Featured Reviews

Akhil Danturti - PeerSpot reviewer

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.

Automation in data management improves with built-in error rejection but technical support needs enhancement
Multiple areas in Microsoft Data Quality Services could be improved, such as its ability to perform changes automatically, as it currently identifies but does not correct data issues. Regular expression processing is complicated and slow. Technical support from Microsoft is poor, as they do not provide adequate assistance with issues encountered in integration or forming automation. Sometimes solutions to problems take several weeks due to a lack of support, relying instead on personal networks and experience.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ease of use of the user console is valuable."
"Customer service was excellent, and I would give it a ten out of ten."
"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 data profile itself is excellent. You can understand the quality of the data in layman's terms."
"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."
"It is also easy to deploy."
"The drag-and-drop feature is incredibly flexible and straightforward."
"The notable aspect lies in the workflow structure, where building the workflow aligns significantly with data governance."
"The primary advantage of Microsoft Data Quality Services is its capability to automate certain tasks, which are otherwise achieved through SQL queries."
"This solution is particularly useful for data enrichment."
 

Cons

"Data movement is a pain."
"The interfacing to tools such as Collibra was somewhat cumbersome and required more thought."
"I would not say Ataccama ONE Platform is one hundred percent stable. I would rate it at seventy percent stable."
"When hybrid deployment is done, it doesn't have an option to load any kind of file directly into Ataccama ONE Platform."
"There is a notable challenge in having to provide detailed filters before the site recognizes the search criteria."
"They could focus more on marketing the product. The current marketing strategy is not working."
"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 have heard that the licensing and setup costs are quite high, especially if we try to connect for a support call."
"Technical support from Microsoft is poor, as they do not provide adequate assistance with issues encountered in integration or forming automation."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup a six out of ten, with one being very easy and ten being extremely challenging. So, there is room for improvement in the setup process."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"The pricing is in the midrange. It's not cheap, but it depends on the licenses you require."
