Harnessing advanced parallelism for top performance while embracing cloud trends
Teradata is primarily used for data warehousing across all customers. My clients have built-in applications that use Teradata, and their use varies from customer to customer, depending on the industry and database size. The primary function is as an OLAP analytical ecosystem Scalability is…

Standout features are real-time dashboards and powerful aggregation
This product has a powerful aggregating feature which is great. It also has its own APIs. Whenever the data comes in, it can be streamed out anywhere. It's the only solution that provides real-time dashboards. Tableau doesn't have this feature. The three variants of historical data, real-time data and predicted data from Spitfire, give more strength to LiveDatamart without any dependency on other products. The product is easy to set up with very low maintenance required.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Teradata effectively uses parallelism to the granular level, performing better than other databases."
"The feature that we find most valuable is its ability to perform Massive Parallel Processing."
"It has increased the speed of reporting."
"Their extensive experience in data warehousing, the platform's performance, and their strong reputation in the market are the most valuable."
"Teradata has good performance, the response times are very fast. Overall the solution is easy to use. When we do the transformation, we have all of our staging and aggregation data available."
"It has given our business the ability to gain insights into the data and create data labs for analysis and PoCs."
"The most valuable features are the Shared-nothing architecture and data protection functionality."
"The most valuable features of Teradata are that it is a massively parallel platform and I can receive a lot of data and get the queries out correctly, especially if it's been appropriately designed. The native features make it very suitable for multiple large data tasks in a structured data environment. Additionally, the automation is very good."
"You can create your own rules that include mathematic calculations."
"The solution has a powerful aggregating feature"
 

Cons

"Sometimes the large injestion takes days to load data, and some of our stored procedures take two to three days."
"The primary challenge with Teradata lies in its cost structure, encompassing subscription fees, software licenses, and hardware expenses."
"The cost of Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse has room for improvement."
"Teradata's pricing is quite high compared to Redshift, Synapse, or GCP alternatives."
"It could use some more advanced analytics relating to structured and semi-structured data."
"I've been using the same UI for 20 years in Teradata. It could use some updating. Adding more stability around Teradata Studio would be outstanding. Teradata Studio is a Java-based version of their tool. It's much better now, but it still has some room for improvement."
"Teradata is an expensive tool. Like, if you're already using Microsoft products like Windows, they'll market all their products together. And with the rise of cloud technologies, companies will adopt solutions that offer them some privileges or facilities. Similar to how SAP does it in the market, so do Microsoft and other companies. Even Oracle and other such tools are quite commonly seen compared to Teradata's competitors in everyday solutions."
"The solution could improve by having a cloud version or a cloud component. We have to use other solutions, such as Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Snowflake for the cloud."
"The solution's setup could be quicker and easier."
"Improvements need to be made on the load balancing side."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Teradata's licensing is on the expensive side."
"It comes at a notably high cost for what it offers."
"I rate the product price a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"We are looking for a more flexible cost model for the next version that we use, whether it be cloud or on-premise."
"It's a very expensive product."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for Teradata IntelliFlex, which is very expensive."
"The initial cost may seem high, but the TCO is low."
"The cost is substantial, totaling around $1.2 million, solely dedicated to upgrading the hardware."
"The solution might be considered a bit expensive because it competes with open-source products."
