"The most valuable feature is that I can use CDH for almost all use cases across all industries, including the financial sector, public sector, private retailers, and so on."
"We experienced many issues when we started working with Hadoop 3.0 in the Cloudera 6.0 version, so there are a lot of things that need to improve. I believe they are working on that."
"We're now able to store large volumes of data through Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop. We're able to push large volumes of data to the platform, and that used to be a challenge, especially when storing a terabyte of information. This is the area where Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop improved the organization."
"The most valuable feature is Kubernetes."
"CDH has a wide variety of proprietary tools that we use, like Impala. So from that perspective, it's quite useful as opposed to something open-source. We get a lot of value from Cloudera's proprietary tools."
"The most valuable feature is Impala, the querying engine, which is very fast."
"The solution is reliable and stable, it fits our requirements."
"Speed contributes to large capacity."
"It is a back end for our SSIS, MicroStrategy,, Tableau. All of these are connecting to get the data. To do so we are also using our analytics which is built on the data."
"For me, as an end-user, everything that I do on the solution is simple, clear, and understandable."
"The performance of the solution is its most valuable feature. The solution is easy to administer as well. It's very user-friendly. On the technical side, the architecture is simple to understand and you don't need too many administrators to handle the solution."
"The need for administration involvement is quite limited on the solution."
"Data compression. It was relatively impressive. I think at some point we were getting 4:1 compression if not more."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"The governance aspect of the solution should be improved."
"The solution is not fit for on-premise distributions."
"The competitors provide better functionalities."
"This is a very expensive solution."
"I would like to see an improvement in how the solution helps me to handle the whole cluster."
"The one thing that we struggled with predominately was support. Because it was relatively new, support was always a big issue and I think it's still a bit of an ongoing concern with the team currently managing it."
"While the deployed product is generally functional, there are instances where it presents difficulties."
"Cloudera's support is extremely bad and cannot be relied on."
"Administration of this product is too tough. It's very complex because of the tools which it's missing."
"The most valuable features of this solution are robustness and support."
"This product is being discontinued from IBM, and I would like to have some kind of upgrade available."
"I'm not sure of IBM's roadmap currently, as the solution is coming up on its end of life."
"Disaster recovery support. Because it was an appliance, and if you wanted to support disaster recovery, you needed to buy two."
"In-DB processing with SAS Analytics, since this is supposed to be an analytics server so the expectation is there."
"The solution could implement more reporting tools and networking utilities."
"The Analytics feature should be simplified."
