Room For Improvement

Erwin Data Modeler needs UI, collaboration, NoSQL support, integration, and performance improvements for large models and impact analysis.
Securiti needs enhanced support, documentation, automation, AI, communication, fraud prevention, cost estimation, and performance in large environments.
The previous version of erwin Data Modeler used to crash unaccountably, but this one hasn't ever crashed on me, so it's been a lot more stable than the previous version that we had.
Data Warehouse Architect at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees
There is room for improvement in its AI capabilities, such as automatically suggesting normalization or identifying primary, foreign, or surrogate keys to make modeling more efficient.
Data Specialist at TCS
There are many features, and I would expect good documentation detailing each feature, including when and how to use it, to be very useful because data modeling is not very popular in the data area and there aren't many educational videos regarding erwin Data Modeler.
Senior Data Scientist at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
It would be beneficial if Securiti had a feature similar to data mesh, allowing users to directly access remote data through the Securiti UI.
Founder at Kaizentric Technologies Private Limited
It's hard to estimate the cost. They should help with the cost estimation.
Data Scientist, Protection of Personal Information, Information Security at Eviden France
Despite them having connectors and ongoing product improvements, there are challenges with data lineage and updating relationships modules that don't match OneTrust's capabilities.
Senior Manager at KPMG
 

Setup Cost

Erwin Data Modeler offers flexible licenses and robust features, though pricing and management complexity may require third-party help.
Securiti pricing is moderate with flexible enterprise agreements, but deployment costs vary and can rise over time.
For a cloud or SaaS standard edition, it typically runs around two hundred to two hundred ninety-nine US dollars per month.
Snowflake Data Engineer| Senior PLSQL Developer |Data Modeler|Assitant Vice Pre at Jp Morgan Chase & Co.
The experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that the licensing process is painful and quite onerous.
Contract Data Architect at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
It is more targeted toward an enterprise level since organizations looking to store business information and relationship values may consider the pricing.

Valuable Features

Erwin Data Modeler offers visual data representation, collaborative centralized models, integration, and efficient data management for compliance and communication.
Securiti offers user-friendly, comprehensive data management and compliance tools, including automated data intelligence, risk management, and training resources.
One of the key aspects of data governance is defining the data dictionary and clearly identifying which data is accessible by whom and what is not accessible, particularly regarding PII-related data.
SPM at Infosys
The way the data is organized and you have a visual of that organization helps a great deal in terms of trying to remember what you did and trying to retrieve the information.
Data Metrics Engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Migrating DDLs using erwin Data Modeler is easy because I just connect to the database and generate the data model from what is already implemented, making the process straightforward.
Data Modeler at FNB Mozambique
A specific feature I find effective is the sensitive data intelligence (SDA) module, which is very useful for automating compliance processes.
Founder at Kaizentric Technologies Private Limited
I find the zero trust network, zero trust architecture, ZTA, most valuable and unique in Securiti.

Data modeling has transformed regulatory reporting and collaboration across cloud environments
In erwin Data Modeler, areas that have room for improvement include performance improvements. I see that large models sometimes cause it to be slow when opening. Impact analysis can lag as well. Version control is another aspect. If we have developed a current version, it is not integrated with Git where we can easily compare different versions. UI modernization is also something we cannot utilize as it is primarily for development. Additionally, cloud-specific optimizations are needed when it comes to Snowflake or Databricks. When it comes to AI aspects, auto-suggestions for normalization or identifying primary, foreign, or surrogate keys are areas that can be improved.
reviewer2765175 - PeerSpot reviewer
Chief Manager (Information Technology) at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Have built a zero trust foundation that protects customer data and reduces business risk
To improve Securiti, I would say that ultimately the IT team as well as the business team, there has to be an amalgamation of their thought process, convergence of their thoughts, objectives, aspirations for achieving the business objective of a particular organization. The way forward is to form the fusion team wherein there is a judicious mix of business and IT and both the teams understand each other's limitations and the aspirations and the common objectives. As far as needed improvements in Securiti, I would say that automation is key. If you look at the kind of huge amount of data which SOC integrated devices are generating in terms of alerts, automation or the appropriate use of AI is the way forward. That will lead to the overall improvement in the efficiency as well as the threat intelligence will be much more accurate. To my mind, automation with the augmented use of GenAI or the agentic AI solution is the way forward. I choose eight for Securiti because for it to be a nine or 10, ultimately the uptime has to be improved, it should be nearing 100%. Apart from that, there has to be more unified communication happening between various customer facing applications. These siloed applications having their own kind of security solutions implemented also have to be brought on a uniform platform. Until that happens, there is always a gap which has to be filled. The processes within the SOC, whether it is SIEM, NBAD, or your DAM, alert analysis, logs analysis, these have to be predictive analysis, and the thwarting of the cyber attacks still requires more effort.
