Atlan is friendlier than Collibra. But your catalog is still empty.

Atlan modernized the data catalog with a better UX. But the fundamental problem remains: it's a passive catalog that requires humans to fill it manually. Nobody has time. Myriade auto-documents 90% and goes beyond catalog to self-service analytics.

A modern UI doesn't solve the adoption problem

Atlan is a well-designed, developer-friendly catalog. Your team loved the demo. But six months later, it's the same story as every catalog: documentation coverage stalls at 20%, business teams ignore it, and your data engineers are still drowning in ad-hoc requests. The problem was never the interface, it's that manual documentation doesn't scale.

Manual effort at the core: Atlan makes documentation easier, but it still relies on humans to write and maintain it. Your team has pipelines to build and fires to fight.

Adoption plateau: initial enthusiasm fades. Coverage stalls because nobody prioritizes documentation work, it's always the last thing on the sprint.

Passive catalog: business teams don't browse catalogs. They want answers, not metadata. Atlan doesn't provide self-service analytics.

No data quality layer: documenting data doesn't mean the data itself is reliable. Duplicates, anomalies, and inconsistencies go undetected.
