The go to Spatial Database

  • June 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Excellent performance on handling and manipulating Spatial Data. Free and Open Source.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lackluster and inconsistent front end management studios.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing, handling and serving spatial data on my GIS & WebGIS applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you wish to hanlde spatial data in any way PostgreSQL is the way to go. Works well with everything, it is really easy to develop and maintain and has a ton of tools setup around performance (e.g. PgBouncer). The PostGIS spatial extension is the best perfomance-wise (e.g. GIST Indexing) and most complete toolkit in the market (especially true for 2D data). It doesn't have a great Management Studio but PgAdmin has come a long way and the extremely dilligent documentation makes up for that. It is free, it has a growing active community, it's the fastest growing Relational Database and the best one as of date for spatial data. PostgreSQL is the way to go.

Scalable, stable, reliable database app, easy to use. It provides a strong platform to work with databases for different applications, including the LMS (learning management systems). PostgreSQL provides stability and performance for large projects also.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canvas LMS, Websites, Financial apps
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a stable database for different application projects.

  • May 02, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I loved the Common table Extensions (CTE). This is one of the excellent feature you see in PostgreSQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really don't see anything dislike. Moreover i am loving its features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I would say Database Transaction Protection....

Multiple changes either all take place, or none of them. This is amazing...
Data always in a consistent state across the platform
In-process changes invisible to outside users
Data reliably stored

Awesome Tool!

  • April 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best things I like about PostgreSQL is all the functions and tools it provides to perform fast querying and calculations. Also I actually love how it integrates with other tools such as Postgis, that we used it to draw polygons and check if certain coordinates where inside these or not. It worked incredibly fast. Finally I love psql, is my goto tool, really fast to open a new connection to a database and perform queries right away over this one. I also love that the tool is open source, I'm a big supporter of that
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike much about it, just that sometimes the querying is kind of slow when you are trying to get loads of data out of the db.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are storing large amount of data in our db's to later perform analytics with it. The main benefits we've realize while using it is the large amount of functions and transformation we can perform while querying. It actually makes our life easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a tool that has a huge community around it that it is always there to help through the different communication channels you have. Moreover it is really easy to set it up and also not difficult to learn. So developers will be able to reach a high level of understanding in little to no time.

Great open source database

  • April 22, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Extremely reliable, allows large amounts of data to be stored and accessed. Also very good documentation, great AWS RDS support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance management tools are lacking. The database engine is quite opaque when performance issues occur. It is quite hard to diagnose issues like 100% CPU or why some SQL plan is selected rather than some seemingly faster ones.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Relational database storing our company's metadata.

Best in class

  • April 20, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Everything about postgres is quite lovely. We use it for our startup and its quite cool. We switched from MySQL to postgres. One thing that I most love in postgres is that it is schema based, which makes it cool for our needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much I dislike about postgres, Its quite cool. Maybe one thing i would suggest (Not I dislike). Maybe we can have some GUI based tool for querying for non-tech guys to query too. Other than the pgAdmin tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it as the primary database for our web-app.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you really want some Database that is less complex and easy to use, then I would suggest to go with Postgres. And the community is also quite growing super fast.
