Terminology can be a little bit challenging, but learning it isn't complicated. Their search bar could use some upgrades and they are in process so we are looking forward to the new search and the redesigned user interface in 2024. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Robust and flexible solution, with steep learning curve and potential deployment challenges"
4/5
What do you like best about Collibra?

Comprehensive Feature Set: excels in providing a wide range of features to manage data governance. From data cataloging and lineage tracking to data quality assessment, it covers almost every aspect one could ask for a data governance/data management tool.

Flexibility: is both a blessing and a potential challenge. The ability to customize workflows, data dictionaries, and even user interfaces to align with specific organizational needs is a big plus. This adaptability ensures that the tool can cater to a variety of use cases.

User-Friendly Interface: Despite its complexity, Collibra manages to present its features in a user-friendly manner, especially in the last release. The interface is intuitive and offers easy navigation, helping users to grasp the tool's functionalities quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

Learning Curve: the flexibility that makes Collibra stand out can also be a double-edged sword. The initial learning curve for both users and deployment teams can be steep. Understanding how to harness the full potential of Collibra's features might require investing a significant amount of time in training and familiarization.

Potential for Confusion: With great flexibility comes the potential for confusion. The plethora of options and customizable features might overwhelm new users. It's essential for organizations to establish clear governance and training strategies to ensure users make the most of the tool without getting lost in its complexities. It is good to highlight that despite the complexity, Collibra uses really basic concepts that, once learned, speed up the implementation curve.

Deployment Challenges: Deploying Collibra across an organization can sometimes pose challenges due to its highly customizable nature. Ensuring that the tool aligns perfectly with existing processes and workflows might demand careful planning and customization, possibly adding some complexity to the deployment phase.

"Collibra DQ & DIC journey"
4/5
What do you like best about Collibra?

Collibra is a breath of new air in the market of data governance tools; the best part is its flexibility and ease of writing custom integrations and workflows. It also has a good set of OOTB connectors and works seamlessly through the newly established Collibra Egde infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

Because Collibra is a fast-paced business, bugs are unavoidable. Collibra DIC, on the other hand, could do a significantly better job of pushing updates to production and ensuring that bugs are not present. Collibra DQ, on the other hand, is lacking in key functions such as security administration, connectivity, and user friendliness, and in general does not look as mature as the competition.

"Collibra for enhanced data governance"
5/5
What do you like best about Collibra?

Collibra is most helpful in providing a centralized platform for data governance, allowing my organization to manage and maintain their data assets in a consistent and controlled manner. Some of the upsides of using Collibra include:

Improved data quality and accuracy by enforcing data standards and policies

Increased visibility and understanding of data assets through data cataloging and metadata management

Enhanced compliance with regulatory requirements through data lineage tracking and data privacy management

Improved collaboration and communication between data stakeholders through a centralized data governance platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

One of the least helpful aspects of Collibra is its relatively high cost, especially for small and medium-sized organizations. This may make it difficult for some companies to justify the investment in the software. Additionally, Collibra may have a steep learning curve for some users, especially for those who are not familiar with data governance concepts and best practices.

Other downsides of using Collibra could be :

It's relatively complex interface and features, which may require significant resources to implement and maintain.

It may require additional resources and expertise to integrate with other systems and platforms.

It's dependency on IT department to handle the setup, installation, and maintenance of the software.

It may require a significant investment of time and resources to fully realize the benefits of the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The collibra platform is the best in the market, and it works with metadata solutions in our business growth. With so many features and solutions based on the market strategy, users can quickly adopt and use different functions. And support for rest API is more heplful for our business. And overall good as of now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

There is nothing much, only UI for some places, making it unresponsive and difficult to back in. Some areas need to refresh only. But it's not a big one I hope the team will fix it soon and get an update on the same. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Collibra?

We have had some challenges with a need for a custom connection to produce our data lineage. I would have liked to receive more customer support during this process. We also experienced a change in the licensing which caused us to take a look at who is actually holding an author license verses a consumer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"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 characterstics 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.
