Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I think it scales really well and as long as you take enough time to learn a little bit about it, it works really well.""Some of the best features are stored procedures, parallelism, and different indexing strategies.""The solution is stable.""The analytics engine is not bad at forecasting predictions.""The standout feature of IBM Db2 Warehouse, which is particularly valuable for large enterprises, is its ability to handle big data.""It can be mounted on the cloud, which is a huge plus. If the client, for example, starts small with on-premise deployment and then it rapidly needs to grow, we can transfer this to the cloud easily.""Provides good security and reliability."

In fact, scalability has improved 100 times by Intelliflex, in my personal opinion.""The product's scalability is great. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""It is very stable. It's 100% uptime. Speed and resilience are one of the greatest features of this product. In almost twenty years we've never had downtime, except for outages for patches and upgrades.

Cons
"The biggest challenge anyone could have with Db2 Warehouse is their references or online resources and documentation. They are very, very, very limited on the web.""The areas of the solution that is needing the most improvement are separating compute from storage, elasticity, which means scaling up and then retracting.""In terms of improvement, IBM Db2 Warehouse should be more scalable.""Lacks sufficient documentation and particularly in Spanish.""The biggest problems we have is when the backup solution is failing or slow and we run out of log space, which has happened probably a couple of times in the last four years.""IBM Db2 Warehouse needs to improve its interface.""There should be more material available for training and training should be free.""There were some initial challenges with IBM Db2 Warehouse about eight months ago when I worked in this environment. When I coordinated with IBM support, they mentioned that the memory was insufficient for our needs. Our business environment required significantly more memory than the previous cluster could provide. Consequently, we have worked closely with on-site IBM technical personnel to address this issue."

More IBM Db2 Warehouse Cons →

"They should add more connectors to different platforms.""The reporting side wasn't very good in the past, but with the latest versions, it's getting better. Still, the friendliness of the PDC reporting and functionality needs to be improved.""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.""The solution’s pricing, scalability, and technical support response time could be improved.""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."
