  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Faster access to data is the biggest issue we are solving. Also, has a robust Disaster Recovery Strategy built in.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can have issues when a change is made to inter-connected buckets and the system fails to recognize it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Accessing the data faster is what we are solving with Ciuchbase. Being schema less, it effectively eliminatedoverhead for deploying this to any lower environment and production servers. This gives us the most important resource....time back in our day for other things!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just because this was a great fit for us does not mean it will solve your particular problems, so do your homework and find what does - just give Couchbase a try 1st!

Great NoSQL Server, flexible and easy to manage

  • November 02, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The NoSQL Couchbase Database server , is highly flexible in the usage and configuration. You can easily go from a community server to a licensed one. Great customer service, their support and assessment have been highly valuable.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be great to have more certifications on their side, so we can have more developers that we can be sure that have more knowledge of the platform. Right now, is more hit-or-miss with developers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used it for our internal developments, for Product Catalog developments, and some time-series database solutions. The benefits are the flexibility and support for the platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider Couchbase when you need a document-based noSQL Server. It is recommended highly above MongoDB, because of support, ease of use, and great flexibility and tools. Finding developers that know about the platform could be a little difficult, but it is very easy to learn.

Nothing specific I dislike about couchbase. Perhaps more documentation could be available and interactive training user interfaces might make it easier to start using the tools much quicker versus having no experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Flexibility with other options for database platform. Benefits allow ease of integration with other third party tools and resources.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Need to scale and minimize data storage infrastructure?

  • November 02, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Couchbase provides a really great toolset to support data/search/caching and an ability to scale. Typically you need multiple infrastructure components to support such capability, with Couchbase it’s all in one.
What do you dislike about the product?
Coming up to speed and sizing, and learning to monitor your environment requires training and working closely with Couchbase support. It is imperative to understand operation of Couchbase to be successful. I don’t specifically dislike that, but it is an important aspect of implementation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the most recent implementation, the Couchbase cluster supports global metadata and orders from 3rd parties. Additionally FTS provides fast searches to enable good user experience.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Optimized database calls back to on-prem utilizing cloud hybrid model. Also the Caching and Session Management dramatically reduce our common database calls.
What do you dislike about the product?
Inconsistent memory, CPU consumption pattern which took some time optimize resulting in outages during large calls. However, we were able to resolve these issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During peak usage time calls to databases caused latency and redundant calls needed to be eliminated. Couchbase in memory Caching and Session management was the optimal solution.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Couchbase Server delivers on the promise of rapid microservice development in the cloud

  • September 08, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Couchbase Server makes continuous delivery of microservices in the cloud very easy with its schemaless approach to JSON data. For most cases, it's as simple as just deploying a new microservice version, no DDL changes required at all prior to deployment. We're also very excited about the forthcoming scopes/collections feature and how that may help us more easily ensure data separation between microservices.

Couchbase's memory-first architecture flat cluster topology also deliver on performance, especially for transactional data with significant mutation rates.

The N1QL query language is great to work with because it's so SQL-like, and much easier for developers to learn and reason about than other NoSQL platforms while also being more feature-rich.

On the IT operations side, managing the cluster itself is made incredibly easy using Couchbase Cloud or the Autonomous Operator for Kubernetes. The architecture itself also makes things easier, with auto sharding and no need to configure read-replicas.
What do you dislike about the product?
The full-text search system is great for small-scale operations, but is still a somewhat young product offering. In some cases, use of a separate system like Elasticsearch is warranted.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Couchbase has allowed us to operate at scale with low-to-zero downtime for maintenance in a continuous delivery microservices architecture.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When implementing a Couchbase Server proof-of-concept, the learning curve can be slightly steep compared to more traditional RDBMS systems. However, the curve is typically less steep with Couchbase than with other NoSQL platforms. There is a great community online on their forums and Gitter that can help with any questions during a proof-of-concept phase.
