We performed a comparison between MicroStrategy and Teradata Data Lab based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is a very good enterprise tool with excellent enterprise functionality for security and user access. It also works perfectly in distribution, with everyone getting their own reports. It is very complex, so you can do whatever you want. If you want to make some data limitations, you can do it. I also like the internal in-memory engine with the Symantec layer. This makes the solution pretty powerful."
"The technical support is quite good."
"The reporting, the dashboards, and the new visualization functions. It is very easy for users to understand their data and dashboards."
"Provides seamless integration between browser-based BI and Mobile BI."
"It is scalable and integration-friendly."
"Scalability is fantastic. It can go from a small operation up to a gigantic operation. "
"The data governance leads people to trust the data that they have, and they know where to get it."
"Mobile brings reports/dashboards closer to the business user."
"It has increased the speed of reporting."
"In Data Lab, you can schedule any testing you want to do in production. You can take a small subset of data from production, copy it there, and run all your tests. It reduces your testing costs because it's all in the lab."
"There is room for improvement on the graphs."
"They need to do a better job In its ability to allow end users to produce their own reports, metrics, and self-service business intelligence."
"It needs better visualizations."
"I did not see any additional value of providing one button for installation on the whole platform if it was going to be installed for different servers. You would have to make customization every time. There was no additional value in an installer."
"The problem is the way that their metrics are designed. It can be difficult to understand what you're actually looking at. Then when you're comparing a document against the VI, you can't actually do that properly. So there are components, and there is a huge learning curve in the Enterprise Manager space. I think it would benefit them greatly if they were to exercise a significant amount of research and development in that space."
"We're starting to open it up to more and more people to give them the ability and start looking at these things themselves, but it's not the most intuitive system, Enterprise Manager that is, so it's tough. We're trying to bridge the gap between usability and who we let in the system, because you're not going to come in and just pick it up."
"The product is designed for enterprise. A lightweight version would be easier for a smaller workgroup."
"We haven't invested in the mobile platform. We want to invest, but the problem is the security. We are in the health domain, so we have PHI data."
"The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code."
"Their level of technical support is adequate. It could be better."
"If I want to implement an upgrade, I'd like to see how it will be different. Ideally, Data Lab should help me test production items and also do future things. Future releases should be downloadable and testable in Data Lab."
