"With Select Star’s column-level lineage, we were able to see where we might have waste and how things were connected."

Stephanie Loesche

Director of Data Governance, Compliance & Process

"Select Star makes understanding how a model works significantly quicker (from) being able to track the lineage and review the code. Select Star quickly became our first port of call."

Data Manager

"With Select Star, we no longer rely on outdated Excel documents that haven’t been updated since their initial version. Instead, we now have digitized record management and history tracking, ensuring continuity and stability in our work even when a person in charge changes roles or leaves the company."

이윤재 (YoonJae Lee)

Digital Team manager

"To me, graphical lineage is beautiful but the summaries are more useful. In Select Star, you can easily see the source tables of a dashboard and you don't need to open everything up. You can go directly to where you want in the data model."

Alejo Buxeres

Director of Data & Analytics

"Select Star's lineage feature is huge in helping us know where to pick and update things so that everything runs the way it's supposed to. The end user doesn't even know we changed anything."

Kelly Carter

Lead Analytics Product & Operation Manager

"Select Star allows us to engage users early with exactly how each upstream change impacts their downstream workflows. This has built a lot of trust in the team and helps iron out thorny issues quickly."

Ben Thompson

Senior Staff Analytics Engineer

"With Select Star, we define our single source of truth for data, and have everyone to use it as the main go-to reference for data questions."

Derek Racine

Data Science Manager

"Taking on the task of synthesizing usage in dozens of tables with hundreds of columns was a very daunting task, but Select Star's Platform made it possible for us."

Ben Thompson

Senior Staff Analytics Engineer

"Our previous environment was a black box. With Select Star, we got a lot more visibility into the old platform and then had a much better idea about what to migrate across to the new platform."

Phil Warner

Head of Data

"It's hard to argue with Select Star's speed of results. We had everything that we had wanted to get in there. We started it up in the morning. It was there by the afternoon."

Kelly Carter

Lead Analytics Product & Operation Manager

"Select Star eliminated the data quality issues we had before and brought transparency in our data. Our engineers can now understand their impacts on downstream data easily since Select Star highlights and reports on differences right away."

Jisan Zaman

Senior Data Manager

"With Select Star, I can instantly trace a Tableau metric back to its source table — making updates faster and easier."

Kolby Nelson

Data Services Manager

"We chose Select Star because it automatically detects and displays column-level lineage, so it's easy to see where data comes from and flag issues in real-time."

Jisan Zaman

Senior Data Manager

"Making data easier to find and trust with Select Star has helped our teams move faster and focus on what matters."

Paras Doshi

Head of Data

"If someone's asking a question about certain metrics, Select Star can help us understand quickly – where does this already live? So it helps us ensure that anything new that we create isn't already being answered by a dashboard that exists."

Kelly Carter

Lead Analytics Product & Operation Manager

"With Select Star users can find data sets a lot more easily based on popularity, based on certification and also about the ownership of that data."

Ben Relf

Engineering Manager

"Select Star has been very beneficial in identifying objects that we actually no longer use. We've identified roughly 600 tables which actually aren't being used anymore."

Ben Relf

Engineering Manager

"Select Star is a very technical product that works great for the data team. It's also sufficiently non-technical and user-friendly enough for the business stakeholders to also go in there and see what's going on and how things are operating within the data platform."

Phil Warner

Head of Data

"With Select Star, we have clear visibility into our entire data landscape. Our audit preparation process is now significantly faster. What used to require 10 people can now be handled by just 2."

이윤재 (YoonJae Lee)

Digital Team manager

"Before Select Star, the same metric — like revenue — could show up in multiple places with different calculations, leading to conflicting reports."

Kolby Nelson

Data Services Manager

"Select Star played a significant role in improving data management at Wallbox. It truly streamlined our team’s work of data modeling and governance process."
