Likelihood to Recommend The software is excellent for any application which is too large for Excel. The visual interface surpasses that of most SQL platforms. It is quite useful for data mining in an exploratory way but less useful in statistical and regression analysis.

If you are driving a Ferrari, you wouldn’t put a Mercedes engine in it. If you are writing a query, you cannot rely on other brands. Since I'm an architect, when I look for a product, I look for performance. The installation is easy because it comes out-of-the-box and you just start using it. Previous to Oracle Exadata, we were using a normal Oracle RAC service. We were just waiting for this product to come out. I'm currently writing a data warehouse on Exadata. Before this solution, we were aiming for this to be completed by 8 a.m., when our ETLs would finish. With the help of Exadata's special features, this was reduced to 3 a.m. This solution allows us to bring more data within the same time period. It provides us with more subject areas that provide more reports to our users. Our ETL times reduced to 65%, then to 50%.

Read full review Cons The ten.do interface could use more detailed documentation Read full review Patching can often become quite involved and convoluted. It should be more transparent and straightforward. Storage metrics can be difficult and time consuming to obtain. Basic administrative functions can be hard to repair when discovered. Vendor support can take a while to obtain. Generally several attempts are necessary to reach the right area of vendor expertise. Read full review Usability That's votes by our team.

Read full review Oracle Exadata Database Machine had the best performance overall hands down. It clearly beat the competition and we were seeing 1000X improvement on
SAP HANA . Oracle Exadata Database Machine beat that without us refactoring our code. To achieve that in HANA, we had to refactor the code somewhat. Now this was for our limited POC of 5 use cases. Given the large number of stored procedures we had in Sybase, we need to capture more production metrics but we are seeing incredible performance.

With Exadata, we need less technical manpower and less technical support. A business transaction with the integrated and centralized database helps us focus on other business needs. We don't need to buy additional licenses and Hardware for the next 3 to 5 years. Habeeb Akbar Sr. Product Manager/Consultant for Software Technologies and Infrastructure
