Cons
"The query is slow if we don't optimize it.""I would like the ability to do more real-time type updates instead of batch-oriented updates.""I would like to see better visualization features.""It could offer more development across the solution.""More tools to help designers should be included.""The feature updates on the on-premise solution come very slowly, and it would be great if they came faster.""We find the cost of the solution to be a little high.""​Concurrent queries are limited to 32, making it more of a data storage mechanism instead of an active DWH solution."

More Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse Cons →

"There are performance issues in terms of scalability and availability.""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""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.""Design and modeling could be simplified.""The product could provide more features.""I think more integration with other applications would be perfect."
