We’re proud to host a global workforce that loves coming to work each day.

    Gartner has named us a Leader five times in the Magic Quadrant for Metadata Management, and again in 2025 for Data & Analytics Governance. Forrester has named us a Leader in its Data Governance Wave three times. IDC named us a Leader in its first-ever MarketScape for data catalogs.

  • A GREAT PLACE TO WORK

    Great Place to Work has named us one of the UK’s Best Workplaces, plus a Best Workplace in Tech and for Women. Inc. has named us one of its Best Workplaces five times, most recently in 2024, based entirely on anonymous employee surveys, not anything we wrote.
