Room For Improvement

Data Hub needs better integration, automation, UI, analytics, and security, with enhancements in metadata, memory, and AI functions.
Users seek cost predictability, faster responses, better integrations, improved triaging, communication, invite guidelines, and flexible payouts.
Providing consulting or support with professionals who are qualified to use Data Hub would be interesting, along with providing training and certifications for the tool so that those who are implementing it can specialize increasingly in its features.
Data Quality Engineer at truelogic
The impact is very positive, and there are many benefits for us using Data Hub because it was easier to make data governance, create centralized metadata management, improve data discoverability, and manage data in general.
Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
I wonder if it can automate the classification exercise, possibly using AI to auto-classify PII direct and indirect items.
Director at a university with 1-10 employees
More advanced AI capabilities would help prioritize reports, reduce false positives, and speed up the validation.
Senior software engineer at Simplifyvms
There are no clear guidelines for being invited to programs and conferences.
dApp Auditor at Hacken
Sometimes new users don't receive invites just because they are new, despite potentially being very skilled hackers, so I feel new users should get more chances and opportunities.

Setup Cost

Enterprise users find Data Hub affordable and effective, connecting multiple data sources with a $100,000 budget, with favorable feedback.
HackerOne is cost-effective for hunters, typically funded by companies, with a 20% fee on awards, making it affordable.
Regarding experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing, I think if we have a budget of one hundred thousand US dollars, we will be able to deploy a reasonable version and connect to a number of data sources.
Director at a university with 1-10 employees
It costs about zero since, if we win the setup, it probably results in no cost.
Finance Feedback Committee at MB Shinsei Finance Limited Liability Company
The cost is rated as one since there is no need to pay anything, not even a fee or commission.
dApp Auditor at Hacken
I have not experienced any costs since I use HackerOne independently, just logging into the site, hunting bugs, and submitting them without any expenses.
Senior ICT Security Consultant at Applied Principles Limited
 

Valuable Features

Data Hub enhances data exploration, collaboration, and governance with seamless integrations, metadata management, and user-friendly interface, boosting efficiency.
HackerOne excels in vulnerability tracking, researcher engagement, and integration, enhancing security through a global ethical hacker community.
Data Hub became a single source of truth for metadata, supporting both compliance requirements and day-to-day operational needs.
Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Data Hub has positively impacted our organization by bringing the tribal knowledge that resides with team members into a single place where users can discover and understand the data elements before they make use of it.
Director at a university with 1-10 employees
Having a tool that shows the data lineage from the source until the target tables helps us a lot.
Data Quality Engineer at truelogic
It has a very simple user interface, and it gives you a quick response—if you submit a bug, someone reaches out to you within minutes, telling you they will verify the bug, and it can be verified in just a few days, sometimes even less than a day, which stands out for me.
Senior ICT Security Consultant at Applied Principles Limited
HackerOne is a very good platform with the trust of different companies including Shopify, PayPal, and Uber.
Senior software engineer at Simplifyvms
I find bug bounty programs most valuable for our organization because they invite researchers from around the globe to find bugs in our environment, allowing us to fix various severity vulnerabilities or bugs that, if left unaddressed, could lead to losing customers.

Featured Reviews

Akashkhurana Hirana - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Software Engineer 2 at Porch
Metadata management has streamlined lineage tracking and data discovery for our teams
The best features Data Hub offers include its integration capability with many popular tools like Apache Airflow, Snowflake, dbt, Looker, Apache Kafka, and BigQuery. These tools provide us with data in various places, and we commonly use Apache Airflow for the DAG, while utilizing BigQuery as our database and Apache Kafka for consuming messaging queues. Data Hub easily connects with all these tools and features excellent data discovery and visualization capabilities. We can see data visibility, where it comes from, its upstream and downstream relationships. If we remove a column, we can assess the impact of that change. Furthermore, if there are duplicate datasets being used by different teams that do not communicate regularly, onboarding all data to Data Hub allows us to identify these duplicates easily. Out of all those features, I believe data discovery and impact analysis are the most valuable for my team because when we want to add or drop a column, we can assess the impact analysis to understand the downstream effects. This helps us know who owns a dataset, and we can easily contact the owner. Tracking the data lineage back to the source table is also a key benefit. Data Hub has positively impacted my organization by significantly reducing manual work that was previously needed to identify upstream and downstream data relationships, as well as recognizing duplicate datasets. If a data contract is broken, we now easily get notified of those issues, making the process much easier and more efficient. It is particularly useful for data engineers and platform teams to check for problems directly within Data Hub. Data Hub has saved our team a lot of time. For example, in a large company like Porch, if I want to know whether a specific dataset exists, I can check Data Hub, as it serves as a centralized point for managing the metadata of our data. While it does not contain all data, it does contain the metadata necessary for understanding the dataset's origin. If a dataset does not exist, I can simply see who the owner is and reach out to them, which reduces the dependency on others by providing direct access to information in Data Hub.

Crowdsourced security has strengthened our bug discovery and improved vulnerability response
HackerOne is already doing well, although I believe implementing stricter SLAs for the time to first response and time to bounty would help prevent researchers' burnout, especially regarding duplicate submissions. I suggest systematic bug rewards because currently, if a researcher finds one bug in multiple places, they often only get paid for one. Improving the handling of systemic vulnerabilities would encourage deeper research. Additionally, improving multi-currency and crypto payout options would help make the platform more accessible globally.
