We performed a comparison between SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse and Vertica based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It provides us with proof of data, we can centralize all of the information, check it, and then provide the information to our users."
"It is a robust system."
"Transformation is a valuable feature of SAP NetWeaver. I can transform the data as per my needs or my client's needs. For example, flat tables can be transformed with respect to our requirements to combine multiple modules into one single table, and we can derive analytics."
"The security and audit procedures are the most valuable features."
"It's an excellent over-all tool for managers to analyze their business."
"A robust and efficient product."
"Data modeling is a valuable feature."
"Its projections and encoding are excellent tools for tuning large volumes."
"Allows us to take volumes and process them at a very high speed."
"Speed and resiliency are probably the best parts of this product."
"The most valuable feature of Vertica is the ability to receive large aggregations at a very quick pace. The use case of subclusters is very good."
"Partition and join back to node are easy and simple for DBAs."
"DBAs don’t need to add a partition every month/quarter like with other DBs."
"We are also opening new areas of business and potential new revenue streams using Vertica's analytic functions, most notably geospatial, where we are able to run billions of comparisons of lat/long point locations against polygon and point/radius locations in seconds. "
"The feature I like best is performance. We use Red Tool and Red Job for the data warehouse and reporting. It's perfect. Performance is good, and it can return ad hoc queries very quickly. Of course, it's a cluster, so it's easy to scale."
"The product could provide more features."
"It is difficult when your native language is not English. It is difficult for us to explain our issue and also difficult for the technical team to explain a resolution to us."
"I think more integration with other applications would be perfect."
"There are performance issues in terms of scalability and availability."
"Connectors are complex, and it is difficult to understand or know which connector should be used. For instance, if I want to connect APIs, I will not be able to do it directly. I would have to go to the portal integration to get the data. Therefore, having simplified connectors will make things much easier."
"Design and modeling could be simplified."
"The program is difficult to learn to use"
"When it is about to reach the maximum storage capacity, it becomes slow."
"Fact-to-fact joins on multi-billion record tables perform poorly."
"Metadata for database files scale okay, but metadata related to tables/columns/sequences must be stored on all nodes."
"They could improve the integration and some of the features in the cloud version."
"The geospatial functionality could be designed better."
"I have found that coding support could be simplified."
"It's hard to make it slow for a small data volume. For large volumes, it's hard to make it work. It's also hard to make it faster, and to make it scale."
"In a future release, we would like to have artificial intelligence capabilities like neural networks. Customers are demanding this type of analytics."
