"The tool that we've been wanting for a long time."

What do you like best about Alation? The catalog part, although we are still slowing but steadily building on it, holds a lot of promise. It will save our team and our user base, considerable time and effort.

"Alation is the go-to data catalogue for fast-to-insights governance"

What do you like best about Alation? Firstly, the Alation team are very customer centric. Regular, consistently useful comms, on point, every time. The product is very easy to deploy in AWS, and connecting to our DW and reporting systems has been mostly a doddle. We've had a few issues in connecting to Kafka, but that has been because of our setup.
