Blazingly Fast and You Can't Beat the Price

  • January 17, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
For starters, since MySQL is open source, the price just can't be beat. On top of that, it's relatively easy to set up and the speed is incredible. It can be managed from a wide variety of tools and there is a huge amount of shared knowledge out there about it (books, articles, websites, forums, etc.). Lastly, it offers a wide range of possibilities for configurations, table types, and text encodings - very customizable all the way around.
What do you dislike about the product?
The setup is *relatively* easy, but for a database novice, or even a newcomer to the command line, it can be intimidating, since MySQL is so incredibly customizable and flexible. Thankfully most Linux distributions have a graphical way to install it these days.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL powers our website and intranet. The frontend is WordPress, but we do a ton of custom database stuff in the backend, especially syncing data from other sources into MySQL for use in our intranet (for example, student data pulled from a CSV and brought into MySQL for custom reporting jobs).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need MySQL, you need MySQL. Go for it. It's not as intimidating as it seems. Grab a book on MySQL or hit StackOverflow. You'll have it in no time!

Mysql Overview

  • January 16, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's very easy to learn the commands and especially when it comes to write the commands of mysql using other languages like PHP or c++, it is easy to do so. The most important feature of mysql that I llike is its rollback feature. And we can join the tables in any way we want using different joints is also good
What do you dislike about the product?
When we create tables and try to split the tables into two or more tables, is somewhat difficult in mysql. Installing the php-mysql drivers is the most annoying thing I've faced in mysql. The installation instructions are not available at one website. So in case of windows it is very troublesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I did a database project- Event management portal using mysql and did many assignments in my bachelor's.

MySQL Free Database

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My SQL is a great backend database to use for websites, it has a great search time even for multiple queries.
What do you dislike about the product?
My SQL can take a bit of configuring to get working on some platforms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My SQL provides a backend to our wordpress websites, holds all site data and ecommerce soloution. It provides secure and easy managment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use MySQL with PHPMyAdmin on Linux systems, it will make configuration much easier and take the guess work out.

MySQL has been a great all purpose database tech that is secure, reliable, fast and free.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that from a value perspective, you can't get any better than an industry tried and true database tech. MySQL has grown and so has the various flavors like MariaDB, Percona, Aurora, and perhaps more. The community is great for support, and you can get support plans from numerous providers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike. Usually when I come up with a con, I can switch the deployment strategy and come up with viable work arounds.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cost effective management of data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Recommend implementing in AWS RDS as Aurora
