Featured Reviews

Aditi Bhardwaj - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides an ease of access and an automated mapping feature
We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records. Above that, we need to look for alternative solutions. They could provide automated transformation or mapping features around 10 to 15 independent data objects. We could have a default mark or limit of free usage for standard objects. It will be helpful. Additionally, we can have more integrations with large data volumes as we need a lot of exercises to handle the files in case of complex sites.
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"DataLoader is cost-effective since it is free."
"I find DataLoader's ability to easily integrate with external keys valuable, which is a bit more challenging with DBM."
"he product’s most valuable feature is ease of access."
"I've never had any issues with scalability."
"It's the same as your visual database. I like the fast load feature for data, the BTQ solution is very good, and storage procedures are very fast."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten."
"It is a stable program."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of uploading data from multiple sources."
"It has a solid set of tools and consulting services."
"Cuts time to process huge amounts of data with efficient analytical queries."
"I found all parts --loading, transformation, processing & querying work in parallel, and end-to-end-- to be valuable."
 

Cons

"We need help with large data migrations. It only works well for a few thousand records or less than a million records."
"DataLoader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions."
"Dataloader has limitations, including constraints with file sizes and transactions. Additionally, at times it can be slow, and when integrating DBM, we find it more complex than Dataloader."
"GUI of administrative tools is really outdated."
"The solution is stable. However, there are times when we are using large amounts of data and we can see some latency issues."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transaction processes, as well as the reporting system."
"Teradata is somewhat late in adopting cloud technology."
"The only issue our company has with Teradata IntelliFlex is that it is not cost-effective because of the way the product has been designed."
"I would like to see more integration with many different types of data."
"​The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code.​"
"Teradata needs to expand the kind of training that's available to customers. Teradata only offers training directly and doesn't delegate to any third-party companies. As a result, it's harder to find people trained on Teradata in our market relative to Oracle."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is inexpensive and economical."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for Teradata IntelliFlex, which is very expensive."
"I am using the free version of Teradata."
"Teradata is expensive, so it's typically marketed to big customers. However, there have been some changes, and Teradata is now offering more flexible pricing models and equipment leasing. They've added pay-as-you-go and cloud models, so it's changing, but Teradata is generally known as an expensive high-end product."
"Make sure you have the in-house skills to design and support the solution, as relying on external sources is extremely costly and tends to lock you into specific platforms, tools, and paradigms."
"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."
"The solution requires a license."
"The product cost is high for what the client gets. There may be more cost-effective solutions for small and medium-sized organizations."
"It is still a very expensive solution. While I very much like the pure technological supremacy of the software itself, I believe Teradata as a company needs to become more affordable. They are already losing the market to more flexible or cheaper competitors."
