We performed a comparison between Teradata and Teradata IntelliFlex 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."It is a solid database a lot of different tools to move data."
"Improved performance of ETL procedures, reporting."
"It has massive parallel processing ability to do large amounts of concurrent querying."
"There are several features of Teradata that I like. One of the most basic is the indexes. I also like that it provides lower TCO. It also has the optimizer feature which is a good feature and isn't found in other legacy systems. Parallelism is also another feature I like in Teradata because when you are running or hosting on multiple systems, you have this shared-nothing architecture that helps. Loading and unloading in Teradata are also really helpful compared to other systems."
"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."
"A conventional and easily defined way to build a data warehouse or a layer of data marts."
"It handles large amounts of information with a linear performance increase, in relation to a HW investment."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The product's scalability is great. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It is very stable. It's 100% uptime. Speed and resilience are one of the greatest features of this product. In almost twenty years we've never had downtime, except for outages for patches and upgrades. We've never had a system failure in twenty years."
"IntelliFlex is easy to scale - one of its best features is that you can upscale it to the size you want."
"The solution's banking model, called FSLDM (Financial Services Logical Data Model), is sophisticated and good."
"Intelliflex is very scalable. In fact, scalability has improved 100 times by Intelliflex, in my personal opinion."
"Teradata needs to pay attention to the cloud-based solution to make sure it runs smoothly."
"The following could be better: licensing, architecture openness, integration with other tools."
"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."
"Sometimes the large injestion takes days to load data, and some of our stored procedures take two to three days."
"The current operational approach needs improvement."
"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."
"The cloud is the new challenge and the new opportunity."
"The capability to implement it with comparable performance across various private cloud environments, ensuring adaptability to different infrastructure setups would be beneficial."
"They should add more connectors to different platforms."
"The initial setup is complex because there are a lot of factors that come into play, including the amount of software and applications that require access."
"The solution’s pricing, scalability, and technical support response time could be improved."
"The only issue our company has with Teradata IntelliFlex is that it is not cost-effective because of the way the product has been designed."
"The reporting side wasn't very good in the past, but with the latest versions, it's getting better. Still, the friendliness of the PDC reporting and functionality needs to be improved."
