Data governance has transformed business glossaries and now drives AI-ready insights
I think it's a great platform. Searching can be made a little better. The data marketplace which it provides is also great, but sometimes when we are searching an element and we know we are not sure if we can find it or if we have missed it. Listing data domains in one place for quick visibility will be an add-on. I am not a hardcore coder. For a coder to create workflows and automate the process, I needed to learn Groovy script and create some workflows. In the automation part, I think it can also introduce a low-code, no-code platform where we can connect different connectors and we can quickly create some automated workflows, if at basic level only, because the next big thing is automation and AI. Low-code, no-code platforms are being used by everyone. I think that will be useful. When I look for a data domain, I'm not able to find it very quickly. For a business owner to know data domains and search data domains, it could be made a little easier. Also, the automation part needs improvement. We are only able to enter the data manually or connect to a data source, but now we want to create some workflows as well. That's why I've chosen a rating of eight. Otherwise, it's really great.

Legacy backup works well with good UI and amazing support
I use it for backup and virtual machines, and the databases are on-premises and in the cloud It's a good solution. It's been in business a long time working with backup. I love it for legacy backup work, I think so. I need more options for virtualization. I know it's good for virtualization, but…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I rate the technical support from Collibra as nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is the discovery process for the data catalog because we get it in a visual format as a way to understand and classify it."
"The feature I like most in Collibra Governance is the lineage. It lets me do lineage that you can set up, for example, technical lineage and business lineage. The solution lets me associate the right people with the right assets, so anybody who has to look at end-to-end instances can use Collibra Governance and figure it out, in terms of who to contact, what to do, and where to find what you need."
"Now, it's a very robust metadata management and data governance tool."
"This solution is user friendly and offers multiple functionalities. It operates like a kind of a repository that allows you to find anything about a particular data set or field."
"Collibra is definitely a good tool from a governance perspective."
"If you try to utilize it, the data lineage is number one, because there's awesome capability in it."
"The most valuable features of Collibra Governance are that it is user-friendly and easy to use."
"The most valuable features of Veritas Data Insight are the ease of use, one console deployment for the administration, and backups that can be done in minutes. It is a very fast solution."
"Veritas Data Insight has been instrumental in managing and categorizing data across our storage repository. The tool identifies valuable business data and distinguishes it from non-essential data. This capability empowers us to separate and exclude unnecessary data from our long-term retention strategy. Its valuable feature is alert mitigation."
"Data Insight is a good product to do everything. It is kind of transparent to administrators. It is also a very good solution with regards to GDPR compliance and regulations. Veritas is a well-established company, and it has a long legacy. Veritas solutions have expected stability and flexibility. It supports most of the flexible solutions in the market and has support for data protection, data monitoring, and things like that. In these ransomware times, it is a very important company with good solutions."
"It's a good solution."
"The features I find most valuable in Veritas Data Insight include its exceptional speed in classifying unstructured data and its user risk-scoring functionality."
"The solution allowed us to handle GDPR and we made sure we were ready and had storage optimization."
"I love Veritas support."
"The stability has been great."
 

Cons

"Recently, I find that the default process of issue management in Collibra is really complex — It wasn't really helpful to us."
"Collibra doesn't provide support for integration for SAP Info Steward directly with Collibra."
"A key area for improvement in Collibra Catalog lies in its integration capabilities, particularly with a broader range of sources."
"It should have more integrations with things like CyberArk because its main purpose is GDPR implementation. We have to have more scope for things that implement more privacy. CyberArk makes sure your credentials are vaulted and your things are secure when you're creating your integrations or connecting to an application. I do believe that they are working on this feature."
"Regarding the accuracy and reliability of output for Collibra Platform's AI capabilities, there is room for improvement by expanding the number of use cases."
"Occasionally we get little bugs that occur, however, this is typical."
"In the automation part, I think it can also introduce a low-code, no-code platform where we can connect different connectors and we can quickly create some automated workflows, if at basic level only, because the next big thing is automation and AI."
"I would like to see a feature using the runtime dashboard."
"The nature of both data processing and start processes often involves varying timeframes for retrieval, mainly dependent on the historical data being accessed. When the request involves pulling information from six months or two years ago, the process may take longer."
"I need more options for virtualization. I know it's good for virtualization, but another product might be easier to work with, like sending to VendCap and Restore."
"I need more options for virtualization."
"Veritas Data Insight's reporting capabilities require enhancement."
"The price of Veritas Data Insight could improve, it is expensive."
"Its deployment can be a little bit complex. It should be easier to set up. The ease of use of this solution can also be improved, and it could have a cleaner, up-to-date, and intuitive GUI. There are a lot of competitors out there with much nicer GUI and easier setup. It should have a better connection with the cloud sources and much more monitoring. I would like to have a single management interface for on-premises and cloud deployments so that we don't have to switch between them. Its technical support can also be a little bit better."
"Its deployment can be a little bit complex. It should be easier to set up."
"The solution is not lacking any features at this time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Generally, it is a rather expensive solution compared to some other tools in the market, but I found it to be fair-priced for its capabilities."
"Collibra Governance is extremely expensive"
"I think they can bring a few more features and align better with other quality products."
"There are different levels of licenses. For example, some users can only do read-only licenses, and others have the stewardship license where they can give access to users."
"I think it is on a yearly basis, but I'm not involved with the pricing session, so I have no idea. There are several licenses for different models. You get one license per product, but a lot of features are controlled separately through different licenses. So, as and when you want to use a feature, you have to procure the license for that feature."
"The product's pricing is high, which its comprehensive features and capabilities may justify."
"Collibra Governance is an expensive solution."
"It is substantial, and we do pay yearly."
"It is my understanding that the license with one year of support is, per user, around 25 Euros."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"For Veritas Data Insight, the usage is based on a per-terabyte model. The annual cost for this usage is approximately one million dollars. It would be roughly 50,000 dollars to provide a more accurate equivalent."
"The price of Veritas Data Insight could improve, it is expensive."
"Licensing is based on the number of users or the usage in terabytes."
