Ataccama ONE Platform vs SAP Data Hub [EOL] comparison

"Ataccama ONE Platform has positively impacted our organization because before its implementation, completing tasks such as more than 100 or thousands of rules took more than a week, and now we complete those tasks in less than two or three days due to the automation and one-time task capability."

"Ataccama ONE Platform has positively impacted my organization by being much cheaper compared to other DQ tools and providing very good support."

"The product’s important feature is data profiling and quality check."

"At the beginning, we had almost 80 percent data quality, and after using Ataccama ONE Platform, we reached 90 percent."

"The drag-and-drop feature is incredibly flexible and straightforward."

"Customer service was excellent, and I would give it a ten out of ten."

"The notable aspect lies in the workflow structure, where building the workflow aligns significantly with data governance."

"It is also easy to deploy."

"The most valuable feature is the S/4HANA 1909 On-Premise"

"Its connection to on-premise products is the most valuable. We mostly use the on-premise connection, which is seamless. This is what we prefer in this solution over other solutions. We are using it the most for the orchestration where the data is coming from different categories. Its other features are very much similar to what they are giving us in open source. Their push-down approach is the most advantageous, where they push most of the processing on to the same data source. This means that they have a serverless kind of thing, and they don't process the data inside a product such as Data Hub. They process the data from where the data is coming out. If it is coming from HANA, to capture the data or process it for analytics, orchestration, or management, they go to the HANA database and give it out. They don't process it on Data Hub. This push-down approach increases the processing speed a little bit because the data is processed where it is sitting. That's the best part and an advantage. I have used another product where they used to capture the data first and then they used to process it and give it. In Data Hub, it is in reverse. They process it first and give it, and then they put their own manipulations. They lead in terms of business functions. No other solution has business functions already implemented to perform business analysis. They have a lot of prebuilt business functions for machine learning and orchestration, which we can use directly to get an analysis out from the existing data. Most of the data is sitting as enterprise data there. That's a major advantage that they have."

"Having this solution enables us to approach our clients to upgrade their databases, and we upgrade them according to their business requirements."

"They lead in terms of business functions, and no other solution has business functions already implemented to perform business analysis, with a lot of prebuilt business functions for machine learning and orchestration that we can use directly to get an analysis out from the existing enterprise data."

"SAP is one of the most seamless ERPs that have integrated SAP archiving within Excel. I have not seen this with any other database."

"The non-free version has much more capabilities and I did not have the occasion to try it."

"I believe it would be beneficial if it could enhance its flexibility to connect with a wider range of downstream systems beyond just Excel and Postgres."

"It is complicated to fetch 20-25 reports when we profile the data."

"I have heard that the licensing and setup costs are quite high, especially if we try to connect for a support call."

"I think the algorithms used in Ataccama ONE Platform need to be defined more and more to figure out things much more perfectly than they are now."

"Data movement is a pain."

"Speaking specifically about the version we use, version 12.3, I'm unsure if this has been addressed in subsequent versions. One improvement I'd like to see pertains to the language used in certain components, especially in data quality checks. The language complexity posed a challenge for beginners. Although we had on-site assistance from Ataccama, making it manageable for us, some individuals found it difficult to comprehend, necessitating additional support. The provision of a comprehensive guide for on-premise installation can also be enhanced. The lack of detailed information on the solution's workings and the overwhelming nature of notifications, with extensive content, were areas of concern. Streamlining the notification content in newer versions would significantly expedite issue resolution."

"It was a little tough for my team to learn and start using Ataccama ONE Platform because the documentation at that time was not good."

"In 2018, connecting it to outside sources, such as IoT products or IoT-enabled big data Hadoop, was a little complex. It was not smooth at the beginning. It was unstable. It took a lot of time for the initial data load. Sometimes, the connection broke, and we had to restart the process, which was a major issue, but they might have improved it now. It is very smooth with SAP HANA on-premise system, SAP Cloud Platform, and SAP Analytics Cloud. It could be because these are their own products, and they know how to integrate them. With Hadoop, they might have used open-source technologies, and that's why it was breaking at that time. They are providing less embedded integration because they want us to use their other products. For example, they don't want to go and remove SAP Analytics Cloud and put everything in Data Hub. They want us to use SAP Analytics Cloud somewhere else and not inside the Data Hub. On the integration part, it lacks real-time analytics, and it is slow. They should embed the SAP Analytics Cloud inside Data Hub or support some kind of analysis. They do provide some analysis, but it is not extensive. They are moreover open source. So, we need a lot of developers or data scientists to go in and implement Python algorithms. It would be better if they can provide their own existing algorithms and give some connections and drop-down menus to go and just configure those. It will make things really quick by increasing the embedded integrations. It will also improve the process efficiency and processing power. Its performance needs improvement. It is a little slow. It is not the best in the market, and there are other products that are much better than this. In terms of technology and performance, it is a little slow as compared to Microsoft and other data orchestration products. I haven't used other products, but I have read about those products, their settings, and the milliseconds that they do. In Azure Purview, they say that they can copy, manage, or transform the data within milliseconds. They say that they can transform 100 gigabytes of data within three to five seconds, which is something SAP cannot do. It generally takes a lot of time to process that much amount of data. However, I have never tested out Azure."

"Its performance needs improvement. It is a little slow. It is not the best in the market, and there are other products that are much better than this."

"Nowadays there are some inconsistencies in data bases, however, they upgrade and release the versions to market."

"The company has everything offshore."

"The product is reasonably priced."

"Our licensing model wasn't user-specific; instead, we paid fees for the engine and maintenance. As we didn't have a support contract, maintenance fees were likely nonexistent. Regarding the upgrade, we had an account for the initial two or three years, and considering the features provided by the solution, the pricing was reasonable."

"Despite not being extremely low-cost, the pricing appears reasonable, making it a profitable and viable choice for companies that prioritize data security and adhere to specific policies."

"There is no need to buy a license. You can just download it and use it for free."

"The Cloud is very expensive, but SAP HANA previous service is okay."
