We performed a comparison between IBM Netezza Performance Server, SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse, and Teradata based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."The data governance prospect... from what I've seen, that is a really powerful tool as well, to help with data lineage and keeping track of that."
"The performance is most important to me, and it helps our ability to make business decisions quickly."
"The most valuable feature would be the fact that it has been running for awhile in an appliance format."
"The underlying hardware that IBM provides with this appliance is made for a specific purpose, to serve performance on a large amount of data, and to do analytics as well. It is faster, when you compare it to any other product."
"Distribution concurrency control."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server is a cost-effective solution."
"The most valuable features of the IBM Netezza Performance Server are the NPS server because of the reduced maintenance and overall good performance."
"We are able to execute very complex queries. Over 90 percent of our query executions are one second or less. We do millions of queries everyday."
"Data modeling is a valuable feature."
"The security and audit procedures are the most valuable features."
"It's an excellent over-all tool for managers to analyze their business."
"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 provides us with proof of data, we can centralize all of the information, check it, and then provide the information to our users."
"A robust and efficient product."
"It is a robust system."
"It has massive parallel processing ability to do large amounts of concurrent querying."
"Teradata's most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"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."
"Teradata's best feature is its speed with historical data."
"Teradata has good performance, the response times are very fast. Overall the solution is easy to use. When we do the transformation, we have all of our staging and aggregation data available."
"Things have started moving faster in my company, such as data retrieval happens more quickly."
"It has given our business the ability to gain insights into the data and create data labs for analysis and PoCs."
"Concurrency limit needs to be increased somewhat."
"The scalability is not as expected. The capacity in the black box is not enough."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server could improve its interface, support for big data, and APA-based connectivity should be available."
"In terms of features that I would like to see, one is the ability to actually scale out an architecture. Right now, if you buy one, it's fixed. There is no scale-up availability at all."
"Our main problem with it is concurrency. When there are too many users running Netezza at the same time, this is when we have the most complaints."
"We are not able to scale. The only way to scale is to get another appliance, but we have a customers who would need us to hydrate the data between the two appliances, and Netezza does not do that."
"LIke Teradata, we can’t add a node/SPU to the existing appliance."
"Oracle Exadata's security features, like TDE encryption, are missing in IBM Netezza Performance Server."
"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."
"The program is difficult to learn to use"
"Design and modeling could be simplified."
"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 product could provide more features."
"I think more integration with other applications would be perfect."
"There are performance issues in terms of scalability and availability."
"I've been using the same UI for 20 years in Teradata. It could use some updating. Adding more stability around Teradata Studio would be outstanding. Teradata Studio is a Java-based version of their tool. It's much better now, but it still has some room for improvement."
"Limited interest and success in some areas make us hesitate about upgrading."
"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."
"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."
"The SQL Assistant is very basic. This tool can be improved for usability."
"The scalability could be better. The on-premises solution is always more complicated to scale."
"Teradata's UI could be more user-friendly."
