"It works well in general."
"The most valuable features of SAP SQL Anywhere are the ease of use and the user interface is intuitive."
"The solution has great capabilities. The tool that instructs the internal database forward is easy to use and is very powerful."
"The most valuable feature is Vertica's performance and the ease of using the database."
"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."
"It has improved my organization's functionality and performance."
"Vertica's most outstanding features are the compression rates achieved and the speed of access of high volume data."
"The hardware usage and speed has been the most valuable feature of this solution. It is very fast and has saved us a lot of money."
"I have found the solution to be scalable."
"Allows us to take volumes and process them at a very high speed."
"We have had some stability issues with SAP SQL Anywhere, but I am not sure if it is an application or network issue. We sometimes have a large amount of data being queried and it cannot handle it."
"It is not as secure as it could be."
"We faced some challenges when trying to use the temporary tables feature."
"They could improve on customer service."
"They could improve the integration and some of the features in the cloud version."
"Vertica seems to scale well, except for one use case where you are on a multi-node cluster. For example, if you had a nine-node cluster, one node goes down, then the eight nodes don't scale, because the absence of the node is very apparent, which is a problem. If you have nine nodes or multiple nodes, the whole idea is that if one of those nodes goes down, then you should not see an impact on the system if you have enough capacity. Even though we have enough capacity, you can still see the impact of the one node going down."
"Support is an area where it could get better."
"The integration of this solution with ODI could be improved."
"Vertica offers a platform-as-a-service version, but their software-as-a-service solution is only available on AWS. They need to get a SaaS version on Azure and GCP as fast as possible."
"I have found that coding support could be simplified."
