Overall Satisfaction with Alation Data Catalog
Alation Data Catalog is used as a data analytics tool within the part of the organization that I reside in. It serves as a database for all of our data, including third party data, where we can run queries that are then used in Tableau dashboards, Microsoft Excel pulls and other data analytic tools. This data analyses is then used to build presentations for the VPs and above.

Alation Data Catalog allows for more powerful data analysis, queries and export of said queries to build data models and reports that lead to internal presentations. It's more user-friendly than Azure SQL, and more powerful than Microsoft Excel VBA, though I still prefer to use Microsoft Excel for most of the work that I do.
