We performed a comparison between Teradata and Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 features are the Shared-nothing architecture and data protection functionality."
"Teradata's most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"It has reduced a lot of reworking on maintaining indexes, partitions, etc."
"Building a data warehouse with Teradata has definitely helped a lot of our downstream applications to more easily access information."
"The performance is great, we are able to query our data in one operation."
"Teradata's pretty fast."
"It handles large amounts of information with a linear performance increase, in relation to a HW investment."
"Teradata can be deployed on-premise, on the cloud, or in a virtual machine, which means customers can move without having to create their architecture all over again."
"The product is reliable."
"The cloud is ten times better than physical hardware; it is more cost-effective and the upgrade process is ten times easier."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of running queries."
"Since I was working on the very basic, legacy systems, the memory thing was always a challenge. If Teradata is moving to the cloud, the space constraint or the memory issue that my company generally faces will eventually resolve, in time. What I'd like to see in the next release of Teradata is that it becomes full-fledged on the cloud, apart from better connectivity to various systems. For example, if I have to read or include a Python script, if I write some basic codes, I should be able to read even unstructured data. I know that it's not supported even in Snowflake, but at least semi-structured data support, if that can be a little more enhanced, that would be good."
"Teradata is an expensive tool. Like, if you're already using Microsoft products like Windows, they'll market all their products together. And with the rise of cloud technologies, companies will adopt solutions that offer them some privileges or facilities. Similar to how SAP does it in the market, so do Microsoft and other companies. Even Oracle and other such tools are quite commonly seen compared to Teradata's competitors in everyday solutions."
"I think the UI is not there yet. It could be improved by being more user-friendly."
"The solution is stable. However, there are times when we are using large amounts of data and we can see some latency issues."
"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."
"An additional feature I would you like to see included in the next release, is that it needs to be more cloud-friendly."
"Teradata's UI could be more user-friendly."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transaction processes, as well as the reporting system."
"The cost of Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse has room for improvement."
"It could be a bit more user-friendly."
"Stability-wise, we have had some issues with automation and the ability to handle large datasets."
