Metaplane has been great to work with. The team at Metaplane is stellar, and the product fills a huge gap in the monitoring ecosystem. It has become a critical part of our daily workflow and provides a ton of value.

Metaplane is exactly what we were missing, which is an automated way to monitor the content of data in the data warehouse. I love that we receive alerts as soon as the data in a table gets outside the expected band of values-- whether that means that data is not as fresh as expected, a max or min value is too high or too low, the cardinality of a field has changed, or a table row count has shot up or down. With Metaplane, the data team is able to proactively respond to issues with data before business users notice them (instead of finding out about the issues when business users inform us).

There are very few things that I don't love about Metaplane. We do tend to get a lot of alerts if something happens over the weekend and it is not critical enough to respond to right away, so sometimes there is a lot of redundant alerting built up by Monday morning. However, the Metaplane team is constantly working to improve the tool and add new features, and I know this is something they are working to address!

Metaplane is very easy to connect to your database and integrates with other tools like dbt, looker. It helps us stay ahead of data issues that we otherwise wouldn't detect (for instance: the pipeline runs correctly, but you are missing half the data) and speeds up the investigation when an issue is raised. The support team is always ready to help and every new release brings a great feature.

The ease of use and set up of anomaly detection. It would take a long time to build what metaplane can do in a few clicks. The alerts we get are accurate and have been from the very beginning - if the logic changes, it's very easy to reset the predictions. Metaplane also provides insights into table usage/queries - which is helpful to investigate long running queries, performance issues, most used tables, etc.

I would love to see a better user management in the software.

Very good so far, good for business detection. Good customer support and extremely helpful when taking the suggestion of client regarding features, improvement seriously.

This is great tool introducing AI monitor instead of hard monitor. Then, it would have suggestions instead of binary option like before.

Some feature is missing as well as room for integrate to many more services as other guys in market.

Metaplane leverages AI to predict when something might potentially go wrong. We have improved our data quality and monitoring of all our database objects and jobs and generally enhanced the proactiveness of our analysts and data engineers in spotting problems.

Custom Queries: Metaplane empowers the user to create custom queries in SQL for monitoring our data models.

Hard to tell now because metaplane has been constantly improving the software based on past feedback and now difficult to name something i dislike

For us Metaplane solves: 1) Monitoring ETL pipelines for failures or abnormal data 2) Monitoring modeled data for abnormalities before it gets to a business user 3) A simple and effective way to surface data issues via Slack or the UI. The benefit of using Metaplane is that we avoid failures and mistakes that are costly in terms of our data team's reputation and in terms of clients who are using their data to generate additional revenue and where the cost of inaccurate or missing data is high.

Metaplane is hands down the easiest and most useful data observability tool on the market. We use it to monitor failures and anomalies across all of our clients' data stacks. Most monitoring tools are difficult to set up and can’t differentiate between critical and non-critical failures, which results in notification fatigue. Metaplane is the opposite. Metaplane is quick to configure both from the start and on an ongoing basis. It automatically differentiates between critical and non critical failures, making it an extremely actionable data observability tool. With Metaplane we are able to easily and accurately test our own ETL pipelines and the outputs of our data models and catch errors before business users even know anything is wrong. This helps maintain our reputation as a data engineering org and also saves our clients a ton of time and money, especially when we catch errors related to data integrations that power revenue-generating flows or advertising data where the cost of mistakes is high. 
Metaplane is now a default part of our data stack whenever we add a new client.

We’re really satisfied customers and love the tool.
