We performed a comparison between Teradata and VMware Tanzu Greenplum based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Teradata is a great, industry-leading data warehousing product that has MPP architecture."
"It has a solid set of tools and consulting services."
"Cuts time to process huge amounts of data with efficient analytical queries."
"Parallel processing features have helped to easily dump any size of data and retrieve data with great performance."
"Building a data warehouse with Teradata has definitely helped a lot of our downstream applications to more easily access information."
"It's very mature from a technology perspective."
"We did performance testing. We had a set of real life MicroStrategy reports. Our conditions were: Not allowed to redesign data model, not allowed to rewrite the queries, all queries should be generated by MicroStrategy, no aggregates. Teradata appeared to be way faster than a similarly configured (in terms of hardware) Oracle server."
"Viewpoint, the detailed query logs and performance statistics are valuable features."
"Tanzu Greenplum's most valuable features include the integration of modern data science approaches across an MPP platform."
"Very fast for query processing."
"A very good, open-source platform."
"It's super easy to deploy and it also supports different languages and analytics."
"Pivotal Greenplum's shared-nothing architecture."
"We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database."
"The loading speed is very good."
"It works very well with large database queries."
"We tried to use case Teradata for a data warehouse system, but we had some problems in relation to the Teradata system, CDC tools, and source databases. We were unable to transfer data from HPE Integrity mainframe to Teradata."
"The following could be better: licensing, architecture openness, integration with other tools."
"Teradata's UI could be more user-friendly."
"The scalability could be better. The on-premises solution is always more complicated to scale."
"The solution is stable. However, there are times when we are using large amounts of data and we can see some latency issues."
"Sometimes the large injestion takes days to load data, and some of our stored procedures take two to three days."
"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."
"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."
"they need to interact more with customers. They need to explain the features, especially when there are new releases of Greenplum. I know just from information I've found that it has other features, it can be used to for analytics, for integration with Big Data, Hadoop. They need to focus on this part with the customer."
"The installation is difficult and should be made easier."
"Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt machine-learning functions for complex use cases."
"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."
"Implementation takes a long time."
"The initial setup is somewhat complex and the out-of-the-box configuration requires optimization."
"Extra filters would be helpful."
