"Because Big Data Appliance allows me to have a single source of truth, it means I have clean data that can be monetized and leveraged to gain more insights with real-time reports from the dashboard."
"This is a comprehensive solution that is easy to deploy."
"We really enjoy the FastLoad, TPump, and MultiLoad features."
"The most valuable features are the Shared-nothing architecture and data protection functionality."
"I like this solution's ease of design and the fact that its performance is quite good. It is stable as well."
"Viewpoint, the detailed query logs and performance statistics are valuable features."
"Teradata's most valuable feature is that it's easy to use."
"The feature that we find most valuable is its ability to perform Massive Parallel Processing."
"The flexibility in design is very good."
"Teradata can be easily used in ETL mode transformations, so there is no need for expensive and inconvenient ETL tools"
"From a technical perspective, Big Data Appliance could be improved with more innovation in the AI and machine-learning parts instead of relying on Cloudera."
"The product should be simplified for the average user."
"It seems like the deployment of repositories has become more difficult in later versions of the product rather than easier."
"The cloud is the new challenge and the new opportunity."
"Query language and its functionality are rather limited, compared to Oracle or even SQL Server. However, it is possible to perform any kind of logic in it (though some workarounds may be required)."
"It's primarily designed for big projects and therefore, the pricing is pretty high. It's not suitable for smaller companies."
"I would like to see an improved Knowledge Base on the web."
"Needs compatibility with more Big Data platforms."
"Teradata needs to pay attention to the cloud-based solution to make sure it runs smoothly."
"The solution is stable. However, there are times when we are using large amounts of data and we can see some latency issues."
"Teradata could improve by being less complicated. There are some aspects that are not available on the Unix server and a Unix system is required to access some data, such as in case of an emergency."
