Amazing Resource for Data Dictionary
What do you like best about the product?
Atlan has decreased the time it takes to research our internal data sources and the relationships data within our warehouses. As a data engineer, it's also alleviated our team of being the single source of knowledge for the definitions of our data.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a query option within Atlan that I don't have much use for. The data preview is extremely useful, but any sort of query development is much better served or accomplished with another tool that we have because those other tools are more robust.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I look at data within our data warehouse, I sometimes do not know the definitions of specific metrics or the source. The data dictionary within Atlan forces us as engineers to take the design thinking we used to build pipelines, data tables, views, etc and define it for the larger organization. It also supports historical data understanding and architecture to make decisions for new products that we engineer for our stakeholders. Atlan provides the means for us to investigate, design and define the data that we are ingesting and use on a daily basis.

Great experience! The simplicity allows for a great user experience.
What do you like best about the product?
The search option for looking up data sources/fields is beneficial. I believe this is the most used resource due to the data in our databases. The ability to add definitions to the fields ensures the correct data source is selected.
What do you dislike about the product?
Atlan has a lot to offer, but knowing what all Atlan can be used for is challenging.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Atlan solves the issues of locating data tables and fields. The search ability helps users find the proper data source to complete their job functions without depending on a specific team to point them to the correct source.
Modern Catalog with E2E Visibility
What do you like best about the product?
Atlan has built-in first party integrations with Snowflake, PowerBI, Sigma, Fivetran, and dbt.
Instead of relying on engineering teams to spend months at a time to integrate to Atlan, we can get quickly up and running in weeks, if not days.
Atlan has one of the strongest data lineage parsing mechanisms out there that creates a comprehensive data lineage view of data assets from Snowflake database tables / views to the models that transform them, and even exposes through to PowerBI.
The interface is easy to use and bridges the gap between technical metadata and business contexts of datasets with the glossary of the organization.
Its true strength is enabling a single collaboration area between engineers, analysts, and business users alike to empower organizations to become data centric.

What do you dislike about the product?
Although Atlan is expanding into various integrations across the ecosystem, there needs to be a way to accelerate the first party integrations to other strong ecosystem partners like Coalesce and Soda.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In our organization, our analysts and engineers are spending an outsized amount of time answering questions about data.
This is due to a combination of different factors where ultimately, we lack the ability to have visbility and transparency across the data assets in our organization.
Atlan will be solving this by providing a holistic view of our datasets from source to reports that will then empower our business users to self service their own questions across data.

Next Generation Data Governance
What do you like best about the product?
Clean, user friendly interface. Was relatively painless to get all of our data sources added in quickly and we had all of our sources supported right out of the box. Beyond the obvious usefulness of end to end lineage, that mining features are also great for understanding what tables and columns are most used, and even helps identifying slow or expensive queries. Chrome extension allows users to get to information without switching applications and Teams integration helps keep questions centralized and front of mind for the org. Support and Customer Success have been great to work with. Upcoming AI features will make managing the platform with minimal staff even easier, and should also help drive user adoption through ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
One function I would like to see added is the ability as an admin to see the application as a particular user does. With personas and purposes you can deeply customize what a user can see and do and having the ability to quick validate that instead of needing test accounts would be a timesaver.
Additionally the text editing in the Glossary is extremely basic and needs simple functions like Undo added.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Atlan is making it easier for business users to understand exactly how metrics are being calculated, where that data is coming from, and if there are any known issues with it. Combination of the data lineage and glossary removes all of the mystery behind where numbers are coming from and will increase confidence in the accuracy of what they are seeing. This also frees up the data team to focus on future enhancements instead of spending so much time answering questions and chasing down issues.
Atlan as the ideal interactive business metric catalog product
What do you like best about the product?
Atlan provides not only a robust product for metadata management, but also a great customer experience in terms of both UI as well as implementation support.
I especially liked the seamless integration with our data assets hosted in BigQuery and Looker.
Our Customer Success Manager and his team were extremely helpful during the rollout and provided various practical advice on how to engage the relevant teams in my company.

What do you dislike about the product?
As the product is complex and dynamic (improvements keep on coming), there were a few cases where it did not work perfectly. Fortunately, all operational issues were rather quickly (hours-days) resolved by the helpful support team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main use case for us is the introduction of a single source of truth for business metric definition, including live links to our data assets (DB & BI tools) and additional information about the business metrics (ownership, description, links to other documentation etc.)
Atlan G2 Review
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use for creating glossaries, terms, tags & certs is awesome. It doesn't take a lot of clicks to find information and to relate data to specific topics.
What do you dislike about the product?
At the moment, the "welcome" page is not customizable. It would be great if we were able to customize this to how our company communicates
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We currently have information about data in several places (confluence, jira, slack, google apps, etc) by allowing the original documents to be linked from their places of origin onto the data assets; this gives freedom to continue to update the original documents but also provide a one-stop source to all related information.
Fantastic Data Catalog for Data Operations centric organizations
What do you like best about the product?
Atlan's ease of use and configuration certainly helped us get started quickly and make an impact to our data ops-heavy organizations.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some minor quirks to the UI, but the support team are interested in all user feedback and have made changes quick based on our input.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralized data discovery and governance
Data Cataloging and discoverability made easier
What do you like best about the product?
Indepth Lineage and Chrome Extension for Lookerare key to data discoverability for our huge data pipelines
What do you dislike about the product?
Search doesnot let me lookup an asset which should include the combination of data points I am looking at.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
one place data dictionary and cataloging for all my assets
Atlan has been helpful and insightful as a data cataloging platform.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the lineage feature of Atlan the most. Like that, the tool asks for data owners and connects with Jira and Slack to make it a seamless experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel like searching terms in Altan does not give the best request. Also I found setting up personas and roles was not very easy to understand.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Atlan is our central repository for data definitions and we are able to access it right into our reporting tool Looker. This is very useful and best use case for our end users.
Incredible tool for data-curious users
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to get access to find the answers I need using SQL. Before Atlan, I would have needed to jump through many loops to access our data. With Atlan, I can access all tables, which are organized and described clearly so that I can discover data efficiently. Atlan also makes crafting, saving, sharing, managing, and reusing SQL queries simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing - even when I have had issues in the past, Atlan's team would work to resolve them quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Atlan helps teams answer questions quickly. They provide the tools needed to get into your data and come out with a clearer understanding of what you need to be answered. They make this process as seamless as possible, ensuring the user can focus on the decisions they need to make instead of messing with data.
