The Best Free Little Relational Database

  • September 19, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is like the GMC of databases.It's everywhere, it's easy to work on, and it's easy to find people who know how to use it.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL is still clunky. You need to live in the command line. It doesn't abstract away the operating system enough.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Rarely is MySQL used for any reason other than it's bundled with the product you're already using, like WordPress.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're thinking about MySQL and you don't really know much about relational databases, back up. And if you're looking for a relational database option you should also be considering NoSQL options. If you don't know about that, back up.

Excellent

  • September 14, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MYSQL has made it possible for our Tribe to use and store water quality data and also share it with the EPA, and I've worked with technicians at USET to have it installed and now it's running fine and we are able to manage our data.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can get a little technical, but that's why I had technicians from USET to help me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides the platform we needed to install and manage our WQX database and submit our water quality data to the EPA. It makes it a lot easier to share data than other platforms.

amazing tool for simple PHP applications

What do you dislike about the product?
NoSQL is trending now and graph db is not supported

Great open-source platform for SQL table management across applications.

  • August 24, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to pick up for someone with cursory or no SQL experience. The amount of online learning material makes this a simple investment for anyone looking to utilize databases in their projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting ODBC connectors and other plugins to cooperate with third-party programs when you're trying to pass SQL data between them can be a hassle depending on system infrastructure. Getting appropriate information on this was a bit harder than learning about the product itself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL provided a great framework for our organization to convert large-N datasets from XLS/CSV into a format we could pass on to our colleagues across the nation for statistical analysis in SPSS and other programs. It provided flexibility and ease of access that we weren't able to achieve with less centralized solutions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's not perfect, but it's close enough. You can't go wrong here.

Great database to use as backend for smaller websites

  • August 11, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, fairly easy to learn MySQL scripts. And also the ability to integrate this within websites (e.g. through PHP).
What do you dislike about the product?
For visual access to a database I have always used other tools like PHPmyAdmin tools, I would have like to use native apps on my desktop to access the database. Do not know if these are available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Running a back-end databased for a website, analysing large amounts of data by linking multiple databases.

Just simple "databasing"

  • August 10, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
-Simple
-Cheap
-Goes to the point
-Easy setup
What do you dislike about the product?
well, I don't think you should use MySQL for big databases.
The performance can be very poor.
Anyway, with proper tunning, you can get it working.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly to support web applications with a database

MySQL is the free DB that you should use!

  • August 08, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is a SQL based relational database that's now owned by Oracle (eww). It's still free (community edition), supports all of the fancy things SQL Server supports as well as clustering!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish MySQL would support replication across availability zones in AWS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Persistence of user information for cloud enterprise software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
1) Make sure that your uses are fulfilled by a relational database and not a key/value store.

User-friendly SQL tool

  • August 04, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to lay down your projects visually with MySQL workbench a nice GUI makes working with MySQL a breeze. Its speed and stability are great too!
What do you dislike about the product?
Though I don't dislike anything about MySQL, I must admit the learning curve was a bit steep at the beginning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to integrate a full-featured SQL engine in a number of data mining applications. MySQL provides a fairly intuitive way to organize large datasets to be called later on in machine learning applications.
