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.

Senior Software Engineer at Philips
Automated infrastructure deployment has reduced our backend release time from days to hours
I found an issue with features that was difficult for me when we needed to retrieve some tags or IDs of a resource that we deployed using Upbound Crossplane, for example, the RDS. We encountered a problem where we needed to use the ID of the RDS in another document that we have, making it difficult to return this information using Upbound Crossplane deployment. I believe Upbound Crossplane could be improved by possibly having a feature that can return tags, IDs, or resources that were deployed inside AWS, such as needing to return the ID of the VPC that we create when using Upbound Crossplane. I think the current state of Upbound Crossplane is already good enough.

Pros

"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."
"The biggest advantage of Collibra is that it is quite business-friendly."
"Upbound Crossplane has impacted our organization positively as it has been a transformative experience because the main thing about transformation is how we were able to make our lives easier as engineers."
"The time required to complete an environment setup was reduced from about one or two weeks to forty to fifty minutes."
"Upbound Crossplane has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to reduce our deployment time from three days to three hours for the entire back-end and entire infrastructure."
"This CD-type integration has facilitated my operations by unifying the way of working so that I can use the same guardrails for both deployments, which makes the way I deploy much simpler."
"Upbound Crossplane has positively impacted our organization by reducing the pipeline time, saving time, and decreasing cost spending."
"Before choosing Upbound Crossplane, I evaluated various options, but I only found Upbound Crossplane to be the best choice."
"The best features Upbound Crossplane offers are infrastructure as Kubernetes APIs and self-service infrastructure, where developers can provision resources without cloud credentials, and its strong multi-cloud support that makes it useful in managing AWS, Azure, and GCP from a single control plane with valuable GitOps integration."
"Upbound Crossplane impacts my organization positively because, from our perspective, we need to rely on fewer resources."
 

Cons

"If I had to rate support from zero to 10, with 10 being the best, I would give them 6.5."
"The search capabilities are terrible in Collibra [Private Offer Only] because you can't do free search."
"However, one area of improvement is the learning curve, as Upbound Crossplane concepts such as providers, compositions, and claims can be difficult for beginners."
"In terms of how Upbound Crossplane could improve, the generation of providers that are not already covered via Terraform is acceptable, but it could be more user-friendly for people who may not have knowledge of how those custom providers are structured."
"Upbound Crossplane was not stable in my experience."
"Regarding Upbound Crossplane, I see room for enhancement in synchronizing the state file of Crossplane with Terraform, as 90% of organizations have generally implemented Terraform and have their own specific, environment-specific Terraform state files."
"Regarding Upbound Crossplane's capabilities, I feel the governance and security is something which is lacking."
"I found an issue with features that was difficult for me when we needed to retrieve some tags or IDs of a resource that we deployed using Upbound Crossplane, for example, the RDS."
"Upbound Crossplane can be improved if they can add more AI agentic workflows."
"The documentation needs to be updated regarding the needed improvements for Upbound Crossplane. There is very little documentation online, and there are no tutorials for Upbound Crossplane."
