Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Associate Director at Sequentis4.5I am a consultant and prefer Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse for its intuitive integration and frequent feature updates. It significantly enhances data analytics, inventory management, and marketing processes, although frequent patch releases can disrupt business due to required server reboots.
Architecture at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees4.5I use Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse for optimizing logistics SQL queries, specifically for truck loading and unloading. It's integrated with BI, mobile, and IoT solutions, proving valuable but expensive. Adjusting its pricing could enhance its appeal.
CEO at Smart Data-Driven Solutions3.5I've used Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse intermittently over the years; it's stable and integrates well with Azure, handles massive data loads, and has cost-saving features, but it's expensive and could benefit from dynamic scaling capabilities.
Sr. Data Engineer at Amrock4.5We utilize Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse for building our data warehouse and databases, benefiting from its scalability and many features. However, table statistics need improvement, sometimes requiring manual updates. Despite this, it provides a 100% return on investment.
Computer engineer at a engineering company with 5,001-10,000 employees4.0I use Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse to construct and manage a data warehouse through SQL queries. The interface is user-friendly and efficient, but performance slows significantly with many users or expensive queries. I have not tried any other similar solutions.
BI/Data Warehouse Analyst at a healthcare company with 501-1,000 employees4.0We primarily use Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse with SQL Server and Visual Studio in the health industry. Its stability and ease of use are highlights, although the ETL process could be more efficient. The columnstore index enhances performance significantly.
Senior Software Engineer at Eurofins4.0In my company, we use Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse to manage multi-location data loading in France. The SQL Server commands are invaluable for writing and calling stored procedures, though we've shifted to Azure Cloud for enhanced performance over SSIS.
