Pros
pre IbM Acquisiton - a fantastic solution for DW and a great bunch of people to deal with. Highly innovative roadmap for DW.
Kontras
Post IBM acquisition - flakey promises on innovation, most employees of Netezza were either quick to exit (within 12 months of acquisiton) or paid to stay, either way, it was a traumatic expericence, leading to the destruction of a fantastic business and customer partnership. - IBM doesnt work - and they dont care about customers. 'Empty suits' as a long term cusomer descibes them is absolutley the best desciption. Beware of future technology promises and any suggestion that NETEZZA remains. Total dismatlement of US and EMEA Netezza Organisation is either partially or completely achieved. Sad but totally true.
