"Partition and join back to node are easy and simple for DBAs."
"I enjoy the cybersecurity and backup features."
"Speed and resiliency are probably the best parts of this product."
"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."
"I think more integration with other applications would be perfect."
"The product could provide more features."
"The program is difficult to learn to use"
"There are performance issues in terms of scalability and availability."

"Suboptimal projection design causes queries to not scale linearly."
"Monitoring tools need to be lightweight. They should not take up heavy resources of the main server."
"There are a lot of limitations within this product and it makes things extremely hard for developers. It lacks Stored Procedure, packages, and triggers like other RDBMs."
"They could improve the integration and some of the features in the cloud version."
"Very bad support, I would rate it two out of 10."
"Promotion/marketing must be improved, even though it is a very useful product at very good price, it is not as "popular" as it should be."
"Metadata for database files scale okay, but metadata related to tables/columns/sequences must be stored on all nodes."
