Netezza to Teradata Migration Services

Companies are finding the hype around Netezza and the promises that they are making just that, hype and promises, but not reality. The truth is customers are moving from Netezza to Teradata and choosing Teradata over Netezza. They are finding that in a head to head data warehouse appliance comparison, Teradata is a better platform and can better meet data warehousing goals. Also when customers find they want to move to toward an integrated enterprise data warehouse environment (EDW), Netezza falls short. Teradata is the best company and platform to lead them down the EDW path as well. Why?
