"Modules are really helpful. We can group different database objects together to present different aspects of functionality. The ER diagrams are invaluable when it comes to this. This is a very well thought out feature. I also love the progress bar feature! It’s a very useful way to track how much we’ve done over time. I know it’s a simple feature, but so happy to have it! Above all, we use the export to HTML all the time. I’m extremely passionate about properly documenting our databases and managing our information effectively, and it is done thanks to Dataedo."
"Dataedo is the perfect supplement to our Data Warehouse."
"We documented our databases in Dataedo to outline the rules, standards, and logic for BA's, business owners as well as data analytics. As I am using the tool weekly it's nice it is so easy to use. We might use Dataedo for other projects in the future. I would recommend it to other people."
"Dataedo is a fantastic value. We jump started all of our Data Governance efforts using the tool. We documented key databases quickly and easily and published the information to our analyst community. The Dataedo team is dream to work with and very responsive."
"I'm happy to use Dataedo documentation, where I can use images and the links made by the tool you can use to move around the exported documentation. It is very helpful. Thanks to that, many of my colleagues can browse HTML export and learn about the database."
"Dataedo has many features other tools are lacking - ability to document relations that are not set in the DB, rich text descriptions, tracking progress at a glance, grouping objects into topics and keeping track of decommissioned/renamed columns. I would definitely recommend Dataedo to others. It is a great tool and they are very responsive which counts for a lot."
"Dataedo is a tool that is fast and simple to use. Easy structure and search tool helps developers to find descriptions for documented data very quickly. We update documentation with every release so seeing a documentation progress is really helpful. I would recommend Dataedo, as it has all the features which we need for documenting our databases. If we have another project in the future it is highly probable that we would use this tool as well."
"For three years, I have been responsible for designing and implementing the Data Warehouse at BHG. Following the rapid growth of the company and our data operations, it was immediately clear that in-depth and concise documentation was needed for the multiple fields and tables added each day. Dataedo has also improved productivity of both new hires and seasoned employees by reducing the likelihood of costly misunderstandings by providing a glossary of commonly used terms, naming conventions, and even commonly-used strategy patterns.”
"We use Dataedo to document a SSAS implementation for a power business user, to understand the intent of each field and measure so they can build their reports more effectively. It helps us document the 'why' we built it the way we did. The tool is very intuitive to work with, and we use it continuously. We also want to use more licenses in the near future."
"Dataedo is an easy to use facility for managing basic metadata centrally and producing enhanced data dictionaries. Initially we wanted to use it for a single set of system documentation, but we will now employ it for scheduled metadata updates along with multi-user maintenance. The well-structured database repository has also facilitated a Data Lineage project. I would recommend Dataedo to anyone with similar requirements, and in fact already have."
"I am now using Dataedo to help support my client's Data Governance program and make life much better for their BI team. I'll continue to promote this product with future clients as I feel strongly that it is an excellent solution, the best I've seen in its price category."
"Dataedo is improving my work a lot. With documentation, the learning curve is smaller and I can have more time to work."
"Dataedo is simply the best database documentation tool out there. It generates super neat and beautiful document with simple but sophisticated ERD. We were able to set up a process to keep the documentation up-to-date using the command line utility. Everything just works. The reception has been incredible - after seeing the documentation for one database, everyone is requesting one for theirs."
"Healthy Directions is a data driven organization and relies on my team to produce ETL'd data for reporting and analysis. The data team evaluated a few different tools to help with creating data dictionary for the organization's databases, and Dataedo provided the best solution. Dataedo has been the perfect tool that has helped the team and organization in understanding the datasets with it's easy to use tool and database documentation. Even non-data users are able to understand the database structure. It's a great tool and have already recommended to others."
"We are using Dataedo for documenting a web-based application that is used in the medical field. Dataedo is used for database documentation to help create visibility in our design and to provide newer employees the information they need to understand the backbone of the application. I like the auto-generated documentation the most. It's simple and looks good. I would recommend it to others."
