Centralize your alerts with the Notification Center

What if you could guarantee your most important messages were seen 75% of the time? That’s the reality for in-app notifications, which achieve an open rate that demolishes traditional methods like email and push alerts. By integrating notifications this way, organizations can cut through the noise and deliver critical, actionable insights right where their users are already working.

What’s new: Notification Center

We are excited to introduce the Collibra Notification Center, our powerful solution to combat notification fatigue and bring focus back to your workday. This new feature consolidates all your platform alerts, tasks, and mentions into a single, centralized in-app inbox. Instead of hunting through emails or missing critical updates, you now have one place to see everything that requires your attention, transforming a noisy stream of information into a manageable and prioritized task list.

The true power of the Notification Center lies in its deep personalization. You are in complete control, with the ability to choose the frequency of alerts and select your preferred delivery channel—whether in-app, email, or directly in integrated tools like Slack. By giving you one place to manage everything, this feature ensures you get the critical information you need, right when you need it, creating an efficient workflow tailored to how you work best.

How Notification Center helps

In the world of data governance, staying informed is critical. But what happens when "staying informed" means drowning in a constant stream of emails, pings, and alerts? Important tasks get lost, approval cycles drag on, and "notification fatigue" becomes a real barrier to productivity. The challenge isn't a lack of information, but a lack of control over how it's delivered. That's why we built the Collibra Notification Center—to move beyond the noise and give you a single, centralized hub to manage the alerts that matter most.

The Notification Center helps users solve for:

• Notification overload and inbox clutter: It moves actionable alerts out of crowded email inboxes and into a single, dedicated hub, drastically reducing noise and making it easier to manage communications
• Missed updates and critical tasks: By centralizing all notifications, it prevents important tasks—like approvals, mentions, or data quality alerts—from getting lost or overlooked in a sea of other messages
• Notification fatigue: It combats user burnout from constant, irrelevant pings by allowing individuals to personalize their experience. Users can manage the frequency of alerts and choose which types of notifications they want to receive
• Inefficiency and context switching: By providing one place to see and manage all outstanding tasks and alerts, it saves users time and reduces the mental load of having to check multiple systems or channels to figure out what needs their attention

How Notification Center works

The Collibra Notification Center centralizes all critical platform alerts into a single, manageable hub, accessible from the top navigation bar. It consolidates a wide range of notifications, including @mentions, workflow tasks, assessment assignments, and AI Governance updates, organizing them into clear tabs like "All," "Tasks and issues," and "Conversations." From this unified view, you can quickly access the relevant asset or task, mark notifications as read or unread, and flag important items to prioritize your work.

Building upon this, the enhanced Notification Settings will empower users to personalize how often they are notified (e.g., Daily, Weekly, Monthly), through their preferred channels (Email, Slack, or MS Teams), and for specific types of notifications, helping to prevent communication overload and ensure timely action.

The Notification Center is deeply woven into the broader Collibra Platform, acting as a central nervous system for user engagement. It is directly triggered by the Workflow Engine, respects the roles and permissions defined in the Operating Model to ensure the right people are notified. By allowing users to manage alerts from a single point, it unifies the user experience and makes governance a more cohesive and less intrusive part of their daily work, reinforcing the power of a single, integrated platform.

Why you should be excited

Our new Notification Center will help the entire organization from data steward to data consumer:

For the Data Steward and Data Owner: As a steward, you are on the front lines of data governance, and your biggest challenge is often managing the sheer volume of tasks. You're likely drowning in email alerts for every workflow approval, @mention, and data quality issue, making it easy for critical tasks to get lost in the noise. This means less fatigue, faster response times, and the ability to focus your valuable time on what truly matters.

For the Business Analyst and Data Consumer: As a data consumer, your goal is to get trusted answers quickly so you can drive analysis. The Notification Center provides clarity and transparency. When a steward requests changes or a colleague replies to your question, you get a clear, centralized notification. You can instantly see the status of your requests and tasks without having to hunt for information. This reduces friction and guesswork, allowing you to spend less time chasing down answers and more time using trusted data to make an impact.
