Overall Satisfied with MySQL

  • May 05, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Help and Support,
Easy to Setup,
Scaleable,
Works well with the following - Apache/Tomcat - Oracle WebLogic - JAVA, PHP, JSP, Perl.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the bells and whistles of the larger DB solutions are missing. Examples of this include some types of table encryption, solutions like data vaulting, and utilisation of an entire disk for MySQL (not like some DBs that can do file/disk management instead of the OS e.g Oracles ASM). You will also find some types of index and certain forms of partitioning are missing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Backups/Restore - Personally I am not a great fan of the backup/restore features built in to MySQL. I have found they can take a long long time to import/export a table with many many millions of rows of data.

    Building Materials

Good but needs a few things

  • April 28, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is great from a developmental prospective but I really think people can benefit if they have GUIs and other tools so more people can use it but other than that it works. Its harder to find vulnerabilities in the new versions!
What do you dislike about the product?
No GUI and it is harder for someone who knows little to use iot

I am managing my blog users and keeping rows of valuable assets ion mysql


    Internet

Reliable MySQL

  • April 28, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As an open source database, the support community online is not only alive and well, but very strong and helpful. There is a very large number of support documentation as well as various management and development tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the extra features of the larger database solutions are missing in MySQL, such as data vaulting, some index types and partitioning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used MySQL as the default database system in all out user management solutions. Because it is feature rich, fast and easy to setup and quick to use, it is ideal for rapid development.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MySQL is under a GPL licence and as such this has huge cost savings compared to other solutions.
MySQL was well suited for developing in Lean/Agile software development environments as changes can be made quickly without being over complicated to implement. Its solid and reliable - overall I would highly recommend it.

    Mining & Metals

Easy to use, intuitive for problem solving with large data sets in a manufacturing environment

  • April 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL offered many options critical for database management, backup, replication, and customer service is top notch compared to other companies I've worked with.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really can't find anything I dislike about the many products I use from this company. It is open source so it's highly compatible and easy to integrate. Security features aren't as solid as Oracle, but it has built in authentication. Also, timestamps are a little finicky.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This product is not only a DBA's dream come true, but it has stood the test of time for storing large amounts of data and handling memory use issues. Great for data analytics as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For the pricing and customer support, it's worth it for all server and database needs.


    Computer Software

Free, Portable, Easy to Use database server

  • April 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
first of all, it's FREE! Second of all, it's not a big installation which consumes a lot of your disk space, the service is up and running right after installation, best choice if you need a portable database server to bring with you anywhere you go
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a little bit tricky sometimes when you try to troubleshoot a SQL error message since it won't say too much detail, just tell you around where there is a syntax error, check the manual. If it can be more accurate to say exactly where it's wrong, it will be better
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MySQL as our training databases when we do our product trainings to the customers. With full function database server, we have it installed on every trainer's laptop, so even they go onsite, they don't have to login to the VPN to the office database, everything on their local machine, fast and easy
