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.

Standout features are real-time dashboards and powerful aggregation
This product has a powerful aggregating feature which is great. It also has its own APIs. Whenever the data comes in, it can be streamed out anywhere. It's the only solution that provides real-time dashboards. Tableau doesn't have this feature. The three variants of historical data, real-time data and predicted data from Spitfire, give more strength to LiveDatamart without any dependency on other products. The product is easy to set up with very low maintenance required.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup was straightforward."
"It has increased the speed of reporting."
"If the priority is to find the best tool that can be relied on with less maintenance and good performance, Teradata is definitely a good option, but again, homework must be done to see which one suits the data workloads."
"BTEQ is the best feature of Teradata, as it allows me to execute multiple queries such as select, insert, update, and delete in a single script, handle errors, automate running multiple SQL statements, and schedule ETL jobs, making it lightweight and scriptable, unlike SQL Assistant."
"Teradata's best feature is its speed with historical data."
"It has reduced a lot of reworking on maintaining indexes, partitions, etc."
"Teradata features high productivity and reliability because it has several redundancy options, so the system is always up and running."
"Teradata's pretty fast."
"The solution has a powerful aggregating feature"
"You can create your own rules that include mathematic calculations."
 

Cons

"Teradata's UI could be more user-friendly."
"Teradata is an old data warehouse, and they're not improving in terms of new, innovative features."
"The capability to implement it with comparable performance across various private cloud environments, ensuring adaptability to different infrastructure setups would be beneficial."
"The current operational approach needs improvement."
"Stability-wise, we have had some issues with automation and the ability to handle large datasets."
"Teradata's pricing is quite high compared to Redshift, Synapse, or GCP alternatives."
"Teradata should focus on functionality for building predictive models because, in that regard, it can definitely improve."
"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."
"The solution's setup could be quicker and easier."
"Improvements need to be made on the load balancing side."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of running Teradata is quite high, but you get a good return on investment."
"Teradata is expensive but gives value for money, especially if you don't want to move your data to the cloud."
"I am using the free version of Teradata."
"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."
"​When looking into implementing this product, pricing is the main issue followed by technical expertise​."
"In this day and age, we want to get things done quickly. So, we go to the AWS Marketplace."
"Make sure you have the in-house skills to design and support the solution, as relying on external sources is extremely costly and tends to lock you into specific platforms, tools, and paradigms."
"It is still a very expensive solution. While I very much like the pure technological supremacy of the software itself, I believe Teradata as a company needs to become more affordable. They are already losing the market to more flexible or cheaper competitors."
"The solution might be considered a bit expensive because it competes with open-source products."
