Consolidates tools and streamlines cross-platform database work

There is not a lot that I have to complain about with DbVisualizer. Over the years, as I have mentioned, they have continued to enhance the interface and the databases that are supported, but I do not think there is a lot of room for improvement. Most improvements will come from changes in the marketplace, such as new database features that need to be interacted with or perhaps more support for new data types and databases that are going to be supporting AI. Some of that, as we have seen thus far, is not necessarily the game changer that we would have thought. Integrating a co-pilot for SQL queries would be an interesting feature in the future.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Timed queries that add their result to the result grid for every execution are helpful."

"DbVisualizer is invaluable to me because it allows me to work from enterprise database systems like Oracle to more emerging database providers like CockroachDB, and can scale to anything up or down from SQLite or standard PostgreSQL."

"Actions like exporting grids to Excel or other tools is a very easy task."

"There are several features of Teradata that I like. One of the most basic is the indexes. I also like that it provides lower TCO. It also has the optimizer feature which is a good feature and isn't found in other legacy systems. Parallelism is also another feature I like in Teradata because when you are running or hosting on multiple systems, you have this shared-nothing architecture that helps. Loading and unloading in Teradata are also really helpful compared to other systems."

"Things have started moving faster in my company, such as data retrieval happens more quickly."

"Teradata is a great, industry-leading data warehousing product that has MPP architecture."

"The most valuable feature is the ease of uploading data from multiple sources."

"It has massive parallel processing ability to do large amounts of concurrent querying."

"Cuts time to process huge amounts of data with efficient analytical queries."

"The product's scalability is great. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"It has a solid set of tools and consulting services."

More Teradata pros

Cons

"Sometimes, I feel that the startup time takes a bit more time than needed."

"One thing I would like to see changed is having the JDBC drivers in a fixed location outside of the application package."

"The solution needs improvement in its stability, support and pricing."

"They should add more connectors to different platforms."

"Teradata is somewhat late in adopting cloud technology."

"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing indicates that while it was not part of my work, I found Teradata to be somewhat costlier when considering other options."

"Needs compatibility with more Big Data platforms."

"The cost of Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse has room for improvement."

"It would help to make scaling easier with a reduced cost. "

"Teradata is a bit late for the cloud."

More Teradata cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for DbVisualizer is fair."

"A license with a few years of support is a good and valuable option."

"The price of Teradata could be less expensive."

"The price needs to be more competitive as Hadoop, Redshift, Snowflake, etc are constantly making way into EDW space."

"Teradata is currently making improvements in this area."

"The price of Teradata is expensive. However, what they deliver they are outstanding. If you're looking for an inexpensive solution to run a database, this isn't your tool. It's the Ferrari of databases for data warehousing."

"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."

"Teradata is expensive but gives value for money, especially if you don't want to move your data to the cloud."

"The price of Teradata is on the higher side, and I think that it where they lose out on some of their business."

"It's a very expensive product."
