We are happy to share some insights about Collibra drawn from our latest market research, Ventana Research Buyers Guide: Data Observability, which assesses how well vendors’ offerings meet buyers’ requirements.
In all of our Buyers Guides, we utilize a structured research methodology called the Value Index that includes evaluation categories designed to reflect real-world criteria incorporated 
in a request for proposal (RFP) and vendor selection process. We evaluated Collibra and six other vendors in seven categories, five relevant to the product (adaptability, capability, manageability, reliability and usability) and two related to the vendor (TCO/ROI and vendor validation).
Our analysis classified Collibra as Exemplary, receiving an overall grade of B with a 66.7% performance. Collibra’s best grouped results came in Customer Experience at 79.4%
performance and a B++ grade due in part to its A- in TCO/ROI. In Product Experience, Collibra received a B++ with a 79.4% performance due to its 82.0% performance in TCO/ROI. Collibra was designated a Leader in Customer Experience, Adaptability and TCO/ROI.
Collibra did not participate in the RFI process.
Collibra’s B grade in Product Experience was impacted by its B- in Capability where it could improve support for agile and collaborative practices as well as the resolution and prevention of data reliability issues. Customer Experience was impacted by its B++ grade in Validation where it could better articulate its sales and onboarding.
Collibra performed best in Product Experience with a B grade, notably in Adaptability, receiving a B++ due to its focus on configuration and APIs. In Manageability, technology administration is a strong point, earning Collibra a B+ grade. Collibra’s documentation and tooling to help customers calculate costs contributed to its B++ grade in Validation.
This assessment was based on Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud, Data Quality & Observability, Version 2023.04, released April 2023.
