“We have very complex data, ranging from the data we capture with our own product, to Shopify data, to other sources like our CRM, so we’re pretty prone to knowledge silos, and have subject matter experts in certain areas, Our biggest win with Secoda has been having a place for technical documentation, knowledge sharing, and eliminating solos. We’re able to make sure everyone has accessibility and visibility into our various data sources.”

"Having things documented on an ongoing basis has reduced the volume of requests the data team receives by over 50%."
“Now we’re actually at a point where we can look up the definition of different things and figure out much faster where specific elements are defined in our systems.”
“With Secoda, we've been able to make sure we're all speaking the same language about data. Which is hard to do once you're a team of over 500 people across many countries."
