Shardul Borhade
Centralized management has reduced database overhead but pricing and documentation have needed work
Reviewed on Jul 17, 2026
Review provided by PeerSpot
What is our primary use case?
The main use case for EDB Postgres Advanced Server (EPAS) is within my work at DBtune, an AI-driven SaaS product for database optimization. I am responsible for developing and testing our platform's integration with various database environments, including Azure , AWS , and EDB's EPAS and CNPG solutions, ensuring our SaaS can seamlessly connect and optimize them.
What is most valuable?
What I appreciate about EDB Postgres Advanced Server is that it offers management tools such as PEM and CNPG under one umbrella, providing enterprise features that eliminate the need for multiple engineers to maintain PostgreSQL databases, although it is somewhat expensive.
I evaluate the technical support and customer service of EDB Postgres Advanced Server as really good, as I have sought their help three to four times regarding issues with PEM configuration, and they respond quickly and solve issues promptly. I would rate the technical support of EDB Postgres Advanced Server an 8 out of 10.
EDB Postgres Advanced Server's high availability and disaster recovery features, specifically the introduction of CNPG based on Kubernetes , are good, but they require significant infrastructure overhead, which I believe necessitates a lightweight integration model for better performance.
I rate the efficiency improvements from EDB Postgres Advanced Server a 10 out of 10 when it comes to Oracle compatibility. Its native support for Oracle's PL/SQL syntax makes evaluating and migrating legacy workloads incredibly smooth, bypassing the typical headaches of manual code rewrites.
What needs improvement?
Beyond the aspects that I mentioned about the enterprise manager PEM and UI complexities, I would like to see improvements in the pricing structure to accommodate startups and clearer centralized documentation for those less familiar with EDB Postgres Advanced Server.
For how long have I used the solution?
Overall, I have used EDB Postgres Advanced Server for around one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
When assessing the stability performance of EDB Postgres Advanced Server, I can say it is quite good, with occasional performance issues not attributed to EDB Postgres Advanced Server but rather to application conflicts.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Regarding scalability, I find that EDB Postgres Advanced Server supports scalability well with features such as multimaster, PGD, and automated systems, allowing for easy adjustments to storage and operations, which I would rate a 9 out of 10.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Prior to adopting EDB Postgres Advanced Server, I used the open-source version of PostgreSQL and have experience with Oracle, which remains the top database in my opinion.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup process for EDB Postgres Advanced Server is quite straightforward for me, but I recognize it may be complex for developers who are new to databases due to less clear documentation from a few years ago.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
We obtained EPAS through our partnership with EDB using an enterprise deployment model on-premises. From a pure testing perspective for a startup like DBtune, the licensing can feel quite expensive. However, for true enterprises, it is well worth the investment because the built-in management tools and excellent support mean you don't need a massive team of engineers just to maintain the architecture.
What other advice do I have?
From a pricing perspective, I do not find it cost-effective from DBtune's SaaS perspective as we are just testing it, but for enterprises, it is worth it as you do not require many engineers for management and receive good support. I do not have experience using EDB Postgres Advanced Server's advanced security features as I have not had the opportunity to utilize them, despite my awareness of their existence.
We did not use the partitioning feature from EDB Postgres Advanced Server, so I do not have experience with that.
We use the enterprise deployment model for EDB Postgres Advanced Server, which we obtained through our partnership with EDB.
My experience with EDB Postgres Advanced Server is quite recent as I have used it in early 2026, along with CloudBeaver, which I recently utilized in 2026 as well.
My overall rating for this review is 7 out of 10.

Explore innovative database indexing and distributed architecture capabilities
Reviewed on Dec 05, 2024
Review provided by PeerSpot
What is our primary use case?
Our primary use case for EDB Postgres Advanced Server was to study the code base behind it. We aimed to understand how it has been built, how the engine functions, the querying process, and what kinds of indices are available. This was part of our college projects where we explored its architecture and capabilities.
What is most valuable?
The number of indices available in Postgres is remarkable. Additionally, the way it forks each process into a child node, instead of executing in the same node, is quite different from most databases. These features can be especially useful in certain scenarios compared to MySQL or other SQL-based databases. Also, the ability to distribute the database across different machines is a significant advantage.
What needs improvement?
It was challenging to think of improvements for Postgres. We did not choose to extend or add new features to Postgres since it already meets our needs so well. There aren't specific new features we wish to add.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have had experience with this product for the past year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Postgres and MySQL are known for their stability and reliability, which is essential for a product server.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Although I do not have detailed insight into MySQL's scalability, I can affirm that Postgres scales effectively and performs exceptionally well among SQL databases.
How are customer service and support?
Postgres has excellent documentation, which is very comprehensive and includes diagrammatic representations and visual aids. This makes learning and understanding the system much easier.
How was the initial setup?
Setting up MySQL is slightly more straightforward than Postgres. I would rate the Postgres setup experience as seven and a half out of ten, compared to MySQL's setup, which I rate at nine out of ten.
What other advice do I have?
I would highly recommend EDB Postgres Advanced Server to others. Most companies prefer Postgres or MySQL for a reason. The number of available options and the ability to distribute the database across different machines enhances its flexibility and features.
I rate Postgres a nine out of ten overall.

Enhancing database learning with AI features and Oracle compatibility but needs performance improvements
Reviewed on Oct 15, 2024
Review from a verified AWS customer
What is our primary use case?
I am a lecturer, and in universities, we use EDB Postgres Advanced Server to start with databases for practical purposes. I also assist with migrations, especially when clients want to migrate from Oracle to Postgres. So, while I am not a regular user, I am involved during migrations.
How has it helped my organization?
Since the initial cost of licensing is lower compared to Oracle, this is a benefit for our clients, particularly in the healthcare sector where I work with systems like the Visuraj Dashboard and appointment booking infrastructure. Maintenance is easier without needing third parties, thanks to EDB support.
What is most valuable?
The feature of vector database management for AI is quite interesting and impactful. Clients often compare it with other databases, such as ChromaDB. Additionally, the compatibility with Oracle is beneficial for middle—and lower-tier customers. EDB offers extensive support, low initial licensing costs, and comprehensive packages.
What needs improvement?
I would like to see improvements in the performance, especially in large-scale operations, as it currently cannot match Oracle's performance. Additionally, multi-tenancy architecture, microservices, and container-based architecture support are needed. Enhancements should be made in AI support and vector database features.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been involved with EDB Postgres Advanced Server in situations related to Oracle and Postgres migrations. It is not a continuous engagement, but I have supported the solution whenever needed.
How are customer service and support?
Their technical support is quite good. Even for installation issues, support is readily available and competent.
How was the initial setup?
Installation is quite straightforward and easy, unlike Oracle. It's simple, just taking five minutes.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
EDB Postgres Advanced Server offers both processor-based and user-based licensing options. The cost is reasonable, particularly for middle and lower-tier customers, but there are hiccups when dealing with large enterprises whose data exceeds one hundred terabytes.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
For high-end, large enterprises, we recommend Oracle as it offers better performance.
What other advice do I have?
I recommend EDB Postgres Advanced Server for middle—and lower-tier businesses. Its ease of installation makes it beneficial from a learning perspective. However, due to performance issues, Oracle remains the best choice for high-end enterprises.
I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

A open-source database with built-in features for scripting
Reviewed on May 06, 2024
Review from a verified AWS customer
What is most valuable?
The product is fast. I have used SQL Server before, and considering that Postgres is open source, its speed is remarkable. It's as fast as a proprietary server like SQL Server or Oracle. Additionally, it has many built-in features that make scripting easy.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It has good stability. I rate it an eight out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is quite scalable. I rate it a nine out of ten.
How are customer service and support?
The documentation is excellent. It covers everything you need to know, including how the features work and how to set everything up. Overall, it's very straightforward.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
The setup is straightforward, similar to a general setup. Someone with experience with other database software like Oracle or SQL Server won't need to learn anything new to set up Postgres. It's really easy to set up. Setting up any database can be challenging for a first-time user, but even someone with minimal experience can do it easily.
I rate it an eight out of ten.
What was our ROI?
It's a cost-saving option if you're cost-conscious and want to avoid using SQL Server or Oracle, both of which I've used in the past three or four years and know can be expensive. It's cost-effective and gets the job done. From my experience, it's as fast as SQL Server, though not quite as fast as Oracle. I would choose this option if I had to choose between this and other providers.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
It is free. You need to invest in the infrastructure to run the server, but it is free to set up anywhere.
What other advice do I have?
Postgres is highly compatible with many software and programming languages. Its compatibility is excellent, covering nearly everything related to data engineering or migration.
They have some particular features that differ from Postgres, so there is an initial learning curve. Some features, like scripting, might vary from other database servers. There could be a slight learning curve for new users. It is the best open-source database server available.
It's good for machine learning or AI. The data processing needs are well-handled, and Postgres is relatively fast at retrieving, inserting, or modifying data. It will be helpful for these purposes.
Overall, I rate it around nine out of ten.
