Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

  • "The ability to easily and quickly ingest new data sources is the most valuable feature... I'm not an especially technical IT person, but my data governance lead and I are able to ingest the data, quickly profile it, and do data identification and tagging."

Room for Improvement

  • "We've tagged a lot of fields that are related to specific processes... What would be helpful is a place, inside Lumada Data Catalog, where you can describe the tags that you're using. Otherwise, anybody coming into the system, or seeing the tag from the outside in one of the reports, is going to say, "What is that tag really referring to?" and has to know where my spreadsheet is."

Pricing

  • "We can afford it. We got a three-year contract... If it were to go up and price a lot, I don't know if I would be able to keep it."
These insights are based on the in-depth reviews provided by peers to help you make a better buying decision.
