The leaders in Data Governance

Two guys, Piotr & Michał, meet at the Technical University of Gdansk, Poland. Logic Systems, a small lifestyle/self-employment software and consulting company is born.

We start working on our first BI/DW project for a new customer – a gas company with 1 million customers.

To efficiently support a data warehouse for another customer we build a simple documentation tool – tables with metadata collected with script, descriptions and ER diagrams, and a web interface. It helps everyone find and understand structures in the data warehouse, fix issues quickly, and develop with more ease and confidence.

New exciting project and customer – data warehouse and investment reporting for wealth manager in the UK. Logic Systems promises to deliver full data warehouse documentation to reduce the fear of vendor lock-in. The idea for Dataedo as a product is born.

We launch the website and store and release the first version of Dataedo. Our first customer purchases two licenses that same month.

We split the IT services and Dataedo businesses into separate entities. Logic Systems is renamed Dataedo and, from late 2019, focuses solely on building, selling, and supporting the documentation tool. The services team forms a new company, Lsys, to keep serving existing customers.

The company moves fully remote after the first lockdown. We release Dataedo Portal - a lightweight web application to complement the Desktop app. We also hire the first employee in the US and have been named a 2020 Gartner Peer Insights Customers' Choice for Metadata Management Solutions.

We hire Łukasz Preiss to lead our development team. This year also marks the launch of Dataedo 10, which introduces Data Lineage and Data Profiling capabilities to our solution.

We expand heavily into lineage and reporting with later 10.x updates. We introduce automated Column-Level Lineage, Report Catalog with Power BI connector, and Reference Data Management (Lookups).

We move to a next-generation platform built entirely around our vision of a collaborative enterprise data catalog, and adopt a new year-based versioning scheme starting with Dataedo 23.1. This year we release multiple governance capabilities including grouping assets into Domains, AI-powered Auto-Documentation, and several new connectors.

Dataedo 24.x matures into a comprehensive data governance hub with source-level data lineage, workflows, and the Steward Hub for automated metadata suggestions. By year's end, we launch our native Data Quality Module, letting teams build custom validation rules and track data health metrics right inside the catalog.

Founder Piotr Kononow passes the CEO role to Łukasz Preiss, choosing to refocus on his passion for product innovation while Łukasz steps up to drive enterprise growth. Meanwhile, Dataedo 25.x introduces advanced Data Quality features like Custom SQL Rules, as well as Data Products and Browser Extension.

We continue to improve Dataedo to serve you as a complete data governance solution. So far this year, we released Dataedo 26.1 and 26.2, introducing completely reworked, data-based system of data classification with two-way metadata sync. We also overhauled our ER Diagrams & Descriptions UI. Stay tuned for what's next!
