Dawiso is probably the most customizable and flexible catalog on the market. Thanks to its low-code capabilities, the platform can be tailored quickly and precisely to fit your organization’s specific needs.
You can configure nearly every aspect of Dawiso, create your own template
Ensures flexibility, so the tool adapts to your organization, not the other way around.
Yes, Dawiso goes beyond traditional governance functions. It supports business metadata through a dynamic business glossary, enables structured AI-powered documentation with customizable templates and defined relationships between data assets. Also includes both data and conceptual modeling features for organizing entities, attributes, and domains. Conceptual modeling allows you to visualize business processes, making complex structures easier to understand.This comprehensive approach creates a clear, business-aligned view of your data, not just a technical metadata repository.
Yes. We use a user-based pricing model, we don’t charge extra for additional use cases, databases, or tools generating metadata. You only pay for real users, not for growing your data landscape. Also, avoid expensive fees that restrict access to key contributors. See our pricing plans: https://www.dawiso.com/pricing
Specific needs: evaluate the organization's specific data management requirements. Ask the following questions:
If you're already at a higher data governance maturity level, you can opt for a more developed solution that offers more features.
Budget and resources: assess your budget and tell yourself how many people you need seats for. When you buy a data solution, you are buying several licenses. You need to determine how many seats and viewers you need to include in the process, which will determine the final price of the product. For smaller businesses, "large-scale complexity" solutions can be expensive and resource-intensive. For beginners, it's better to look for more affordable all-in-one basic packages to help them get from maturity 0 to higher levels of data governance maturity.
Answer the questions:
User-friendliness: consider the ease of implementation and user-friendliness of the solution. An overly complex system may hinder adoption. It is better to choose a simpler solution (definitely when you want to just start with governance).Clients often already think about where they will be in three years when choosing a solution, and solutions offering basic features seem insufficient.Which is unfortunate thinking if they are still on maturity level one and want to behave like someone two or three levels above. The important thing is to learn how to work with these tools first, which is usually harder with more complex tools.
Regulatory requirements: consider the needs of your industry and compliance. Does the tool help me to comply with all regulations?
Yes, it’s designed for everyone in your organization, not just data specialists. The platform is designed to be intuitive and accessible, allowing business users to easily find, understand, and work with data, while also providing the depth and flexibility that technical teams need for advanced metadata management, lineage analysis, and integration. By bridging the gap between business and IT, Dawiso supports true cross-functional collaboration around data.
