"The solution is very stable."
"One feature I find very valuable, is the response time of the application on the database memory."

"The solution is easy to scale."
"We like that the product is both vertically and horizontally scalable, allowing us to do around 86 percent compression of documentation from 50 to seven terabytes."
"Anyone currently using SAP will be transitioning to HANA."

"The procedure for operations could be simplified."
"It would be useful if Cloudera had more tools like SQL Engines that offer the traditional relational database. We have to do a lot of work preparing the data outside Cloudera before getting it into the platform."
"The initial setup of Cloudera is difficult."
"The openness of the system could be more developed. The solution should go into the cloud. The cloud mechanism should be more invested."
"The solution is very expensive for us."
"The solution could improve by having better migration flexibility. For example, it would be helpful if there was a way for customers could check their nonproduction and production deployments."
