MySQL review
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use, and I prefer the MySQL language.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike. It's somewhat limited in it's capabilities, but that's not why you're using this. But not even very limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data queries from large data sets
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It depends on your needs and language preference. Do your research, but don't hesitate if this comes out on top.
Great RDBS platform, but really stagnated once Oracle bought it
What do you like best about the product?
Still easy enough to use after all these years.
What do you dislike about the product?
After Oracle acquired them, progress and feature growth died. MariaDB seemed to pick up where that acquisition left off
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL is naturally the backend for a few WordPress sites we have (though we almost went with MariaDB out of spite against Oracle ; )
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you just need a regular WordPress or Drupal or conventional website with lower traffic, MySQL is still a viable option. But if you need to scale and provide high availability, then you need to look into MariaDB or even AWS Aurora. I'd also recommend using AWS RDS and creating clusters.

The user interface is plane and unattractive.

MySQL provides great solutions for a variety of applications
What do you like best about the product?
MySQL allows us to mine through a large amount of data extremely quickly and can be learned by anyone with previous computer experience
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like the user interface to allow for better learning of writing SQL queries. It is difficult to teach new employees how to write queries without simply giving them the queries we frequently use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We store millions of samples, each with information associated with those samples. This allows us to search for groups of samples and identify where in our storage space those samples are located so that we can do further analysis on our desired samples.
Good SQL database tool

Product isn't natively scalable and requires the need of add-ons to get the full use out of the product.

Robust implementation of true SQL
What do you like best about the product?
A robust SQL engine (which has gone from open source to Oracle ownership). Ideally suited for read vs transactional but moving in that direction. Ability to cluster, replicate and a whole host of tunability and monitoring Available on Windows.
What do you dislike about the product?
Documentation could be better in both organization and examples.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL is the backend to our websites (Wordpress) and has handle multiple db projects where interaction with the internet was necessary.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Solid product backed up by its ownership by Oracle.
