What do you like best about Atlan?

I like how easy it is to interact with our metadata. It's simple to upload information and easy to edit it as well. Generally we find that people have a simple time accessing the information they need. The search functionality is quite strong and I find the UI attractive. The Atlan team is extremely helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Atlan?

Not much that I can say. We've had a really positive experience working with the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Atlan solving and how is that benefiting you?

Previously people didn't know where to access data and how to use data in context. They would ask questions in Slack channels taking away time from our engineers. Since launching Atlan we've reduced requests in our support slack channel by 50%, saving 1 full FTE of data engineering time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Atlan?

Atlan has been a great software to use. It is a user-friendly data democratization platform which allows for teams to collaborate on projects. It also allows for us to automate certain manual tasks to make it less susceptible to error. This also makes the work much less time-consuming. With Atlan, it’s easy to integrate other data sources, which is super convenient and unique compared to other platforms. It’s made our team overall more effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Atlan?

While the platform is user-friendly after you learn how to use it, Atlan isn't the easiest platform for onboarding and training new employees. It can be tough to train and have a new employee master the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Atlan?

I love the ability to search and monitor specific data attributes. Atlan elegantly visualizes all data, making it efficient as a data science engineer. Everything is super intuitive to use and works amazing, especially for APIs. Atlan also does a great job in resolving any client issues. Overall, Atlan has drastically reduced our workload in organizing data and metadata as a single source of truth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Atlan?

There are some limitations when trying to work with older data types and technology. I would like to see better onboarding for older technology. Apart from that everything else works perfectly for our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Atlan solving and how is that benefiting you?

Atlan is doing a great job of allowing the entire team to understand our data efficiently from all angles and processes. Atlan eliminates the need to constantly update and work around this single source of truth document we previously had to put together to get all the data types up to date. It drastically improved our terminology and understanding, making our engineering teams much more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Atlan?

Atlan provides an intuitive interface, affordable licencing scheme, ever-increasing list of compatible data/metadata/raw code platforms and meaningful customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Atlan?

Atlan's dependency on APIs to connect to source systems can sometimes lead to missing features and affect user experience, although through no fault of its own. This is because API vendors, such as big industry names, do not always prioritise API-related tickets or bug fixing, thus requiring Atlan and customers to find workarounds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Atlan solving and how is that benefiting you?

Provide a single source of truth for metadata

Embed documentation in the main development cycle

Transparent data classification

Enable self-service troubleshooting and knowledge-transfer

Optimised time allocation to the creation of new content, as opposed to daily support queries Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
