Reviewer Insights for: watsonx.data intelligence
Performance of watsonx.data intelligence Across Market Features

watsonx.data intelligence Likes & Dislikes

Like

The centralized visibility has made it easier for shared data assets to be more readily usable across teams and locations. Users can easily tell where data comes from, how it is defined and where else it is used in the data landscape without relying on tribal knowledge of an individual or multiple tools.

Like

Clear visualization and automation features

Like

First main aspect is data visibility and metadata management. Earlier identifying right dataset for analysis was very irritating and difficult as the meta data was scattered and we had very limited visibility at the client's place but now with the centralized data catalog it makes our life much easier with quick discovery of relevant data sets which are trusted. The second is data lineage which provides clear visibility and replaces the upstream and downstream dependencies which we used to manually check across teams earlier.

Dislike

It was slow to build and configure, thus making it slow for users to trust and adopt. It took a hard decommission of other tools to truly gain usership.

Dislike

The complex setup and implementation

Dislike

Integration with non IBM Tools might require additional customization which might take time if not well versed with the product like Newbeez in IBM.
