Scripting is a great feature as is the ability to export almost anything
Scripting is a good feature if you have programming and scripting skills. It can be used without those skills but I think it's difficult to integrate them in PRISM. The best thing is that you can export almost anything whether it's graphics or data and you can change dates on the fly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You can export almost anything whether it's graphics or data."
"Designing the database is easy."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Cuts time to process huge amounts of data with efficient analytical queries."
"It has reduced a lot of reworking on maintaining indexes, partitions, etc."
"The cloud is ten times better than physical hardware; it is more cost-effective and the upgrade process is ten times easier."
"The product's scalability is great. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Teradata can be deployed on-premise, on the cloud, or in a virtual machine, which means customers can move without having to create their architecture all over again."
"The ease of deployment is useful so clients are up and running quickly in comparison to other products."
 

Cons

"Graphics are limited and could be improved."
"The following could be better: licensing, architecture openness, integration with other tools."
"The solution’s pricing, scalability, and technical support response time 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 initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code.​"
"It needs a teaching web site with more training on third-party tools used for BI."
"Teradata needs to pay attention to the cloud-based solution to make sure it runs smoothly."
"The solution needs improvement in its stability, support and pricing."
"The tool's flexibility and capacity for expansion are areas of concern where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price needs to be more competitive as Hadoop, Redshift, Snowflake, etc are constantly making way into EDW space."
"Teradata is not cheap, but you get what you pay for."
"The cost is substantial, totaling around $1.2 million, solely dedicated to upgrading the hardware."
"The price of Teradata is on the higher side, and I think that it where they lose out on some of their business."
"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."
"Teradata's licensing is on the expensive side."
"Teradata is currently making improvements in this area."
"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."
