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

"Using lineage and Collibra Catalog has helped me overall improve the trust and transparency regarding data origin and transformation."
"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."
"We determined what our strategic platform was going to be in terms of a data catalog; IGC just quite frankly wasn't anywhere in the realm of what Collibra could offer in comparison."
"We're saving a ton of time, eliminating any data systems that might have been used previously, and eliminating any last-minute scramble or days of back and forth questioning from stakeholders to other analysts by creating a central repository for terms in their metadata and providing a platform for further changes and approvals."
"The customization and the dashboards are pretty good."
"Collibra are very good at helping organizations get a handle on controlling data and the knowledge around where the data is, its type, etc."
"Collibra Platform has had a positive impact on structure, transparency, and alignment around data in my organization."
"Collibra Platform has impacted my organization positively; the main benefit is that we now have our best catalog organizer, and since we moved from one type of database that was mostly relational, we are now able to see other types of structures, and we can actually use spreadsheets, tables, and other types of information that could be generated from them."
"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."
"I love Veritas support."
"The solution allowed us to handle GDPR and we made sure we were ready and had storage optimization."
"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."
"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."
"It's a good solution."
"The stability has been great."
"The features I find most valuable in Veritas Data Insight include its exceptional speed in classifying unstructured data and its user risk-scoring functionality."
 

Cons

"There should be more detailed documentation on the selectors and certain information, and a reduction in cost as compared to other tools."
"Collibra Platform could be improved regarding data quality, as the rules cannot be defined as easily as in other tools."
"I have seen many customers moving away from Collibra Lineage after using it for a couple of years because the cost-benefit analysis does not give them a favorable report."
"Collibra doesn't provide support for integration for SAP Info Steward directly with Collibra."
"The UI of Collibra Platform can be improved, as can some APIs such as the import API."
"There are three environments - stage, development and production. Often things work well in the first two stages and then when you get to production, they don't work."
"The solution's search functionality can be improved"
"The breadth of available connectors for metadata ingestion need to grow quickly to support customers as they expand their data governance programs to include a diverse list of source systems from which they want to derive business value."
"I need more options for virtualization."
"The solution is not lacking any features at this time."
"Veritas Data Insight's reporting capabilities require enhancement."
"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."
"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 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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Collibra Governance is an expensive solution."
"It's expensive, especially for small companies."
"The product's pricing is high, which its comprehensive features and capabilities may justify."
"There are different licenses available for Collibra Lineage based on what kind of access you want. If you want, for example, a read-only license they have different ones to pick from."

"Collibra is a bit expensive."
"The solution's pricing is moderate and not very expensive."
"Collibra Catalog is fairly priced - I would rate their pricing seven out of ten."

"It is my understanding that the license with one year of support is, per user, around 25 Euros."
"The solution is cost-effective."
