WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
It's more convenient when you are already using dbt and don't want to set up a separate workflow for testing data when it can be done with dbt inside the data warehouse. Also the thing re_data does well is letting you create time-based metrics about your data quality instead of just tests (a lot of the tests can be rewritten to that) That allows you to do a couple of things more than GE, you can for example easily visualize or look for anomalies in those. You can also compute tests much more efficiently. Research about computing metrics as a good way of doing data quality was actually done by the team behind deequ: http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol11/p1781-schelter.pdf I'm the author, so obviously I'm a bit biased :)
