"Great Data Governance tool"
4/5
What do you like best about Collibra?

User intuitive, interface looks nice and it is easy to create relationships between assets and view these relationships on each asset page. It is also good that you can view this in diagram form. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

Sometimes when we add in asset characteristics they don't reflect straight away, and if we add them in again they duplicate which can be confusing. For the same asset characteristics these also reflect in different orders, even when inputted in the same order. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

We would like to see much more of the planned roadmap and more solid communication from the product teams, and more opportunity for early feedback that impacts releases and enhancements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unlocking full potential of data and creating new home for data teams"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Collibra?

As a tool that is also expected to be used by business users in addition to technical users, collibra is one of the most user-friendly tools in the market providing 360-degree coverage of data. Collibra provides capabilities to take informed decisions by making data discoverable as per the permissions and also making sure we are well equipped against any possible data breach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

When we talk about being a one-stop shop for all data needs, I wish to see chat functionality in collibra which is not present as of now. So that any user can contact and chat with the responsible person one-to-one (not using the comments section which can be seen by all users) without going out of collibra.

"Collibra Data Catalog review after using it for the last 6 years in various roles."
3/5
What do you like best about Collibra?

Definitely, the most vital point of Collibra is the whole concept coming with the tool - Education platform (University), Community (Data Citizens), Advisory (Adoption Services) and then the software itself. The competition very often focuses only on the solution only, without those additional components. We need to remember that the capabilities of Collibra are enormous but the adoption of the tool would not be possible without proper trainings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

Unfortunately, there are several weak points of Collibra. Very technical and not intuitive User Interface heavily impacts the end user's experience. All people without technical knowledge have many issues at the beginning of their Collibra journey which gives a really bad first impression. Very often without any training, nobody in the organization is able to use the tool and understand how metadata is structured there. Those aspects prevent especially business users from the adoption which impacts overall governance programmes in many enterprises. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
