Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
5.4
Ataccama ONE Platform is scalable for large datasets but needs optimization for cloud scalability and batch processing.
Sentiment score
7.8
Kong Konnect excels in scalable microservices, auto-scaling, and flexible cloud platform management, supporting seamless traffic control and automation.
As the volume increases, the performance of Ataccama ONE Platform decreases.
data engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Ataccama ONE Platform's scalability is high, supporting large volumes of data and complex logic with flexible deployment options.
Data Governance Analyst at Entain India
There was a concern with the architectural team about how much processing Ataccama ONE would need as usage scaled up.
Senior Architect at SourcEdge
The platform is fully scalable, providing various ways to manage data planes or runtimes.
IT Soulutoin Expert at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Kong Konnect's scalability is very high, handles growth well, and since it is a stateless gateway, it scales easily in Kubernetes using horizontal scaling.
Solution Architect at Dhanyaayai enterprise private limited
Kong Konnect is the control plane, and there is the ability to add more teams and more control planes based on the number of teams you have onboarding.
CTO at Keogh Innovation
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.3
Ataccama ONE Platform is stable but faces occasional issues, especially during updates, with overall user satisfaction reported high.
Sentiment score
8.0
Kong Konnect is highly stable, effectively handling API-heavy environments with reliable performance and minimal disruptions.
With Ataccama ONE Platform, it becomes very helpful, and I can directly integrate multiple sources on one platform to maintain data quality and check for it efficiently.
Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The updates were worth implementing, with no significant problems observed.
Senior Architect at SourcEdge
We are still developing the application, so there have not been many crashes or instabilities.
Data Engineer lV at a consultancy with 11-50 employees

Room For Improvement

Users suggest improving large dataset handling, integration capabilities, search optimization, documentation, interface with tools, and user experience.
Kong Konnect needs enhanced debugging, clearer UI, streamlined pricing, and better CI/CD integration to improve user experience.
The documentation part can be improved because documentation is key for any organization or tool.
Data Governance Analyst at Entain India
It would be beneficial if these interactions could be more plug-and-play and less code-intensive, making them more efficient and easier to set up.
Senior Architect at SourcEdge
After every change and every match and merge rule you apply, you need to reprocess the entire record, which has to again go through the match and merge rules.
data engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The licensing model could be simplified, especially in how they charge and track usage.
IT Soulutoin Expert at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
When comparing documentation, Kong's documentation is not on par with Google, Amazon, or other cloud providers.
API Technical Architect at Independent API Consultant
Token integration presents challenges and has implementation complexities that need addressing.
Solution Architect at Dhanyaayai enterprise private limited
 

Setup Cost

Ataccama ONE Platform's pricing is diverse, with setup costs potentially costly, while lacking a support contract might save money.
Kong Konnect's mixed user experiences stem from straightforward setup but high pricing and unclear cost structures concern enterprises.
What made the costing a problem with Ataccama ONE Platform is related to licensing, as it is every one year.
data engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The only concern I had was that some features like address validation cost a little extra with the basic plan.
Data Governance Analyst at Entain India
I have heard that the licensing and setup costs are quite high, especially if we try to connect for a support call.
Data Analyst, Quality Assurance Specialist at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Pricing was the issue as it becomes very expensive due to the nature of local circumstances.
Senior Software Engineer at Netenrich
I wouldn't say that the setup cost is much more compared to using any other product.
CTO at Keogh Innovation
While the pricing model isn't very clear on how usage is tracked, the initial cost and setup for using Kong Konnect are reasonable.
IT Soulutoin Expert at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
 

Valuable Features

Ataccama ONE Platform enhances data quality and efficiency through automation, integration, and user-friendly tools across diverse environments.
Kong Konnect simplifies API management with seamless integration, robust security, and hybrid deployment, boosting productivity and collaboration.
We were able to interface bidirectionally with Collibra for data governance, catching data quality issues before propagating through the system.
Senior Architect at SourcEdge
It is very good in scalability.
Data Engineer lV at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Ataccama ONE Platform has positively impacted our organization because before its implementation, completing tasks such as more than 100 or thousands of rules took more than a week. Now, we complete those tasks in less than two or three days due to the automation and one-time task capability.
Data Analyst, Quality Assurance Specialist at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The documentation is excellent, and it includes a developer portal, which helps create a common distribution channel for APIs within and outside the enterprise.
IT Soulutoin Expert at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
When I mention scalability, it means that when we experience peak traffic, Kong made it easy for us to scale and spawn new machines.
Lead Software Engineer at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
The security features of Kong Konnect have helped my team mainly by allowing us to use auth and JWT for applications needing external identity provider authentications, such as LDAP or other authentication providers that need to be connected to back-end applications.

Featured Reviews

Akhil Danturti - PeerSpot reviewer
Data Governance Analyst at Entain India
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.

Centralizes API and AI control planes and has enabled federated self-service for many teams
The whole area of API and AI management is quite complex, with so many different ways of being able to do things. I think a positive of Kong is that it's so configurable and extendable, but that is also a con because there are so many ways of achieving the same thing that I think often people are either confused or struggle to get going as to how to solve a particular problem. In my mind, a more opinionated deployment of Kong itself or even how to solve certain use cases would be something I would like to see, so a more opinionated use of their products and configuration of their products on how to solve the most common use cases. That's probably the main thing about needed improvements for Kong Konnect. It's a pretty fully-fledged platform; there obviously are portions of it that could be improved. But I think overall as a platform, it's really good, and I think it can help the majority of organizations looking to manage their throughput of APIs or AI traffic. The majority of what I've said before probably covers the improvements needed for Kong Konnect. There probably are some API Ops and AI Ops changes that could be improved, which is not necessarily the Kong Konnect product, but some of the toolchains around it. I'm thinking around, especially if it's API Ops, about topics like better GitOps processes and the ways of being able to roll back changes when there are issues. At the moment, a lot of that is either non-existent or is hand-cranked. I would like to see the ability to roll back configurations when there are issues being added to the product.
