Teradata Reviews

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.

We use it as a data warehouse.

I like this solution's ease of design and the fact that its performance is quite good. It is stable as well.

The scalability could be better. The on-premises solution is always more complicated to scale.

The flexibility could be improved. The product is good if you know what you're planning to do. If you're designing as well, upfront, then it's fine. However, if you've made a mistake in the design work or your system, then it could be quite complex and expensive, and it may not preform well.

I've been using Teradata for around four years.

Teradata is a stable solution.

I've worked on the on-premises solution, and it is always more complicated to scale. We currently have hundreds of users.

We used Oracle Database before Teradata.

Teradata is quite a specific tool, so if you have suitable use cases, then I would recommend it. On a scale from one to ten, I would rate this tool at seven.

Faster query response time.

Concurrency is still a challenge, pricing is still high.

Oracle. We switched because of TD distributed architecture and it is the best product for EDW.

I am using Teradata Vantage Express and I'm using Teradata Studio along with it.

The most valuable feature of Teradata is the quick processing of large data.

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.

I have been using Teradata for approximately one week.

The solution is stable.

Teradata has high scalability.

I am the only one testing the solution in my company.

I rate the scalability of Teradata a ten out of ten.

I have not used the support.

The initial setup was done with the free Teradata Express. I downloaded and installed it. The implementation process was not easy to do and there are many steps involved. Other data warehousing tools are plug-and-play. It is a three to four-step process.

We followed some useful YouTube videos.

I rate the initial setup of Teradata a five out of ten.

I am using the free version of Teradata.

I rate Teradata a ten out of ten.

We tried to use case Teradata for a data warehouse system, but we had some problems in relation to the Teradata system, CDC tools, and source databases. We were unable to transfer data from HPE Integrity mainframe to Teradata.

It didn't improve the way our organization functions.

None.

There is a need to improve performance in high transaction processes, as well as the reporting system.

No issues with stability.

No issues with scalability.

I would rate tech support at eight out of 10.

Yes, we already had SAP IQ and were using it. We didn’t switch. We tried but it failed.

Very complex.

I rate Teradata two out of 10. At first, support was very good, but during and after they ended their operation in Turkey it was very bad. We had some agreements and they gave us some promises but...

We bought it three years ago but we couldn't use it in production. We have SAP IQ data warehouse now and I don't have a major problem. I would recommend SAP IQ for data warehouse.

If you are going to buy Teradata, you have to make a very solid contract with them.

Stats, QueryGrid Autostats with collecting stats automatically with the threshold values assigned, QueryGrid has multiple new features i.e data migration, extraction, tool loading, other utilities.

Business, Analytics, Hybrid.

It should be compatible and free on CLOUD/ AWS. Currently many DB's on AWS are free , Teradata is also on Amazon Web Services, but its charged and no documentation available to practice those LABS .

5 years.

No issues.

No issues.

Larger data warehouse / reporting and compatibility to analytics.

It was straightforward.

It architects the databases well. Right from data modelling, the correction appliance to be chosen, the queries hitting the system, strategic, tactical etc, and that business knowledge should be easy to understand to end developers.

The optimizer is the most valuable feature for us.

We are into DWBI (Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence) and Teradata is number one in the market for these solutions. They stood on top even for changing business needs and beat other competitors in benchmarking.

The Query Response time needs improving.

We have been using the solution for 12 years.

We did not encounter any issues with stability.

We did not encounter any issues with scalability.

I would rate the technical support at 9/10.

We never used a previous solution. In fact we migrated straight to Teradata.

There were a few ups and down with the initial setup but it's only one time during the initial phase.

Go for it.

It's already proven so we did not evaluate other industry solutions.

Go for it.

Business intelligence and data warehousing solutions for our client.

Auto-partitioning and indexing, and resource allocation on the fly.

Compatibility with more Big Data platforms.

I rate Teradata at eight out of 10. It provides high performance.
