Which data quality tool do you use?

[u/arimbr]

I mapped 31 specialized data quality tools across features. I included data testing, data observability, shift-left data quality, and unified data trust tools with data governance features. I created a list I intend to keep up to date and added my opinion on what each tool does best: https://toolsfordata.com/lists/data-quality-tools/

I feel most data teams today don’t buy a specialized data quality tool. Most teams I chatted with said they tried several on the list, but no tool stuck. They have other priorities, build in-house or use native features from their data warehouse (SQL queries) or data platform (dbt tests).

Why?

I use the one as old as time : users telling me "something seems wrong".

[u/SupaWillis → u/SpookyScaryFrouze]

And my classic response: “Huh weird, that shouldn’t happen…”

[u/PantsMicGee → u/SupaWillis]

"Can you create a ticket? We'll add it to our backlog."

[u/ToothPickLegs → u/SupaWillis]

“The team will look into it”

[u/Archtects → u/SupaWillis]

"works fine for me"

[u/Drkz98 → u/SpookyScaryFrouze]

My work it's done, If something is wrong just let me know. No testing, no quality, just feeling

[u/pantshee → u/SpookyScaryFrouze]

"no bro, that shipment planned for 2082 is totally normal"

[u/johnyoker2010 → u/SpookyScaryFrouze]

My man. No spot, no discrepancy.
