Facilitating data-driven decisions with powerful reporting and case management
The most valuable features are case management and reporting. The Unified-CXM Platform also helps in data aggregation and offers the capability to export data in different formats and integrate it with common CRMs like Microsoft 360 or Salesforce. Additionally, the ability to manage access to the data and ensure visibility to third parties is quite beneficial. The solution allows me to take data-driven decisions and identify gaps within the business by collecting and labeling data extensively.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's very, very fast"
"It effectively has allowed us to remove over 20 portion copies of the data sets on other DB platforms for real-time operational reporting purposes."
"The solution's banking model, called FSLDM (Financial Services Logical Data Model), is sophisticated and good."
"The most valuable features are the Shared-nothing architecture and data protection functionality."
"A conventional and easily defined way to build a data warehouse or a layer of data marts."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"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."
"Teradata's most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"The most valuable features are case management and reporting."
 

Cons

"The solution is stable. However, there are times when we are using large amounts of data and we can see some latency issues."
"Query language and its functionality are rather limited, compared to Oracle or even SQL Server. However, it is possible to perform any kind of logic in it (though some workarounds may be required)."
"Stability-wise, we have had some issues with automation and the ability to handle large datasets."
"Teradata hardly supports unstructured data or semi-structured data"
"I would like more security and speed."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transaction processes, as well as the reporting system."
"Teradata is somewhat late in adopting cloud technology."
"I'm not sure about the unstructured data management capabilities. It could be improved."
"When onboarding new users, the platform requires a lot of fine-tuning, which demands certain expertise on the customer side."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution requires a license."
"Teradata is expensive, so it's typically marketed to big customers. However, there have been some changes, and Teradata is now offering more flexible pricing models and equipment leasing. They've added pay-as-you-go and cloud models, so it's changing, but Teradata is generally known as an expensive high-end product."
"Teradata pricing is fine, and it's competitive with all the legacy models. On a scale of one to five, with one being the worst and five being the best, I'm giving Teradata a three, because it can be a little expensive, when compared to other solutions."
"I rate the product price a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The cost of running Teradata is quite high, but you get a good return on investment."
"It comes at a notably high cost for what it offers."
"Teradata is currently making improvements in this area."
"It's a very expensive product."
