Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"we are able to easily export data. When directors need financial information, we can go in the system and export the data, then send it out so they have it ready and available. If they are not in the office, we can email it to them. In addition, all the managers are now more on top of their expenses and their budget.""With the combination of 24/7 global support and their community, there was great customer service, tech support, and community support.""The ability to do write back and visualization, with minimal IT development orientation.""It allows people to quickly create dashboards with reports.""The ability to create a data model and have it in testing within a week is fantastic.""The tool seems to have a lot of ways to handle scaling.""The flexibility and the user-experience are the most valuable features of the solution.""We can build reports super fast.​"

"In Data Lab, you can schedule any testing you want to do in production. You can take a small subset of data from production, copy it there, and run all your tests. It reduces your testing costs because it's all in the lab.""It has increased the speed of reporting."

Cons
"I would like to see better relationships with the partners.""​One of the things that I would like to see is the ability to have a rule directly referenced on the cubes.​""Building similar models entirely from scratch could be made quicker with transfer abilities between databases and capsules.""What could be better is the manual... nowadays, most people use a web client, but on the Board manual website, a lot of the information is only about the Windows client. If they could update that, it would be helpful.""We can't delete entities and cubes in Boards because it interrupts our whole data model.""​My analysts have used the technical support. Sometimes they have felt like they did not receive the answer that they needed, or you have to go and upgrade in order to address a problem. ​""The product can be improved by making it possible to know where cubes are used.""The setup was a bit complex."

More Board Cons →

"​Their level of technical support is adequate. It could be better.​""​The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code.​""If I want to implement an upgrade, I'd like to see how it will be different. Ideally, Data Lab should help me test production items and also do future things. Future releases should be downloadable and testable in Data Lab."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Find a partner who will take responsibility for the implementation, and be available for support."
  • "​In terms of the pricing, it was reasonable. BOARD is not the lowest in the market, but it was reasonable for us."
  • "It is not the cheapest product on earth, but you get so much. It provides good value for money."
  • "The solution is quite expensive, if it is made cheaper then we can have more clients. I rate it four out of ten."
  • More Board Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "​I would advise others to look into migration and setup as a fixed price and incorporate a SaaS option for other Teradata services​."
  • "​When looking into implementing this product, pricing is the main issue followed by technical expertise​."
