Why you want to work with a market leader
AI is increasing the gap between what companies want from data and what they can actually achieve. Companies often have many ideas for using data but not enough resources to make them happen — and costly cloud projects have not helped. AI also complicates problems with data access, safety and quality. Without a solid data management plan, companies risk chaos and may struggle to meet regulations.
Companies that plan for the future know that strong data management is key to using better AI tools later on.
Organizations should manage their data sources and users to tackle data challenges. At Collibra, we believe the best way to do this is by creating Data Confidence.
How we create Data Confidence
Our Data Intelligence Platform frees your data from the constraints of silos by unifying data and AI governance across every system and bringing business and technical users into the fold. It gives you a higher degree of compliance paired with more autonomy so your users can trust, comply and consume. Data Confidence helps you accelerate and strengthen every data and AI use case.
What does Data Confidence look like?
It’s collaborative
You can bring together every user — from technical team members to business-minded data leaders — in a single collaboration hub.
It’s community-fueled
Our Data Citizens community influenced the purpose-built platform, the largest for today’s data leaders and accessible to every customer who wants to advance their skills.
It’s configurable
You decide how to make the platform work for your team, from colors and logos to how it functions, instead of changing how your team works.
It’s connected natively
Not from risky open source connectors or those managed by third parties but plugged into the sources you need, built and managed by our team.
It’s complete
From the original governance leaders, a fully extensible platform with every tool your team needs for today’s use cases and those in the future.
Why we feel so many analysts have recognized Collibra as a Leader
Simply put, we understand that when governance is done right, it becomes a business accelerator. Our innovative data intelligence platform helps organizations uncover insights, reduce risks and make data-driven decisions.
Of course, we appreciate every recognition from top analyst firms like Gartner and Forrester — we believe, it’s an objective verification that we’re doing things right. To show you what we mean, we’ll share how six independent industry analyst firms said about our Data Intelligence Platform.
Gartner identified Collibra as a Leader in the inaugural Magic Quadrant for Data and Analytics Governance Platforms
Gartner® has identified Collibra as a Leader in the inaugural Magic Quadrant™ for Data and Analytics Governance Platforms.
Gartner notes, “Collibra presents a strong vision in providing end-to-end governance to support various governance use cases and requirements, including AI governance. It provides structure and governance functions with a dedicated focus across technical and nontechnical business users and continues to grow its connections to other data resources and support for various data policies.
Gartner describes a data and analytics governance platform as having “a set of integrated business and technology capabilities that help business leaders and users to develop and deploy a diverse set of governance policies and monitor and enforce those policies across their organizations’ business systems. These platforms are unique from data management in that data management focuses on policy execution, whereas these platforms are used primarily by business roles — not only or even specifically IT roles.”
