IBM Cloud Pak for Data enabled our organization to shrink the time it took to validate a product idea from months to days by removing the bottleneck within our analytics team to meet the surging demand for big data analysis across the company. We use it to audit our various data sources, allowing us to identify where we have data quality issues and gaps so we can quickly address them so as not to impact the user experience.
  • Accelerated ad hoc data exploration and analysis.
  • Seamlessly connects data by consolidating the disparate sources.
  • Supports AI-driven insights.
  • The range of features and tools may require a learning curve.
It is a great tool to enable teams from Engineering, Product Management, and QA to perform complex data analysis on their own. It is capable of integrating data from disparate data sources while being fast enough to support interactive analysis at a terabyte scale. The platform is very helpful for machine learning and data science use cases.

We advise many of our clients on the best ways to process ETL and Analytics, quickly, and efficiently. CP4D has been around for many years and we have implemented this for many organizations. It solves most bottlenecks clients have for processing in a very cost effective and reliable environment. Clients can also process jobs within seconds where it would previously take days. This offers a platform to organizations allowing them to change their business models. For example, a large financial institution in Canada would normally score their customers in 45 hours. With CP4D with Netezza, the same scoring job completes in 15 seconds. Now customers can be scored daily. This same story can be seen at hundreds of other clients we support. There is nothing else like it on the market at such a competitive price on premise or in the cloud.
  • the fastest execution of queries
  • business critical support and redundancy in design for almost 100% uptime
  • ties in with many other IBM offerings such as Watson
  • support at IBM is unbeatable with experts available before and after the sale to assist clients
  • This offering is currently available on prem, in Azure, and soon in AWS. GCP availability will be in the future as there is demand in the marketplace
  • The on premise offering starts with a Base + 0 model, which is a significant appliance. There are no 'mini' offerings as there were in the past.
  • At Destiny, we work closely with IBM to help our clients perform budgetary planning.
IBM Cloud Pak for Data with Netezza is well suited for clients who require fast, economical analytics processing. It is not designed to be used as a transactional processing environment. For example, a large customer is using it during the point of sale process. That makes little sense in that business case. However, to take analysis to market faster, it excels well in that space.

This cloud-based tool is excellent for visualizing and managing all data across networks, also fulfilling fuzzy data storage, making it less complex and completely improving productivity in the organization; so everything will be managed in multiple environments without any problem. That's why since IBM Cloud Pak for Data has been implemented everything is better organized and managed across all departments with no hassle.
  • Artificial intelligence that solves everything automatically.
  • We can store in many clouds all the desired data.
  • we are much more productive.
  • Excellent customer service system, willing to help always.
  • There is no problem with this software, it offers us many services that have helped us to grow as a business and therefore economically we would implement it again.
It is a good option to grow your business, the implementation is very easy, you do not need to be an expert to use it and it has an excellent data integration service in different clouds simultaneously; it will also save you money through automation. Everything will be faster without errors to regret. Data privacy is also another feature that makes IBM the best of data analytics software.

I really like the first-rate service for integrating data across multiple cloud simultaneously with automation in hand. Because of its adaptability and scalability this cloud-based solution for displaying and managing all data across network and data storage is excellent. This enables us to spend less time finding data and more using it effectively.
  • Data storage is excellent.
  • Automation of our business processes is top-notch.
  • Ideal for displaying and managing all data across networks.
  • Military-grade security features for all our data.
  • Cost is inevitable.

IBM Cloud Pak for Data has been around my organization for years now and it's been very exceptional offering top-notch services. I like how we've benefited through the automation and embedded AI, it helps data to be easily identified and thus boost our business data-driven decisions. IBM running on Kubernetes allows us to bring any kind of process or tool into the cluster with some work.
The IBM support is really unrelieved, proactive and very user-friendly.
  • I really like the AI and ML which enables us to source data in different sources for easy data-driven decisions.
  • It's a cloud tool that keeps all our data safe, backed up ahs obtainable at any time without being exposed to any kind of risks or loss.
  • I like the fact that ICP is main based on open source stack which adds value to products like VA or MCM.
  • IBM support service is great and top-class.
  • Still the UI design looks outdated and not user friendly at all.
  • Documentation should be more comprehensive to allow easy and seamless installation and configuration as well.
I like how easy is with data analytics for IBM Cloud to build in CI/CD and Jenkins pipeline. It runs on privately hosted cloud which is a good solution for IBM Servers hence has better performance compared to on-premise installation running on Oracle. The support is great and supportive always.

My primary use case with IBM cloud Pak for data is to organize all our data in a central repository which makes it very easy to analyze them later. One of the best things with IBM cloud Pak is that it connects various siloed data across cloud landscapes and makes it very easy for us to work on those data. Additionally, the overall computational errors have been reduced, and containerization has become very crucial.
  • The AI services catalog like the Watson Assistant is very good.
  • The analytics dashboard featuring all the recent history is very good with IBM.
  • Searching for data through the unified search option is super cool.
  • More documents are needed on containerization.
  • The integrations through containerizations can be improved.
  • The cost of the product is on the higher side.
IBM Cloud Pak for data is one of the best ways through which a business can infuse Artificial Intelligence across their organization. One of the things that IBM cloud does well is the data privacy and security that it offers. Since most of our data is sensitive, IBM's privacy framework helps us secure it. Additionally, scaling data-related processes and queries is super easy with its end-to-end AI lifecycle.

We have deployed IBM Cloud Pak for Data in my organization to manage and govern data across diffuse data clouds and stores. In our department, we use it to process router data without transferring it to a central store house. We use it to integrate data across our multi-cloud environments. It helps us integrate AI in network environments specifically for network switches enabling end to end AI workflows for easy model deployments.
  • Integrates AI help reduce the complexity in data consolidation
  • Manages data well across multiple environments
  • Reduces ETL requests by great margins
  • It is complex; The platform comes with several features from MLOPs to Customer 360 which may take a long time for the user to understand.
IBM Cloud Pak for Data has played a huge role in automating our end to end AI lifecycles in the network dimension. It gives us an extensive view of data across diverse data sources for the routers and switches at any moment without needing to migrate to a central repository. The platform has at large made our data management across multiple clouds much easier.
