DataGalaxy Reviews & Product Details

What I appreciate most about DataGalaxy is its intuitive and accessible interface, which greatly facilitates adoption by teams, whether they are technical or business-oriented. The solution also offers modules tailored to different user profiles, allowing everyone to quickly find their way and gain autonomy.

Moreover, the richness of the connectors is a real asset: it allows for simple integration of DataGalaxy with tools like Power BI, Snowflake, or Oracle, thus limiting manual entries.

The price is also competitive compared to other solutions on the market, without impacting performance, even on complex lineages.

Regarding the tool's most advanced features (lineage, connections between objects, construction of MCD-type schemas), the user experience remains generally satisfactory but could still be improved. That said, the product teams are attentive, and most of these points already seem to be identified in their roadmap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some aspects can still gain flexibility, particularly in terms of configuration and customization, which may require a significant initial investment depending on the use cases.

Moreover, while the essential features are very accessible, mastering some advanced features requires a learning period, especially for users less experienced in data governance.

However, this remains logical given the functional richness of the tool, and the documentation as well as the support facilitate skill development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We were looking for a product that would allow us to visualize complex data lineages and DataGalaxy stood out not only in its UI but also in the fact that it was relatively easy to install in our cloud account and because it has APIs to manage content inside of Data Galaxy. It has become an integral and useful part of our data infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are multiple small improvements that would increase the usability. Some of them being: we would like to use our own terminology in the UI. Improvements in the ease of use of the APIs and in installation would be great. But we've also seen that over time Data Galaxy team has fixed issues and improved its functionality.
