Low-code pipelines have accelerated team collaboration and simplified CI/CD development
Developers can share within Coalesce.io. I would rate Coalesce.io as nine out of ten. We do not track any metrics at the moment. Coalesce.io is deployed in a private cloud. When Coalesce.io needs to be updated or maintained, we must declare the maintenance window. We cannot use the tool during maintenance, but we try to keep maintenance time low to prevent any issues. I don't have much information about security features. Coalesce.io offers capabilities that we managed to use, but we also use external tools. The Coalesce.io integration was planned to be smooth because before it, we used another tool, so we had to migrate what we had on the previous tool to Coalesce.io and then switch off when everything was done. I suggest Coalesce.io to everyone who wants a collaborative environment deeply integrated with Snowflake that supports developers in their job.

Delivers consistent performance and enables advanced analytics across complex data environments
Teradata stands out as a solid platform for managing and analyzing large volumes of data. Its architecture allows information to be processed efficiently while maintaining stable performance, even in highly demanding environments. One of its most notable strengths is the ability to run complex queries at high speed, which is essential for organizations that require timely and reliable analytics. Teradata offers a well-integrated ecosystem that supports working with different types of data and enables scalability as organizational needs grow. Its focus on advanced analytics, integration with modern business intelligence tools, and the ability to operate both on-premise and in the cloud make it a versatile solution for data warehousing and large-scale processing. Teradata's stability, technological maturity, and the availability of strong documentation and best practices are noteworthy. I consider Teradata to be a tool with great potential for any organization looking to enhance its analytical capabilities, optimize data processing, and move toward more data-driven decision-making. Teradata stands out as a solid platform for managing a large volume of data in different projects. Its architecture allows information to be processed efficiently while maintaining stable performance, even in high-demanding environments. A well-integrated AI ecosystem that supports working with different types of data and enables scalability as organizational needs grow across different kinds of enterprises or organizations. The focus on advanced analytics integration with modern business intelligence tools is particularly valuable. Teradata combines a powerful parallel process and optimizing SQL engine with a highly scalable architecture allowing businesses to execute complex queries and analytics in real-time. It supports multi-cloud, hybrid, and on-premise environments, giving organizations flexibility to choose the setup that best aligns with their strategy. One of the biggest strengths is the ability to unify disparate data sources and support high concurrency, enabling different teams, such as analytics, operations, BI, and data science, to access consistent, trusted data across the enterprise.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Coalesce.io has impacted our organization positively by providing a low-code approach, supporting different sources so we don't need to write custom code, and offering a collaborative tool suitable for teams with a large number of developers."
"The solution scales well on the cloud."
"It has massive parallel processing ability to do large amounts of concurrent querying."
"Designing the database is easy."
"It's very mature from a technology perspective."
"The most valuable features are the large volume of data and the structuring of the data to optimize it and get very optimal data warehouse solutions for customers."
"There are several features of Teradata that I like. One of the most basic is the indexes. I also like that it provides lower TCO. It also has the optimizer feature which is a good feature and isn't found in other legacy systems. Parallelism is also another feature I like in Teradata because when you are running or hosting on multiple systems, you have this shared-nothing architecture that helps. Loading and unloading in Teradata are also really helpful compared to other systems."
"Teradata's best feature is its speed with historical data."
"The ability to handle machine data parallel processing is the most valuable feature of Teradata."
 

Cons

"At the moment, the only improvement I see is deeper support for AI agents to support the developer's job."
"They should add more connectors to different platforms."
"The following could be better: licensing, architecture openness, integration with other tools."
"Teradata is somewhat late in adopting cloud technology."
"It would help to make scaling easier with a reduced cost. ​"
"When backups are performed, it locks the database, preventing user access, which is a concern."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transaction processes, as well as the reporting system."
"If I want to implement an upgrade, I'd like to see how it will be different. Ideally, Data Lab should help me test production items and also do future things. Future releases should be downloadable and testable in Data Lab."
"Stability-wise, we have had some issues with automation and the ability to handle large datasets."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"​When looking into implementing this product, pricing is the main issue followed by technical expertise​."
"Teradata pricing is fine, and it's competitive with all the legacy models. On a scale of one to five, with one being the worst and five being the best, I'm giving Teradata a three, because it can be a little expensive, when compared to other solutions."
"It comes at a notably high cost for what it offers."
"The cost is substantial, totaling around $1.2 million, solely dedicated to upgrading the hardware."
"Teradata is expensive, so it's typically marketed to big customers. However, there have been some changes, and Teradata is now offering more flexible pricing models and equipment leasing. They've added pay-as-you-go and cloud models, so it's changing, but Teradata is generally known as an expensive high-end product."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for Teradata IntelliFlex, which is very expensive."
"In the past, it turned out that other solutions, in order to provide the full range of abilities that the Teradata platform provides plus the migration costs, would end up costing more than Teradata does."
"Teradata is expensive but gives value for money, especially if you don't want to move your data to the cloud."
