"MS SQL Parallel Data"
What do you like best about SQL Server 2019?

The parallel data warehouse is a massive storage appliance with exceptional speed.

The platform is all Microsoft and integrates well with all other Microsoft products and infrastructure.

Microsoft's support of the product has been outstanding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SQL Server 2019?

Report Builder allows for quite a bit of customization but we found it be missing some the features that make other application like Crystal Reports so easy to use. Simple features such as moving columns within a table can be a bit frustrating. Formatting text and writing formulas (expressions) is easier in Crystal Reports.
