Coalesce Reviews & Product Details

Synq has made a huge difference for us, really stepping up our data quality game and helping us get more out of dbt. It fit right into our existing pipelines without any issues. The support team has been fantastic—always ready to help and genuinely excited about data quality, which is something we care a lot about too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, not much at all. It's rare to find a tool that fits so well into existing workflows and enhances them in such a significant way. So let it be the most complimentary review out there - it's deserved anyway. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using Synq sped up my onboarding process, saving dozens of hours in understanding the dependencies of the most important models in my company. Furthermore, making significant changes isn't daunting anymore—I can easily check how my planned changes will impact the entire data pipeline, from transformations in dbt models to how the data is reported in our BI tool.

The Slack integration for error alerts is also crucial in maintaining high levels of data quality. With it, we can proactively address issues, often before stakeholders even notice them.

It's always a pleasure to interact with the Synq team, not only to discuss the product but also other data-related topics. It's evident they are committed to building a great product and staying at the forefront of data trends. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Exploring the lineage of models with many dependencies can become overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Synq offers a centralised place to monitor the data quality of your data sources, who owns them and provides a very nice alerting system when one of the set-up tests fails. My favourite feature is their "Data Products" where you can define a set of related assets that affect a single product (in our case, ML models).

It was super easy to set it up with Snowflake and DBT as our stack and the technical support from Synq has been amazing. The frequency at which they release features has also been impressive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It gets a bit getting used to Synq's "vocabulary" so-to-speak which makes finding a given feature in their website a bit complex sometimes. However, I trust that they'll improve the UX in the future making it easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Coalesce provides an interactive GUI for designing, building, deploying, and managing the organisation's transformation rules into our data flows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While helpful, the git integration can sometimes be a bit of a challenge to manage (e.g., when wanting to override any changes in my branch with that from the master, it won't allow me) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- The data lineage feature is my personal favourite and something that I use very frequently since it simplifies a data structure that would otherwise take a very long time to dig through. It was exactly what we needed to speed up our workflows.

- The customer support is really great. We stay in touch very frequently and have very productive chats about how to get the most out of the tool and what is currently being worked on. So we feel very heard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some features are still being worked on, so there is sometimes some waiting time. But it's usually quite quick and they always stay in touch regarding the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the standout features for me is the alerting system for our data tests and monitors. The alerts are not only reliable but also seamlessly integrated with Slack, ensuring that we stay on top of any issues in real-time.

Another big plus is their customer support. They are incredibly responsive, not just reacting to feedback but also proactively suggesting and implementing features that are genuinely helpful for me as a data analyst.

Additionally, the data lineage functionality is a a great function for me, especially with the ability to drill down to the column level. This makes tracking data changes and understanding dependencies far more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Would be nice to have a link to the Synq documentation in the daily use interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Synq for tracking data lineage and backtracking. It helps me see how models are used downstream, which is great for understanding our data workflows.

I've been using Synq for our migration project, and it's been a big help. The tool makes it easy to check how our DBT models are performing in terms of performance and volume. We, as a data team, use Synq for our regular analytic engineering needs and data monitoring.

The UI is very neat and clean, making it easy to see the data lineage. Synq is also super easy to use, which is a big plus.

The monitoring features are good too. I can set up alerts in Slack to find anomalies, which helps us respond to issues quickly. Integrating the tool with Slack for monitoring and alerting was easy and hassle-free.

Synq customer support is really good. We have Slack support with their team, where we can get help with any queries or difficulties we face, and everything gets resolved quickly.

Overall, Synq has been a great tool for us. It’s easy to use, has powerful features, and helps us keep our data in check. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing as such I can think of. Synq is useful in terms of our regular analytics needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Synq is one of the most intuitive data reliability tools that I have come across. It is very easy to use and integrates seamlessly with our tech stack.

Any business utilizes data from different sources and most of the time if the source data is changed, it has a knock-on impact on the Data platform downstream. With the usage of Synq, we were able to address data consistency challenges.

We are in a position to identify issues proactively. With the help from Synq, we are able to send alerts to the relevant data owners.

We use Synq on a daily basis to keep track of the health of our important data assets.

Our experience of liaising with technical colleagues from Synq has been really very smooth. They look out for feedback and act on it promptly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are no particular downsides to using Synq. It definitely makes our lives easier; however, there is always room for improvement, i.e., taking on the reins of predictive analytics by making predictions based on historical logs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using CastorDoc is very simple and intuitive. It is a powerful tool for data governance in a company as it can be used to provide comprehensive information about any data objects, from the connections between database tables, to how a column is generated, to business rules used in data transformations, to reports/dashboards descriptions.

I truly like the diagram-like lineage view for tables and columns particularly, that easily show how data objects are created. These are very useful for sharing knowledge and onboard new team members / stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, I haven't found negative aspects of CastorDoc relevant enough to share. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, Synq has significantly improved our ability to maintain high data quality and reliability, making it an indispensable tool in our daily operations. The support team is responsive and continuously works on enhancing the platform based on user feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
