Teradata Reviews

• The ability to process large amounts of data very quickly
• Its adaptability

Our business processes are much more efficient with Teradata's speed.

I'd like to see better processing on a transactional level and star schema optimization.

I've been using it for 13 years.

No issues encountered.

No issues encountered.

It's excellent, 10/10.

It's excellent, 10/10.

No other previous solution for these applications was used.

It's complex in terms of physical data modeling.

We used a hybrid team of both in-house staff, and a vendor team.

It's more than 100%.

It's not cheap but definitely worth it. It's been chosen by companies that tried cheaper solutions.

We also looked at DB2.

Know your data.

I mainly used Teradata as an EDW and for customizing and integrating CLDM, applying aggregation in the database, and analysis.

Teradata's best feature is its speed with historical data.

Teradata's UI could be improved.

I've been using Teradata for about four years.

Teradata's stability is good.

Teradata's scalability is one of its best features.

Teradata's licensing is on the expensive side.

I would rate Teradata nine out of ten.

Improved performance of ETL procedures, reporting. Decreased efforts, time, and number of staff supporting DWH.

• Scalability
• Functionality
• Performance

GUI of administrative tools is really outdated.

Nothing major, as far as I can recall.

No issues, scalability is a key feature of Teradata.

Support is on par with other vendors.

We used Oracle. Scalability and performance were the reasons we decided to try Teradata.

It was easy, the whole job was done by Teradata.

It is still a very expensive solution. While I very much like the pure technological supremacy of the software itself, I believe Teradata as a company needs to become more affordable. They are already losing the market to more flexible or cheaper competitors.

We did performance testing. We had a set of real life MicroStrategy reports. Our conditions were: Not allowed to redesign data model, not allowed to rewrite the queries, all queries should be generated by MicroStrategy, no aggregates. Teradata appeared to be way faster than a similarly configured (in terms of hardware) Oracle server.

Go with the Enterprise series and don't waste time and money on 25xx. Sooner or later you will migrate anyway, so don't even start with departmental solutions.

1. "Parallel Everything” design and smart Teradata Optimizer enables fast query execution across platforms.
2. Fully parallel MPP “shared nothing” architecture scales linearly across data, users, and applications, providing consistent and predictable performance and growth.
3. In-database data mining, virtual OLAP/cubes, geospatial and temporal analytics, custom and embedded services in an extensible open parallel framework, drive efficient and differentiated business insight.
4. Workload management options by user, application, time of day, and CPU exceptions.
5. Teradata Columnar/Teradata Temporal.
6. Compress on cold and intelligent multi-temperature data management.
7. Enhanced security.
8. Customer driven innovation in application migration and temporal.
9. Intelligent Scan Elimination.

Teradata solutions help organizations reduce IT, operations, and maintenance costs; enhance on-time delivery of products and services.

Teradata has proven technology with significant advantages in some key areas, and greater depth and experience in providing industry knowledge and solutions.

There is some improvement required on OLTP level and some analytical function is missing.

I've used it for almost five years.

Did not encounter any issues during deployment.

No stability issues encountered.

No issues encountered.

Customer Service:

They deliver the products to customers faster and with greater accuracy, i.e. within the agreed-upon due date .

Technical Support:

Teradata already had a excellent customer satisfaction and the rating would be eight out of 10.

No other solution used.

Teradata setup is straightforward and simple.

The implementation done mainly with the in-house teams and also some support of vendor team.

100%.

Teradata is easy-to-use for data warehouse and BI application. It's extremely fast and also advanced analytics work can be done in a very flexible manner.

We also looked at Oracle Exadata.

Teradata provides the analytical performance we need through its “parallel everything” design and industry leading optimizer to intelligently process all types of analytical and business intelligence queries.

Its primary use is a superfast database.

Things have started moving faster in my company, such as data retrieval happens more quickly.

We really enjoy the FastLoad, TPump, and MultiLoad features.

I think the UI is not there yet. It could be improved by being more user-friendly.

It is faster than Oracle, and that is what we need.

Viewpoint, the detailed query logs and performance statistics are valuable features. As a specialist for Teradata Performance, I find this data valuable for system tuning and query tuning.

Our enterprise data warehouse (EDW) runs on Teradata and it is the single version of truth for management decision-making and reporting.

The SQL Assistant is very basic. This tool can be improved for usability.

I have used this solution for around ten years.

There were no stability issues.

There were no scalability issues.

Technical support is good.

We have used Teradata since day one.

The setup was complex, but the work was outsourced to the Teradata Professional Services.

Teradata is not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

A cost-benefit analysis (CBA) needs to be done by the customers so as to make sure it serves the intended purpose.

Have a long-term vision, the ROI will not come in the short-term.

A cost-benefit analysis (CBA) needs to be done by the customers so as to make sure it serves the intended purpose.

It's very mature from as technology perspective.

The solution overall needs improvement in its stability, support and pricing. 

I have been using Teradata for 23 years. 

The stability is bad. 

Two clients are using the solution. 

The initial setup is straightforward.

Overall, I rate the solution a one out of ten.
