Yuval Rapaport - PeerSpot reviewer
Head of Data Management at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Data cataloging has improved quality monitoring and automated lineage supports deeper insights
Integration to data sources and reliability and availability are the advantages in Collibra [Private Offer Only] that really stand out for me, and I believe those are probably the two most important points. I am working with the automated data lineage feature in Collibra [Private Offer Only]. The automated data lineage feature helps with traceability in the organization because it makes the catalog live; rather than the catalog being a spreadsheet essentially with definitions, users can not only find the business definition, but then also see which tables and columns actually create this business term. That's very powerful. Regarding intelligent workflow capabilities, I believe it impacts data stewardship tasks within my team by improving and helping in making and creating those definitions. It is essential to us that Collibra [Private Offer Only] integrates with other data systems in our environment, and we are using it, and it's quite effective. The integration aspect of Collibra [Private Offer Only] is important because it provides data integration that delivers lineage into Databricks, Salesforce, and soon also SAP.
Neha Lall - PeerSpot reviewer
Product Analytics Lead at MSE Technology
Granular behavioral tracking has transformed how we understand user journeys and optimize funnels
Snowplow could be improved in a couple of areas. The Snowplow team is readily available and proactive, always jumping on calls to make changes, especially how we track consent and non-consent data for the EU market. One area of improvement could be its vast canvas, which might feel overwhelming and confusing to people who are less technical or are not sure how to best structure their data. Although Snowplow is powerful, getting value from this granular event data does require strong SQL skills and knowledge of the underlying data model. Therefore, making the data more accessible to less technical users could enhance intuitive self-service exploration, funnel visualization, and easier debugging of tracking issues, allowing product teams to gain insights without relying heavily on analysts. Snowplow could also automate most processes and implement smarter monitoring alerts for fallback. Better documentation and easier debugging when event tracking or schemas change would help, given that managing event definitions centrally can be a hassle when there is a breaking change. Having automated systems to inform users about changes in events or properties would make things smoother across teams.
