I find Alation to be fantastic with its product innovation and am impressed by its ongoing development, including piloting a new AI product feature. The excellent customer service stands out, with the Alation team being very approachable and consistent in their client interactions. From the initial sale through to software renewal, they immerse themselves in understanding the client's perspective and strive to ensure their success. I'm grateful for the ease of setup, facilitated by Alation's professional services team through their Right Start program, making the implementation process smooth and hassle-free.

I find Alation to be incredibly valuable for exploring our data catalogue and executing queries. With its central location, it facilitates easy data exploration and enhances trust in our data through the provision of high-quality metadata. I particularly appreciate the simple, context-rich search feature that allows me to find and understand data quickly. This enables me to delve deeper into our datasets and execute queries efficiently. The deep integration with various services like AWS Glue, AWS S3, and Zeppelin is another aspect I greatly enjoy, as it allows for seamless connectivity with other tools we use. Alation has been our primary data catalogue for five years, a testament to its reliability and effectiveness in meeting our needs. Overall, these features make Alation indispensable in my daily work, and I highly recommend it.

Very flexible model; able to adjust the varies aspects to best fit our requirements. Front end's flexibility and ease of use helped sell stewardship engagement.
