Find out in this report how the two Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of Vertica is the unmatchable database performance."
"The most valuable feature is Vertica's performance and the ease of using the database."
"We are also opening new areas of business and potential new revenue streams using Vertica's analytic functions, most notably geospatial, where we are able to run billions of comparisons of lat/long point locations against polygon and point/radius locations in seconds. "
"It maximizes cloud economics with Eon Mode by scaling cluster size to meet variable workload demands."
"Vertica is a great product because customers can compress and code data. The infrastructure that data warehouse solutions need is a commodity server so that customers don't have to invest in infrastructure."
"The feature I like best is performance. We use Red Tool and Red Job for the data warehouse and reporting. It's perfect. Performance is good, and it can return ad hoc queries very quickly. Of course, it's a cluster, so it's easy to scale."
"Integrated R and geospatial functions are helping us improve efficiency and explore new revenue streams. "
"The feature of the product that is most important is the speed. I needed a columnar database, and its speed is what it's built to do, and so that's what really does differentiate Vertica from its competitors."
"After creating a RabbitMQ service, they provide you with a sort of web management dashboard."
"Helps us to achieve large-scale analytics."
"The message routing is the most valuable feature. It is effective and flexible."
"It can be configured to be a very fast message broker. I like the stability, the built-in admin tools and plugin architecture."
"Companies can scale the solution, so long as they have server room."
"The most valuable feature is that it's really customizable."
"Simple and straightforward admin portals: Made it easy for users and worked out excellently for our requirements"
"The product's reliability is the most valuable feature."
"We are looking for a cheaper deployment for the solution. Although we did a lot of benchmarks, like Redshift. We tried Redshift, it didn't work. It didn't work out for us as well."
"Whatever's out, the core is not always as great as the engine, especially their first version."
"Some of our small to medium-sized customers would like to see containerization and flexibility from the deployment standpoint."
"The biggest problem is the cost of cloud deployment."
"Documentation has become much better, but can always use some improvement."
"If you do not utilize the tuning tools like projections, encoding, partitions, and statistics, then performance and scalability will suffer."
"Promotion/marketing must be improved, even though it is a very useful product at very good price, it is not as "popular" as it should be."
"Vertica offers a platform-as-a-service version, but their software-as-a-service solution is only available on AWS. They need to get a SaaS version on Azure and GCP as fast as possible."
"The product has to improve the crisis management, especially in memory issues."
"Their implementation is quite tricky. It's not that easy to implement RabbitMQ as a cluster."
"One of the disadvantages, not a disadvantage with the product itself, but overall, is the expertise in the marketplace. It's not easy to find a Greenplum administrator in the market, compared to other products such as Oracle."
"There are some security concerns that have been raised with this product."
"I’d like this dashboard to use web sockets, so it would actually be in real time. It would slightly increase debugging, etc."
"Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient."
"If you have a user consuming a huge load of resources, it takes down the entire system."
"Extra filters would be helpful."
