Find out in this report how the two Relational Databases Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This is a wonderful database that is, in my opinion, underrated. Users are able to get the most out of my experience by taking advantage of its centralized environment."
"The actual interface is good."
"SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise is a good transactional database."
"Provides very good integration."
"They provide easy integration with other systems."
"I like that SAP ASE can match code and the database index to index data in the programming language. There are many other valuable features, such as the table buffer, tuning, and various control agents like dispatcher. SAP ASE can handle many different data types, including views, domains, data elements, structures, objects, and various table types that are most useful in the application. Its modularization technique is also handy."
"It's user-friendly, especially in the logistics field."
"I've never had any issues with scalability."
"It's a pre-configured appliance that requires very little in terms of setting-up."
"The most valuable features of Teradata are that it is a massively parallel platform and I can receive a lot of data and get the queries out correctly, especially if it's been appropriately designed. The native features make it very suitable for multiple large data tasks in a structured data environment. Additionally, the automation is very good."
"It is a solid database a lot of different tools to move data."
"Teradata features high productivity and reliability because it has several redundancy options, so the system is always up and running."
"It has given our business the ability to gain insights into the data and create data labs for analysis and PoCs."
"The key advantages are Performance when processing Terabytes of data and scalability."
"Teradata can be easily used in ETL mode transformations, so there is no need for expensive and inconvenient ETL tools"
"Cost-wise, SAP is still expensive compared to other available products."
"There could be some improvements in barcode scanning and RFID access."
"The solution should improve view partitioning. The documentation is very confined and available only for users. Distributors also would like access to it."
"I think that the solution needs to be positioned better within the market as it appears as though the Adaptive Server is being left out of the SAP scope."
"User interface could be more user friendly."
"SAP should refine its debugging method, and the process needs to be a little faster. It should use more Pragmas and fewer pseudocomments. I would like if SAP added more features based on advanced technologies, like artificial intelligence and voice control. The modularization and if-else techniques could also incorporate the latest technology to code and solve complex problems. The SAP Editor should be more elaborative, and it should allow many more types of statements for all uses."
"Because the solution is customized. we do occasionally face unique bugs. There are always some changes that need to be made here and there."
"The cloud is the new challenge and the new opportunity."
"The scalability could be better. The on-premises solution is always more complicated to scale."
"There is some improvement required on OLTP level and some analytical function is missing."
"I would like to see an improved Knowledge Base on the web."
"Teradata's pricing is quite high compared to Redshift, Synapse, or GCP alternatives."
"Sometimes the large injestion takes days to load data, and some of our stored procedures take two to three days."
"Teradata needs to pay attention to the cloud-based solution to make sure it runs smoothly."
"Query language and its functionality are rather limited, compared to Oracle or even SQL Server. However, it is possible to perform any kind of logic in it (though some workarounds may be required)."
