Data analytics has accelerated decisioning and now delivers faster insights for telecom use cases
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) is mostly data sourcing and analyzing the data in OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) for a telecom client.
For example, whatever telecom data we have stored in the OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) database, we have to analyze as per our use case. For offer decisioning-related use cases, we had to gather some data from OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) regarding customer analytics, usage analytics, or the different plans. We used to analyze that data based on the requirement.
We also use OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) to generate SQL queries, and we analyze the data there.
What is most valuable?
The best features that OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) offers are mainly the parallel processing, ETL capabilities, and the multi-cloud features which are very handy to use.
The parallel processing and ETL capabilities have helped us significantly. GCP cloud is a very useful feature to get the data from Azure or GCP. The ETL capabilities include querying the databases from different systems. Also, parallel processing has helped us generate the data source analysis earlier.
OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) has impacted our organization positively because earlier we used to use Teradata, and it was very slow, creating issues with processing as well. OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) has helped us a lot in terms of processing capabilities and the speed of querying.
What needs improvement?
OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) can be improved by adding some more features in analytics.
OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) does not have a cloud-based UI that Snowflake has, which features a very good comprehensive GUI for querying and analyzing data. This is something OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) can improve. Otherwise, the database is very strong.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) for almost five to six years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) is stable, and there have been no issues till now.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) has very good scalability. Whenever we need to scale the database, the database configuration is easy to modify.
How are customer service and support?
Regarding customer support, I actually never had to contact customer support, so I do not see any issues there.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We previously used a different solution and also used Snowflake database in place. While Snowflake is a better option, we are pretty much familiar with OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica), so we use OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) more than Snowflake.
How was the initial setup?
Before choosing OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica), I did not evaluate other options. We directly started with OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) only.
What about the implementation team?
My company has no business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer of OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica).
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment from using OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica), specifically in terms of time saved. The time we used to take with our earlier databases has reduced to one-tenth of what was there earlier, which is a positive outcome that can be converted to financial metrics in terms of return on investment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is limited because the organization handled the licensing and pricing as well as the cost setup.
What other advice do I have?
My advice for others looking into using OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica) is to proceed with it. We found no issues, and it can definitely help organizations in database analytics. I believe we covered everything regarding OpenText Analytics Database (Vertica). I gave this review a rating of ten.
