Ataccama ONE vs. Oracle Enterprise Metadata Management (OEMM)

After evaluating many of the leading data governance/management tools in the industry, Ataccama ONE quickly became a front-runner for our firm's needs and requirements. I particularly like how Ataccama focuses on investing a portion of its revenue on user-suggested enhancements - they truly want to grow with their clients, which is what we were looking for.

As mentioned in my first paragraph, we have found Oracle MetaData management to be very helpful with our training material. Because our business is constantly changing, we often have to modify terminology, procedures, photos, and more. Properly cataloging our materials allows us to use the metadata to quickly search through all resources and identify items that require revision. It is very helpful and saved a tremendous amount of time searching.

• It is one of the leading data quality tools in the industry, in our opinion.
• Offers free data profiling.
• Integrates with other tools for complete end-to-end lineage.

• I like that I can allocate the information according to a catalog or a categorization.
• The system has enough ability to do data analysis without problems.

Incentivized

• Does not support as wide of a tech stack range as I would like.
• It would be nice if it came with a user hotkey function out of the box.
• Having concurrent user usage licenses would be ideal.

• Steep learning curve compared to other applications
• The UI can be finicky, certain actions cause the application to glitch or cause issues
• Occasionally laggy/slow to respond

One of the key factors in our choice to onboard Ataccama was its usability - general end users have everything at their fingertips, it is not difficult for IT developers to setup the tool, and it has been an overall pleasure.

Support has been excellent to date - very user friendly and knowledgeable to help support our needs and issues as they arise.

Ataccama ONE was a clear winner during our evaluation of many other products/vendors. Their offering was the best suited for our needs, and they are a company that we want to grow with over time.

We researched Alex Solutions in addition to Oracle Metadata Management, and although there were comparable price points, features, and capabilities, we ultimately decided to go with Oracle because we use Oracle for our LMS. The integration was seamless and provided a way to get things up and running quickly. We haven’t had any major issues or concerns that have caused us to question that decision at this time.
