving more keywords for logic building, and enhancing address validation, based on my understanding. User experience is actually good; I do not have any complaints or feedback on that. However, the documentation part can be improved because documentation is key for any organization or tool. If anything is needed for understanding, you have to rely on documentation. Ataccama's documentation has potential for improvement.

Fast in taking unstructured data, processing it and spitting out all the different data types. The team moved to SSIS/SSRS, I suspect it didn’t fit in with the goal of creating a data warehouse.
The manual calculations and formulae. They were a bit complex. The formulae were a bit abstract. Not easy to understand. Not intuitive. I sat beside an SSIS guru and he took one look at them and said “Good luck Geoff”. I coded them all and after I left, I got a call from a techy there asking me what they were all about! He hadn’t a clue how to unravel them, even with documentation. Also, they managed to accidentally delete them all. No idea how they did that. After a few panic-filled phone calls, they dropped the whole thing. It was a mess there. Glad I left.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I was able to ascertain that elements of information was or was not of value to the migration process, thus saving money in the migration project."
"The desktop version of the solution was particularly valuable to me, primarily for creating components. We opted for the data quality aspect to assess the quality of our data warehouse. The functionalities available allowed us to not only check data quality but also serve as an ETL tool. This versatility enabled data transformation and storage in various formats, including files on platforms like SharePoint or local online directories. The flexibility of the tool catered to the specific needs of those building components, contributing to our desired outcomes."
"Ataccama ONE Platform has helped us narrow it down to sixty-five million, which is a big win—at least a twenty million reduction in the data size or the storage size."
"The software itself is quite good and met all my requirements."
"It is also easy to deploy."
"By understanding the existing data from various source systems, we were able to arrive at the requirements for a data quality plan, and create a separate plan to improve the data quality."
"The ease of use of the user console is valuable."
"The notable aspect lies in the workflow structure, where building the workflow aligns significantly with data governance."
"The product allowed us to complete the project on time and within budget and is continuing to be used on subsequent Data Migration/Integration projects."
"We were easily able to merge the two sets of data and find the inconsistencies between the two allowing us to complete this part of the project in speedy fashion."
"It is excellent for data profiling."
"The customer service was very good."
"It has given us the ability to build information that wasn’t otherwise there, to build confidence in our applications, to troubleshoot data effectively and focus our efforts on genuine errors."
"Pandora provides a quick, efficient way to analyze, control and improve data using integrated technology."
"X88 gave a quick view of the quality of the data and a rapid way to fix issues before exporting for use."
 

Cons

"Data movement is a pain."
"I think the algorithms used in Ataccama ONE Platform need to be defined more and more to figure out things much more perfectly than they are now."
"The non-free version has much more capabilities and I did not have the occasion to try it."
"It was a little tough for my team to learn and start using Ataccama ONE Platform because the documentation at that time was not good."
"I believe it would be beneficial if it could enhance its flexibility to connect with a wider range of downstream systems beyond just Excel and Postgres."
"Although DQA can fetch data from most of the commonly used data sources, it has limited modifiers to get data, meaning that the number of technologies from which the data can be acquired is limited. For example, DQA does not support fetching data from Twitter or Facebook. Many competitors have this feature."
"The interfacing to tools such as Collibra was somewhat cumbersome and required more thought."
"It is complicated to fetch 20-25 reports when we profile the data."
"The online training is very useful but needs expanding and updating – it has loads of potential."
"The tool was very unstable and was constantly hogging the resources, even if was not operating at the moment."
"It is way, way over-priced in my opinion."
"The free data profiler doesn't contain enough dashboards to give the user a better feel of the program."
"End to End connectivity could do with some improvement which I believe they are working on at this time."
"The product appears to be horizontally scalable, but is not something I would use in a large scale automated architecture."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Despite not being extremely low-cost, the pricing appears reasonable, making it a profitable and viable choice for companies that prioritize data security and adhere to specific policies."
"There is no need to buy a license. You can just download it and use it for free."
"Our licensing model wasn't user-specific; instead, we paid fees for the engine and maintenance. As we didn't have a support contract, maintenance fees were likely nonexistent. Regarding the upgrade, we had an account for the initial two or three years, and considering the features provided by the solution, the pricing was reasonable."
"The product is reasonably priced."
