Featured Reviews

Theresa McLaughlin - PeerSpot reviewer
Quick development enables seamless data processing despite occasional support issues
There were times when the product would fail during development without an apparent reason. The support structure changed; initially, we received great support, however, it later became less reliable due to licensing issues and a tiered support system. Licensing negotiations were problematic, affecting our product usage. For instance, our licenses were temporarily lost during negotiations when an agreement couldn't be reached.

Provides all the frameworks and makes it easy to create environments for multiple projects
The best thing is that it provides all the frameworks and makes it easy to create environments for multiple projects using Anaconda. It is easy for a beginner to learn to use Anaconda. Comparatively, it is easier than using virtual environments or other environments because of the Conda environment. However, there are many things in Anaconda that people need to be aware of, so it can be challenging.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Its initial setup is easy."
"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"I think the most valuable feature for Alteryx in a health facility is that it permits cleaning, organizing, and merging of databases such as Excel and Access."
"Alteryx offers a cognitive approach to better understand data and purposes."
"The product's most valuable features include its ease of use for non-technical users and machine learning capabilities."
"It saves time on a lot projects. ​"
"The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is the intelligence suite."
"The most valuable feature is the set of libraries that are used to support the functionality that we require."
"The documentation is excellent and the solution has a very large and active community that supports it."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its cloud-based nature, allowing accessibility from anywhere. Additionally, using Jupyter Notebook makes it easy to handle bugs and errors."
"The most advantageous feature is the logic building."
"It helped us find find the optimal area for where our warehouse should be located."
"Anaconda is an open-source platform that can integrate numerous other kits and models in one place."
"It has a lot of functionality available, supports many libraries, and the developers are continually improving it."
"The most valuable feature is the Jupyter notebook that allows us to write the Python code, compile it on the fly, and then look at the results."
"It handles large amounts of information with a linear performance increase, in relation to a HW investment."
"Teradata's pretty fast."
"Teradata features high productivity and reliability because it has several redundancy options, so the system is always up and running."
"Teradata is a great, industry-leading data warehousing product that has MPP architecture."
"​Building a data warehouse with Teradata has definitely helped a lot of our downstream applications to more easily access information."
"​We really enjoy the FastLoad, TPump, and MultiLoad features.​"
"The most valuable features are the Shared-nothing architecture and data protection functionality."
"Auto-partitioning and indexing, and resource allocation on the fly are key features."
 

Cons

"There were times when the product would fail during development without an apparent reason."
"The solution just lacks in terms of data visualization. That is why we use Tableau and Qlik in our organization. They help to pick up the slack. If data visualization was added, Alteryx would be a very good tool, and much more complete."
"Even when it already includes some AI models, this area could be improved."
"There are no ready models to use in analytics."
"Mastering Alteryx, a comprehensive solution, takes time. However, once you have gained proficiency with its layout and how to drag, drop, and connect components, it becomes remarkably easy, yet still thorough."
"The data integration component could most likely be improved to increase enterprise scalability."
"The gallery could improve in Alteryx. Additionally, if there was a Conditional Join feature it would be beneficial. Since I do not have this feature I have to use Python scripts."
"A feature which allows the user to be able to click on an output (in a file browser) and see the creation of the module would be fantastic."
"The process could be streamlined as the number of actions needed to deploy is quite large compared to other tools."
"It also takes up a lot of space."
"Having a small guide or video on the tool would help learn how to use it and what the features are."
"Anaconda should be optimized for RAM consumption."
"Anaconda can't handle heavy workloads."
"When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it."
"The solution would benefit from offering more automation."
"The ability to schedule scripts for the building and monitoring of jobs would be an advantage for this platform."
"Teradata is a bit late for the cloud."
"​The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code.​"
"The current operational approach needs improvement."
"The initial setup is complex because there are a lot of factors that come into play, including the amount of software and applications that require access."
"From my perspective, it would be good if they gave better ITIN/R plugins to use the data for AI modeling, or data science modeling. We can do it now; however, it could be more elegant in terms of interfacing."
"Data ingestion is done via external utilities and not by the query language itself. It would be more convenient to have that functionality within its SQL dialect."
"It's primarily designed for big projects and therefore, the pricing is pretty high. It's not suitable for smaller companies."
"Teradata could improve by being less complicated. There are some aspects that are not available on the Unix server and a Unix system is required to access some data, such as in case of an emergency."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The seat is too expensive."
"In order to have designers, and, if you want to collaborate, you have to buy a server. If the designer is $5,000, and if you want a server, you have to pay $80,000."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"ROI is huge. There are some secondary benefits, like analysts getting their post 5 PM time back or the ability to shorten all closing processes to a half or less."
"Its price should be lower. The key thing that we see is that talking about ROI is an important element at the time of purchase. Cost becomes a factor in every discussion. Justifying the ROI for these kinds of workflows is always a challenge, and the only way to counter the challenge is by addressing the pricing."
"A designer and scheduler for $13K/year in total is pretty much earning you the money back in time and in other resources."
"It's very expensive. I'd rate it a four out of ten in terms of the price. It's great for big companies but not for small companies."
"In my opinion, it's actually quite expensive."
"The product is open-source and free to use."
"My company uses the free version of the tool. There is also a paid version of the tool available."
"The tool is open-source."
"The licensing costs for Anaconda are reasonable."
"Anaconda is free to use, but in terms of hardware costs, you might need heavy GPUs to run CUDA and other demanding tasks."
"The cost of running Teradata is quite high, but you get a good return on investment."
"Teradata is a very expensive solution."
"It's a very expensive product."
"The price of Teradata could be less expensive."
"Teradata's licensing is on the expensive side."
"In this day and age, we want to get things done quickly. So, we go to the AWS Marketplace."
"We had a lot of parties involved when purchasing from the AWS Marketplace. They are very flexible and aggressive in trying to close the deal. They are good at what they have to offer and listening to the customer. It's a two-way street."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for Teradata IntelliFlex, which is very expensive."
