"The subset of SQL that my client is using is completely supported."
"CockroachDB is highly reliable."
"I use CockroachDB to test big data samples and to create the best structure for databases. We have four users and required 10 people for deployment and maintenance."
"The initial setup and deployment are simple."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its resiliency features and the geo-partitioning capabilities."
"The availability and the easy to use feature is the most valuable. The documentation is also good."
"The tool's most valuable feature is node syncing, which takes only 0.54 milliseconds."
"The solution is stable."
"The feature I found most valuable in SAP HANA is modeling. I also like that the solution has good integration and you can integrate it with any system, even third-party systems."
"The performance in terms of processing time is unmatched due to the in-memory processing capability."
"Some functions have good performance."
"The solution offers advanced features that the company was struggling to implement."
"The best feature of SAP HANA is column computing. The computing speed of the solution is also very high, so developers can easily develop programs through SAP HANA."
"It is very stable and very innovative. You can integrate many applications with it."
"We have found the solution to be customizable and it is beneficial it comes as a bundled package. Additionally, it is user-friendly."
"Cockroach does not support all types of protocols. I need to improve it myself to support a CouchDB on my network."
"The product must improve its disaster recovery features."
"The initial setup and pricing could be improved."
"The platform could be more extensible."
"I find the serverless offer a bit confusing."
"We are looking for more features to support distributed high availability and geo-partitioning."
"CockroachDB needs to improve store processes."

"I think that the pricing is high and it needs improvement."
"The performance and integration with other products are areas in need of improvement."
"The initial setup of SAP HANA is complex. We did the implementation of one site, and a global deployment will take another three to four years."
"What needs improvement in SAP HANA is its automation, in particular, it needs more enhancements in that area."
"I'd just like to see some more improvements done on the training, both on the functional training and technical training sides as a part of the complete solution."
"Per SAP, you can do both transactional and analytical processes in SAP HANA. Though that's true, the speed is slower when you combine the two functions, so this is what I'd like SAP to improve in SAP HANA. In the next release, I want to see better diagrams in SAP HANA and a more user-friendly interface."
"If the developers were to enhance or improve the application logic while processing the transactions, that would be great."
"SAP HANA is not strong like Oracle when it comes to finance. They are only strong with the logistic business project."
