Adaptive Metadata Manager vs. Collibra Platform

Any team or organization with complex budgeting and financing could benefit from Adaptive Metadata Manager's ability to track, sort, organize, and analyze volumes of complex financial information. It's extremely valuable for our quarterly reforecasting exercises and lets us stay on track for our budgeting and accounting processes. As a budget manager, I get a detailed snapshot of my YTD expenses.

Collibra is well suited where you have multiple reporting environments and multiple source systems. Collibra works well in our environment because we can delegate roles and administration to departments or it can be used in a centralized environment. The ability to customize attributes and assets as well and integrate using the rest api is very important to us.

I haven't used any other similar products and am unfamiliar with any other options. Speaking generally, Adaptive Metadata Manager's user interface is occasionally buggy and doesn't always allow for smooth navigation. It's easy to get lost in the myriad reports and sheets on occasion.

Collibra offers more features [than alternatives] and is easy for business users to use. We did a proof of concept with Collibra using the Cloud service that allowed us to kick the tires and get a comfort level before we made the investment. At the time of our purchase the market was very immature and is continuing to evolve.

• ROI is hard to measure because there are so many soft benefits that come from the tool. We do have a variety of metrics that we track using Collibra to better gauge the maturity of data governance.
