Lack of functionality when compared to Postgres, SQL Server etc. No pivoting etc.

It's a good cheap way to start.
If you have a lot of data (or the potential to get more) you may want something more robust
Also No window functions so if you need extra analysis capabilities look somewhere else.

Powerful Database Management Solution

  • January 25, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is an open source solution that offers powerful features as a Relational Database Management System, including monitoring tools, backup and recovery, high availability and easy migration from other databases.
What do you dislike about the product?
While the MySQL environment is fairly user friendly, there remains much to be desired within their navigation systems and user help guides within the environment. Committing changes and updates require entire page refresh which can sometimes take quite long and can be quite tedious at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using MySQL for Customer Relationship Management systems and to support the creation of web applications by tertiary level students.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MySQL is a suitable application for small to mid sized database solutions, it is quite easy to set up and the interface is pretty user friendly. You won't need any SQL expert to setup and administer this system.

Compromise on the Security, but I haven't faced any problems so far.
