Low-code pipelines have accelerated team collaboration and simplified CI/CD development
Developers can share within Coalesce.io. I would rate Coalesce.io as nine out of ten. We do not track any metrics at the moment. Coalesce.io is deployed in a private cloud. When Coalesce.io needs to be updated or maintained, we must declare the maintenance window. We cannot use the tool during maintenance, but we try to keep maintenance time low to prevent any issues. I don't have much information about security features. Coalesce.io offers capabilities that we managed to use, but we also use external tools. The Coalesce.io integration was planned to be smooth because before it, we used another tool, so we had to migrate what we had on the previous tool to Coalesce.io and then switch off when everything was done. I suggest Coalesce.io to everyone who wants a collaborative environment deeply integrated with Snowflake that supports developers in their job.

Delivers consistent performance and enables advanced analytics across complex data environments
Teradata stands out as a solid platform for managing and analyzing large volumes of data. Its architecture allows information to be processed efficiently while maintaining stable performance, even in highly demanding environments. One of its most notable strengths is the ability to run complex queries at high speed, which is essential for organizations that require timely and reliable analytics. Teradata offers a well-integrated ecosystem that supports working with different types of data and enables scalability as organizational needs grow. Its focus on advanced analytics, integration with modern business intelligence tools, and the ability to operate both on-premise and in the cloud make it a versatile solution for data warehousing and large-scale processing. Teradata's stability, technological maturity, and the availability of strong documentation and best practices are noteworthy. I consider Teradata to be a tool with great potential for any organization looking to enhance its analytical capabilities, optimize data processing, and move toward more data-driven decision-making. Teradata stands out as a solid platform for managing a large volume of data in different projects. Its architecture allows information to be processed efficiently while maintaining stable performance, even in high-demanding environments. A well-integrated AI ecosystem that supports working with different types of data and enables scalability as organizational needs grow across different kinds of enterprises or organizations. The focus on advanced analytics integration with modern business intelligence tools is particularly valuable. Teradata combines a powerful parallel process and optimizing SQL engine with a highly scalable architecture allowing businesses to execute complex queries and analytics in real-time. It supports multi-cloud, hybrid, and on-premise environments, giving organizations flexibility to choose the setup that best aligns with their strategy. One of the biggest strengths is the ability to unify disparate data sources and support high concurrency, enabling different teams, such as analytics, operations, BI, and data science, to access consistent, trusted data across the enterprise.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Coalesce.io has impacted our organization positively by providing a low-code approach, supporting different sources so we don't need to write custom code, and offering a collaborative tool suitable for teams with a large number of developers."
"It has a solid set of tools and consulting services."
"I found all parts --loading, transformation, processing & querying work in parallel, and end-to-end-- to be valuable."
"I like writing preformance queries for preprocessing on AWS Cloud."
"The product's scalability is great. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The ease of deployment is useful so clients are up and running quickly in comparison to other products."
"The solution's banking model, called FSLDM (Financial Services Logical Data Model), is sophisticated and good."
"Teradata combines a powerful parallel process and optimizing SQL engine with a highly scalable architecture allowing businesses to execute complex queries and analytics in real-time."
"Teradata can be easily used in ETL mode transformations, so there is no need for expensive and inconvenient ETL tools"
 

Cons

"At the moment, the only improvement I see is deeper support for AI agents to support the developer's job."
"I choose 8 out of 10 for Teradata because there is always the scope for improvement."
"It needs a teaching web site with more training on third-party tools used for BI."
"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."
"There are some ways that the handling of unstructured data could be improved."
"It's primarily designed for big projects and therefore, the pricing is pretty high. It's not suitable for smaller companies."
"The SQL Assistant is very basic. This tool can be improved for usability."
"The solution is stable. However, there are times when we are using large amounts of data and we can see some latency issues."
"Since I was working on the very basic, legacy systems, the memory thing was always a challenge. If Teradata is moving to the cloud, the space constraint or the memory issue that my company generally faces will eventually resolve, in time. What I'd like to see in the next release of Teradata is that it becomes full-fledged on the cloud, apart from better connectivity to various systems. For example, if I have to read or include a Python script, if I write some basic codes, I should be able to read even unstructured data. I know that it's not supported even in Snowflake, but at least semi-structured data support, if that can be a little more enhanced, that would be good."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It comes at a notably high cost for what it offers."
"The price of Teradata is on the higher side, and I think that it where they lose out on some of their business."
"Teradata is not cheap, but you get what you pay for."
"The price of Teradata could be less expensive."
"Price is quite high, so if it is really possible to use other solutions (e.g. you do not have strict requirements for performance and huge data volumes), it might be better to look at alternatives from the RDBMS world."
"In the past, it turned out that other solutions, in order to provide the full range of abilities that the Teradata platform provides plus the migration costs, would end up costing more than Teradata does."
"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."
"Teradata's licensing is on the expensive side."
