  Teradata is simply the worst RDBMS I have used. I have 16 years designing and building database systems, and this one sucks.

• Good or bad depends on you!!

  The previous comment states that Teradata is the worst but does not provide any arguments. This is just weak. I can accept that somebody prefers another vendor, but at least state why you think it is bad if you have your opinion ready. Also give information on what system you used and what you experienced. I only have good experience with Teradata. but I think it also depends on what platform you are running, old systems(like 5 years old) will have bad performance and limitations as computers will get faster and faster and requirements or expectations are increased as well. There just comes a time to replace old systems, this is true for every vendor.
  So it can either suck of Rock. It all depends on what the company does with it. If you have no commitment than every project will fail eventually. But it is the fastest database for analytics out there and also is the only database that is really scalable. If properly implemented the benefits can be hugh as analytics previously though impossible become possible and this can save lots of money. Teradata is hugh in the telecomunications industry. This business is one of the most competitive industries out there and the majority of vendors appear to be using Teradata as their (main) analytics environment. Figure out why that is!

  35 years in IT, 15 developing database systems. Teradata is simply the poorest excuse for an RDBMS I have ever seen. If you want to spend a lot of money, then go with the best - Oracle, or save some money and go with SQL Server.
