"They are available on the Cloud, and the platform is very intuitive."
"Technical support is okay in terms of the help they provide."
"It's feature-rich. It has a wide range of features."
"What I found most valuable in Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics is that it's native only for Azure, so you get better performance and there's no issue. To explain further, many different types of data come, in particular, structured and unstructured data. For audit purposes, there's also unstructured data, so the most important aspect is that with Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics, you have the capability of using both technologies, meaning that you can use or mix structured and unstructured data which is important. This can also be done in Hadoop, and on other platforms, so you have everything in one place. You don't have to worry about how to manage both structured and unstructured data and where to store information. With Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics, you can take care of everything, particularly in Azure. The solution also provides you with many features apart from analytics, for example, storage which makes it better."
"The solution has been working well overall."
"Large amounts of data can be moved pretty fast using the solution."
"Reliability for the messages is key. RabbitMQ ensures your messages are safe. They are not deleted and stuff."
"Very sophisticated routing control and priority messaging capabilities"
"The most valuable feature for us is horizontal scaling."
"We have been able to set up a messaging system that facilitates data integration between the software modules that we sell."
"RabbitMQ will help to remove a lot of the complexities and create a loosely coupled codebase."
"The solution has really cool features to use. Its management console is excellent. You can utilize plugins to view the performance of the whole service on one network."
"The message routing is the most valuable feature. It is effective and flexible."
"The support and price could improve."

"We'd, of course, always like to pay less for the service if we can."
"The product could be more feature-rich."
"Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics could improve its compatibility with Visual Studio. One of the challenges for people moving from an on-premise to a cloud solution, such as Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics, is that you're constantly working in a browser. There are people that have been working for decades on desktop applications. For them to start working in a browser, it's quite a change. Allowing people to work and do their work inside Visual Studio than in the browser, would be a large advantage."
"This solution needs to have query caching so that if the same query is run and the results are available, it will return the data from the cache without having to re-run the query."
"The performance needs to improve in future releases."
"While the solution is flexible, sometimes this works against the user."
"The debugging capabilities and testing flexibilities need to be improved."
"They need to enhance integration with other Big Data products... to integrate with Big Data platforms, and to open a bi-directional connection between Greenplum and Big Data."
"I was struggling with installing a few things. It would be good if was somewhat similar to RedHat. There should be more documentation regarding installation troubleshooting."
"The support feature could benefit from some improvement in terms of accessibility and responsiveness."
"We would like to see Greenplum maintain a closer relationship with and parity to features implemented in PostgreSQL."
"The fact that a single queue can't be distributed across multiple instances/nodes is a major disadvantage."
"Implementation takes a long time."
"The user interface could be improved."
