MySql is the easiest way to get started in the database administration

  • November 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One of the many things that I liked most about knowing this technology was the fact that it is open source and, even more, knowing that it is developed by Oracle, which makes it more attractive. I use MySQL very often to integrate it with my web applications and there are many interfaces that allow its integration. Another of its features is that it can be used on both Windows and Linux platforms making it much more versatile compared to Microsoft SqlServer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, mysql is more oriented for simple web applications. Its processing capacity is not designed for mass concurrences which makes it disposable for systems of large companies and its documentation is somewhat limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the implementation of mysql to the web systems of the company, human resources problems have been solved, such as the payment of payroll, generation of reports, interoperability among other companies, to name a few.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I strongly recommend mysql for the development of web applications. It is easy to use and many interfaces allow its integration.

You can do everything you want. It's the mother of the database! Maybe the grandmother! In php is very easy to access and you can find every solution on the internet.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes you need to implement everything by hand and you are limited to not use trees.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Database for apps and web systems
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Depending on you database size, if it is small or medium, it's really a good ideia.. if it's big, but simple, also a great idea.

MySql is the most reliable Database around.

  • November 16, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySql provides ease of use, scalability, and robustness. We have used MySql in different Web Applications with mobile apps connected to it through API. We have found it very reliable and robust to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySql lacks speed when it comes to executing multi-level nested queries.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is an open-source product. Therefore, it significantly helps to reduce the cost of the product. In turn, it assists medium and small businesses in affording software solutions developed with MySQL.

Great value

  • November 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the most the fact that it's free, versatile and multi-platform. Along with some sync tools (SJA for example) ,we manage MySQL in multiple locations with synchronisation of records and stock management across various servers and company offices.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could do better with database integrity assurance as well as more security features. Also deployment automation would be a plus, although there are some tools available from third-parties.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Small footprint, great value for deploying in microservices and multiple platform - a must for our business. We're running point-of-sale systems in various locations as well as synchronising stock records across locations to provide near-real-time availability for our e-commerce websites.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need a fast, versatile, multi-platform relational database system, MySQL has been for many years the choice for starters as well as advanced users. I also recommend using SJA for synchronisation and replication jobs.

Low cost reliable and lightweight database in the market

  • November 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
the admin part of mysql is easy to manage.It is a developer friendly structural database. Robust drivers are available for connecting to mysql database
What do you dislike about the product?
the support for stored procedure, functions are not that great. the syntax is different when compared to oracle.
there is no concept of Roles in mysql and hence granting privileges is in admin level or object/request based.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use community version of Mysql as a relational database in my web application. backing up of data is very easy in mysql
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If using enterprise version, can make use of additional plugins, query caching and SSL support which is available.
Make sure to use the tools like generating ER diagrams, backing up data etc.

Review for MySQL

  • November 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is really easy to use and one of the best open source Relational Database Management system. It prompts the command names allowing us to write queries efficiently. it is usually very fast at executing queries. Integration with your database and software is very simple too. It is a very fast tool for small usual tasks and very secure since we ourselves grant all the permissions we want.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes a query with too many joins run on a large database does affect the stability of the tool. It gets hanged at times and does not quit executing the query. It also doesn't provide any special features for debugging of stored procedures. Memory usage could be really high.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I have to fix a problem for which I need to look into the database level, I use MySQL to understand the relations between various columns involved in the problem. It helps me plan my solution. Further it also assists me to provide the fix for the problem and test the fix too.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A very handy user friendly tool to access databases efficiently. Definitely recommended to everyone handling databases in their work. MySQL helps you while coding by prompting the key command names.
