Pros

Already in the Big Data market for years. Is integrating Aster Data and Hadoop in the Teradata Unified Data Architecture. Acquired Aprimo (Marketing Management) and eCircle (Marketing Automization) companies. Very well positioned on the market.

Cons

Very long sales cycles, but that is typical for this industry sector. Sometimes cost reduction pressure more than needed.
