Alation Agentic Data Intelligence Platform Likes & Dislikes
Alation's integration of observability, lineage, data quality and governance context - combined with the power of the AI agents, sets it apart from traditional products in this space. These features greatly simplify governance and surface data quality issues proactively. Data discovery is intuitive, and the depth of metadata makes it easier for non-technical users to understand datasets in context. The combination of rich metadata and automated agentic abilities has significantly reduced manual governance workloads and improved insight accuracy
Good UI/UX, Nice arrangement of Schemas, tables and columns, Good query compose feature.
Alation listens and gives the user community an opportunity to share ideas and work together to improve the Alation tool and even the applications specific use of the platform. The ease of the connectors and ability to connect/pull in Metadata is very smooth and easy to implement. The exposure of database content is great via the Alation Analytics database and allows teams to report on usage/curation progress as well as other KPIs. Alation's continued expansion and solution package is very palatable.
There remain a few gaps in coverage, particularly within more modern pipeline/notebook-based operations that are used, but this position continues to improve incrementally. Some documentation is unclear, but Alation support are always on hand to solve any problems.
Starburst connector did not work well for us, Compose only supported user credentials instead of OAuth, Customer support was not able to fix our issues in time.
A few aspects of the application that can use updates: Automating lineage has been problematic from time to time but this would be a key feature to implement. Admin related content within the Alation Analytics tool are lacking and would be a nice piece to support the tool from an administrative standpoint. Some of the maintenance/infrastructure for on-prem has had issues from time to time and we would like to see this improve (though the focus is on the cloud related features at this point).
