Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."The most valuable feature of this solution is performance."
"It performs very well overall."
"We are able to monitor daily jobs, so if there is anything that needs to be done then we can do it."
"It is a very stable database."
"Data collection and reporting are valuable features of the solution."
"Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse provides good firewall processing in terms of response time."
"The most valuable feature for me is querying."
"The most valuable features are the performance and usability."
"A conventional and easily defined way to build a data warehouse or a layer of data marts."
"The solution scales well on the cloud."
"Teradata is a great, industry-leading data warehousing product that has MPP architecture."
"It has reduced a lot of reworking on maintaining indexes, partitions, etc."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"I've never had any issues with scalability."
"The functionality of the solution is excellent."
"Teradata has good performance, the response times are very fast. Overall the solution is easy to use. When we do the transformation, we have all of our staging and aggregation data available."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of running queries."
"The cloud is ten times better than physical hardware; it is more cost-effective and the upgrade process is ten times easier."
"The product is reliable."
"More tools to help designers should be included."
"Sometimes, the product requires rolling back to its previous version during a software update. This particular area could be enhanced."
"We'd like to see it be a bit more compatible with other solutions."
"Concurrent queries are limited to 32, making it more of a data storage mechanism instead of an active DWH solution."
"The solution is expensive and has room for improvement."
"I think that the error messages need to be made more specific."
"The product does not have all of the features that the native products have."
"This solution would be improved with an option for in-memory data analysis."
"There is some improvement required on OLTP level and some analytical function is missing."
"It would help to make scaling easier with a reduced cost. "
"It's primarily designed for big projects and therefore, the pricing is pretty high. It's not suitable for smaller companies."
"Teradata needs to pay attention to the cloud-based solution to make sure it runs smoothly."
"We tried to use case Teradata for a data warehouse system, but we had some problems in relation to the Teradata system, CDC tools, and source databases. We were unable to transfer data from HPE Integrity mainframe to Teradata."
"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."
"It needs a teaching web site with more training on third-party tools used for BI."
"GUI of administrative tools is really outdated."
"The cost of Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse has room for improvement."
"Stability-wise, we have had some issues with automation and the ability to handle large datasets."
"It could be a bit more user-friendly."
