Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It provides us with proof of data, we can centralize all of the information, check it, and then provide the information to our users."
"The security and audit procedures are the most valuable features."
"It is a robust system."
"A robust and efficient product."
"It's an excellent over-all tool for managers to analyze their business."
"Data modeling is a valuable feature."
"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."
"Very sophisticated routing control and priority messaging capabilities"
"The most valuable feature is that it's really customizable."
"The stability of this solution was very good."
"The solution's best feature is its exceptional speed, delivering efficient utilization of resources."
"The most valuable feature for us is horizontal scaling."
"The product's reliability is the most valuable feature."
"We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database."
"Scalable (Massive) Parallel Processing (MPP) – The ability to bring to bear large amounts of compute against large data sets with Greenplum and the EMC DCA has proven itself to be very effective."
 

Cons

"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."
"I think more integration with other applications would be perfect."
"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."
"The product could provide more features."
"The program is difficult to learn to use"
"Design and modeling could be simplified."
"There are performance issues in terms of scalability and availability."
"RabbitMQ is clearly better supported on Linux than it is on Windows. There are idiosyncrasies in the Windows version that are not there on Linux."
"This solution struggled with multi-regional synchronization."
"If you're outside IP address range, the clustering no longer has all the features which is problematic."
"Their implementation is quite tricky. It's not that easy to implement RabbitMQ as a cluster."
"Other tools besides RabbitMQ provide good TPS and HA."
"Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient."
"The product is pretty hard to configure."
"I saw some limitation with respect to the column store, and removing this would be an improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"All SAP products are expensive."
"The licensing cost is high for SAP NetWeaver compared to that for other products."
"Pricing is based on the number of user IDs and tyhe user ID works across a suite of products."
"It is an open-source platform. Although, we have to pay for additional features."
"The pricing is okay."
"The product is available for free use since it is an open-source technology."
"The price is pretty good."
"It is the best product with best fit for price/performance customer objectives."
"It is an open-source product."
"This is an open source solution."
"On a scale of one to five, with five being the most competitive pricing, I would rate this solution as a four."
