Tech Director at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees

Works well with existing platform integration but could improve error messaging and technical support

I do not use SAP IQ's machine learning capabilities. I cannot assess the benefit of SAP IQ's distributed query processing for complex queries, as I am a non-technical operator. I am not sure if we use SAP IQ's data compression features. I think the compression we are doing is on the data storage level and not on the database level. I believe we do not use it, but I'm not certain. We do not utilize SAP IQ's support for unstructured data, as we do not have unstructured data. I do not have any strong opinions on SAP IQ's security features such as data encryption. It's not been something that has been much in focus, neither in our choice of the platform, nor in our daily operations. I guess they're satisfactory as they have not been a problem. I am not aware of the pricing and licensing of SAP IQ, as it's part of a bigger agreement, and I'm not the owner of that agreement. My impression is that SAP IQ is a rather expensive tool in terms of value for money. On a scale of 1-10, I rate SAP IQ a 7.

Users can effortlessly create tables and manage data, even without utilizing the graphical interface

The initial setup is difficult due to the lack of detailed documentation. While the documentation provides a high-level overview, it lacks the specific instructions needed for setup. We relied on assistance from the Treasure Data team, including their support team, to navigate the process. Additionally, various policies to consider further complicate the setup, which ultimately requires time. We handle a large volume of data, and ensuring everything runs smoothly is crucial. Previously, it would take three to four months for one deployment due to the need to create workflows, conduct functional and comprehensive testing to ensure everything works seamlessly, and then proceed with delivery.
