Product: Microsoft Purview Data Governance
Very useful for understanding data origin and trust, but success depends on strong data ownership.
Critical Review
Product: Microsoft Purview Data Governance
The product's functionality is acceptable, but the pricing model, which relies on a high cost per scan, creates a significant financial burden.

The most useful feature for me is the data lineage view. When looking at a dashboard used for seasonal reporting or campaign analysis, it's very helpful to see where the numbers originate and how they move between systems. The data catalog is another big plus. Instead of asking multiple teams where certain datasets live, you can search and understand what data exists and who owns it. That saves a lot of time when building reports or preparing presentations. I also appreciate the sensitivity and classification features, especially when working with consumer data or campaign performance data that has privacy implications across different markets.

1. The metadata editing function lacks flexibility and has limited customization options. 2. The overall cost is relatively high, especially in big data scenarios. 3. Its value needs to be clearly demonstrated through more practical application scenarios.
