    What do you like best about the product?
    I like how Select Star provides a solid support and a rich feature set, which makes it a compelling choice for our needs. I've been using it for almost two years, and it has been instrumental in understanding data lineage and the tagging on certain columns. I appreciate the seamless integration with other tools like Snowflake and dbt, which enhances our overall data ecosystem without any noticeable challenges. The ability to view popular queries and joins of a particular column is particularly beneficial for gaining deeper insights into data usage. I also like the tag propagation feature, which adds a layer of efficiency in managing metadata.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Setting it up for a dbt mesh ecosystem requires some work in setting up a unified project to feed the data → Select Star.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    I use Select Star to understand data lineage and column usage, aiding data consumers with data freshness and tagging.
