We arrived at Metaplane while searching for an anomaly detection solution. Within a couple of days, Metaplane had us convinced - we (the data team) not only caught errors before they were noticed downstream, giving us time to investigate and correct before the exec meetings, Metaplane also gave us insight into patterns in our data that we were unaware of, allowing us to better understand and explain some quirks in our pipelines and dashboards. That was great and met our needs. However we've also discovered Metaplane's table and column level lineage, especially in combination with Sigma, dbt, and Github integrations, to be one of those "never knew it existed, but now can't live without it" tools. Every time I make a change to a model (so every day), the first thing I do is check what downstream dependencies I might break - the column-level lineage means there is exactly one page I have to look at to decide whether I can just push or whether I have to make plans for a fast fix. There are several other smaller things that we have been surprised and delighted by as well. Talk with the sales people and you too will find something you never knew existed and now can't get by without.

Metaplane filled a need in our organization right out of the box - a robust, easily implemented suite of tests on our data warehouse, which affects our internal stakeholders, and our sources, which affects our own data operations. Over the course of our usage, the feature development coming out of the product has always proven useful. The Metaplane team truly listens to the customers and develops meaningful new add-ons, while refining the implementation of existing features. This has driven our product adoption and helped us make the most of the investment in the tool.

It's really easy to get good monitoring and alerting on your data. You can easily configure which tables and alerts you want, and Metaplane delivers! Their user support is also excellent.
