What do you like best about the product?
While the application is continually evolving, it's the support we get from the Alation team that sets them apart. Their model for continuous improvement is exactly what application vendors need to focus on. Not everything to everyone but listening to their customers to determine what's important now, not yesterday.

Limited workflow capability. Workflows are key to automating governance tasks.

Classification of data assets. We leverage this to support our RBAC process within Redshift.
