Any recommendations for data governance software?

I believe the top two are Colibra and Alation. My recommendation would be to first understand your requirements and ensure you have a data inventory. Tools are just tools, without people and process you are still dead in the water. If you are just blindly asking for suggestions without understanding your needs you will likely stumble into a bad solution.Director of Information Security in Energy and Utilities, 1,001 - 5,000 employees
What is the problem are you trying to solve? Are you trying to meet certain compliance requirements or you are concerned about the security, privacy of your data? CIO/CISO in Healthcare and Biotech, 11 - 50 employees
I agree Alation is a leader, also OneTrust is starting to make inroads in this area.Director of Tech and Cyber Strategy in Finance (non-banking), 1,001 - 5,000 employees
For ease of use Ataccama. We’ve found Infomatica good for end-to-end workflows to manage data quality.Head of Information Security in Finance (non-banking), 1,001 - 5,000 employees
I think Alation is a top, can providing solutions helping the organization derive the best out of provided data. Recommendation is software vendor must be understand customer's requirements and conduct customization on data sets.Director of Information Security Operations in Consumer Goods, 1,001 - 5,000 employees
The real Q is what do you want to achieve, there are so many DG SW out there and as stated below Colibra is leader, first is understanding what exactly are you looking to manage, based on the matrix, one can now ask more Q like cloud/on perm/mobile support/integration with SIEM, API/ automation with 365/Google etcDirector, Security Operations in Telecommunication, 501 - 1,000 employees
There are several top-rated SW packages out there and for the most part (a few have already been mentioned, but I would add Infogix to the list), each has its own strength, so the very first thing for an organization to do (this was mentioned previously) is to determine their primary goal(s) for the use of a Data Governance solution and select the most appropriate offer. Many companies I've seen have simply made a purchase of a product, without really understanding their primary driver and desired outcome, resulting in a waste of money,time and capability.Senior Information Security Manager in Software, 501 - 1,000 employees
My recommendation is that if you are going to select a critical enterprise software for data governance, then you need to create a detailed requirements document that can be used in the RFP process.Don’t rely on the Gartner Magic Quadrant in your selection. Rather understand what your exact needs are and then search for a vendor who can meet those needs.
