We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a robust system.""Transformation is a valuable feature of SAP NetWeaver. I can transform the data as per my needs or my client's needs. For example, flat tables can be transformed with respect to our requirements to combine multiple modules into one single table, and we can derive analytics.""It's an excellent over-all tool for managers to analyze their business.""A robust and efficient product.""Data modeling is a valuable feature.""The security and audit procedures are the most valuable features.""It provides us with proof of data, we can centralize all of the information, check it, and then provide the information to our users."

"It's one of the fastest databases in the market. It's easy to use. From a maintenance perspective it's a good product. The segmentation, or architecture of the product is different than other databases such as Oracle. So even in 10 years, the data distribution for such segments will not affect other segments. The query performance of the product, for complex queries, is very good. It has good integration with Hadoop.""With VMware Tanzu Greenplum, one can make a huge database table and analyze the queries by adding in the SQL command. Some hint or command for the query goes over the multi-parallel execution.""We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database.""A very good, open-source platform.""Very fast for query processing.""The loading speed is very good.""The most valuable feature for us is horizontal scaling.""It's super easy to deploy and it also supports different languages and analytics."

Cons
"The product could provide more features.""Connectors are complex, and it is difficult to understand or know which connector should be used. For instance, if I want to connect APIs, I will not be able to do it directly. I would have to go to the portal integration to get the data. Therefore, having simplified connectors will make things much easier.""The program is difficult to learn to use""I think more integration with other applications would be perfect.""Design and modeling could be simplified.""There are performance issues in terms of scalability and availability.""It is difficult when your native language is not English. It is difficult for us to explain our issue and also difficult for the technical team to explain a resolution to us."

"I saw some limitation with respect to the column store, and removing this would be an improvement.""they need to interact more with customers. They need to explain the features, especially when there are new releases of Greenplum. I know just from information I've found that it has other features, it can be used to for analytics, for integration with Big Data, Hadoop. They need to focus on this part with the customer.""Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient.""The initial setup is somewhat complex and the out-of-the-box configuration requires optimization.""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.""If you have a user consuming a huge load of resources, it takes down the entire system.""VMware Tanzu Greenplum needs improvement in the memory area and improved methods for quick access to the disc. So, one of the quick goals of Greenplum must work on enhancing access to the disc by adding hints in the database.""Lacks sufficient inbuilt machine-learning functions for complex use cases."
