Customer service and technical support vary, with unreliable response times despite valued 24/7 availability and remote access.
Sentiment score
7.1
Teradata support is highly rated for professionalism and resources, though some users note slow response times and technical support challenges.
I'll give them a nine for how responsive they are in technical support.
Whenever I have a question, they respond very quickly each time.
The support takes too much time to respond to callbacks.
The customer support for Teradata has been great.
Customer support is very good, rated eight out of ten under our essential agreement.
The technical support from Teradata is quite advanced.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.0
Acronis Cyber Protect is scalable, flexible, and performant, with minor issues affecting on-premise users more than cloud users.
Sentiment score
7.4
Teradata offers exceptional scalability and speed, though some users face challenges with hardware requirements and scaling involvement.
I would rate it eight on a scale from 1 to 10 for scalability, considering it will be multiple assets.
Acronis Cyber Protect is a scalable product.
This expansion can occur without incurring downtime or taking systems offline.
Teradata's scalability is great; it's been awesome.
Scalability is complex as you need to purchase a license and coordinate with Teradata for additional disk space and CPU.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.4
Acronis Cyber Protect is dependable, stable, with efficient backups, though updates and UI delays pose occasional challenges.
Sentiment score
8.3
Teradata is stable and reliable, with excellent uptime, minimal downtime, and seamless upgrades, though large dataset issues occur.
It ended up being at a point where we actually had to disable some features in order for the client to work through that specific purpose.
The stability of Acronis Cyber Protect is very high.
I find the stability to be almost a ten out of ten.
The workload management and software maturity provide a reliable system.
 

Room For Improvement

Acronis Cyber Protect could improve user interface, installation, compatibility, performance, support, pricing, and integration for enhanced functionality.
Teradata requires cost-effective improvements in cloud integration, scalability, UI, data processing, analytics, compatibility, support, and pricing.
It's only after we discovered there was a compatibility issue with the application that the client was running that we actually had to do a lot of log file shipping to Acronis themselves and getting solutions because of other problems.
Having something such as a community for peer-to-peer interaction would be a valuable asset.
The Protect environment should automatically secure the last backup screens to prevent any changes, even by an admin.
Unlike SQL and Oracle, which have in-built replication capabilities, we don't have similar functionality with Teradata.
If Teradata could provide a list of certified experts, that would be fantastic.
 

Setup Cost

Acronis Cyber Protect offers affordable licensing options, though some find it expensive in large environments, yet valued for capabilities.
Teradata offers advanced features and cloud flexibility, though enterprises need careful cost-benefit analysis for its premium pricing.
I would rate the price as nine out of ten.
Teradata is much more expensive than SQL, which is well-performed and cheaper.
Initially, it may seem expensive compared to similar cloud databases, however, it offers significant value in performance, stability, and overall output once in use.
We spent roughly $295,000 on setup costs.
 

Valuable Features

Acronis Cyber Protect combines easy interface, backup, and cybersecurity for versatile OS support with centralized management and cloud storage.
Teradata excels in fast query processing, scalability, robust security, and cross-platform integration, enhancing performance and reducing administrative effort.
The biggest benefit of Acronis Cyber Protect for my customers is that it is a great asset to protect business data and ensure data is in a secure Vault.
It also encrypts your backups and makes it safe, so it doesn't get affected with viruses.
The NASDAQ level CFS level backup is the feature I find most beneficial for our data protection strategy.
Teradata's security helps our organization meet compliance requirements such as GDPR and IFRS, and it is particularly essential for revenue contracting or revenue recognition.
The data mover is valuable over the last two years as it allows us to achieve data replication to our disaster recovery systems.

Featured Reviews

Mohamed Naeem - PeerSpot reviewer
Has ensured reliable data protection and quick recovery across various industries
The features of Acronis Cyber Protect that I find most useful for my customers are the Vault, data protection, and the ability to protect and access data anytime with the Vault feature. The AI-based antimalware feature in Acronis Cyber Protect is very effective in preventing cyber threats. AI is a good asset in protecting cybersecurity because it provides inception into threats and how to react with them before securing. It is very important and a great asset as a feature. The biggest benefit of Acronis Cyber Protect for my customers is that it is a great asset to protect business data and ensure data is in a secure Vault. Users can gain access to their data anytime. My future work will require mobility, so cloud-based access to data will be very beneficial.
Kirk Robinson - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved data quality, optimized reporting processes, and enabled predictive insights across business units
The limitation we encountered was related to speed, prompting us to increase our AWS cloud thresholds and benchmarks on the servers, adding more throughput. We have been testing that, but speed remains one of our key issues. The integration has been awesome because of the platforms and their usage, and usability is great. The most challenging aspect is finding Teradata resources, so we are focusing on internal training and looking for more Teradata experts. If Teradata could provide a list of certified experts, that would be fantastic. I rated Teradata a nine because the main area for improvement is the bandwidth of resources that could assist us in applying to our projects, specifically more certified and expert resources. The market share of Teradata professionals is limited, creating an issue for us.
