1. Atlan is deeply committed to innovation. Its products, such as Atlan AI and Atlan Mesh, are redefining the concept of an Active Metadata Management tool, also known as a data catalog.

2. The customer support and customer solutions teams at Atlan are highly engaged in helping clients achieve their goals. They often create custom packages or solutions to meet specific needs.

3. Atlan’s Chrome extension is noteworthy. It offers the convenience of an embedded Atlan solution within Databricks, Power BI, Google Chrome, and other platforms, eliminating the need to switch between applications. This seamless integration enhances user experience and productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the product documentation is publicly available, some of it is outdated, which can sometimes lead to confusion among clients. Additionally, information about bugs and fixes is not readily available on the official website. Once a request is opened, it’s currently not possible to assign a priority level to it. This is an area that could benefit from improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Data catalog and data lienage between the source and final reports is very helpful for all the users , both technical and non technical folks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Initial setup is time consuming and takes effort Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1.) Using lineage to conduct impact and root cause analyses to clean up our data. We were in the middle of a data re-architect before bringing in Atlan and now having it we can easily spot assets without queries or downstream attachments for clean-up and deprecation.

2.) Easy to use and intuitive UI, the browser extension is icing on the cake, end users can view information in Atlan without having to switch from their current screen to the platform, which is going to aid immensely in adoption. We've had users already solve issues using Atlan with little to no training.

3.) Customization features from personas and policies, to customizable messaging and scorecards to ensure integrity and accuracy the first time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1.) Some of the sublayers in licensing privileges are not clearly delineated and need to be specified at the persona level which could cause overages. A great example is insights licenses are not granted at the individual level.

2.) Atlan only goes to the tile level in Looker, it would be nice if they went all the way to the calculation for lineage and specificity without having to manually define it.

3.) The UI has basic spelling and grammar errors that could be cleaned up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use for admins, developers and business users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A couple of the critcal support tickets took a long time to resolve, but normaly they were processed in a timely fashion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its UX and its deployment added its data lineage and the easy integration with multiples sources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its technical supports is to slow in the resolution and sometimes not very accurate Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is one of the best data catalogs in the market and I would say it has the best UX. It is easy to adopt and is designed to be close to where your users are looking at data (It has a plugin), which makes adoption a lot easier.

We are still rolling out all the features, but so far we have seen a lot of value, specially using the lineage functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great if they had an easy way to add assets they have no connectors for. While the APIs are great, one of the reasons we selected them, there are tools where using engineering resources is too expensive or the tool we want to connect to does not have APIs. I understand we would not have all the features the API or the connector gives us, but it will not stop us from adding ALL data related reports in Atlan. Right now, we found a hack using Glossaries, but it would be ideal if they could make that available without hacks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Customer Support is very helpful and happy to find work arounds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No downsides - the platform is still being developed. Perhaps a bit more Data Quality features and native connectors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Atlan seamlessly integrated into our modern data stack, with Snowflake and Sigma at its core. The integration with Sigma, empowered by the Chrome Plug-in, emerged as a standout feature for us, elevating user experience and adoption. With the Chrome extension, all users in our BI enviornement have an enriched experience with Atlan providing data definitions and lineage while also enabling users to submit Jira tickets without leaving Sigma.

The Atlan University is a great resource and training tool. However, the format of the short videos without seamless transitions could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clean, user friendly interface. Was relatively painless to get all of our data sources added in quickly and we had all of our sources supported right out of the box. Beyond the obvious usefulness of end to end lineage, that mining features are also great for understanding what tables and columns are most used, and even helps identifying slow or expensive queries. Chrome extension allows users to get to information without switching applications and Teams integration helps keep questions centralized and front of mind for the org. Support and Customer Success have been great to work with. Upcoming AI features will make managing the platform with minimal staff even easier, and should also help drive user adoption through ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One function I would like to see added is the ability as an admin to see the application as a particular user does. With personas and purposes you can deeply customize what a user can see and do and having the ability to quick validate that instead of needing test accounts would be a timesaver.

Additionally the text editing in the Glossary is extremely basic and needs simple functions like Undo added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool is very intuative to navigate, making it so we don't have to do a lot of training for new users. Implimentation was also easy and their customer support has been great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The lack of flexibility around custom fields. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
