PostgreSQL database review

  • November 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
PostgreSQL is an open source database and in that way has a great advantage over other licensed databases like Oracle. Currently, we have been trying to migrate all legacy applications from Oracle to postGRESQL.PostgreSQL database works very well with hibernate JPA and we have been using it extensive along with the Spring framework.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no good client to use the database been using pg admin and I am not really a big fan of the interface provided by pgadmin, we cannot "pin" any query results unlike the SQL developer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Have been using postgreSQL for couple of applications on the financial domain. Works great with simple applications with relatively less complex database design. Have hosted postGRESQL on AWS and used cross region replication, encryption.

PostgreSQL - the heart of our GIS

  • November 29, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
PostgreSQL with PostGIS and pgRouting offers us a flexible, robust and reliable open source database platform on which to build the rest of our GIS infrastructure. The open source license gives us the freedom to install and use it as we like.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I had my way I would switch out all our other RDBMS for PostgreSQL.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PostgreSQL replaced Oracle at the heart of our GIS infrastructure. We have saved money on software licenses, reskilled a number of people in database administration and reduced the number of files stored in directories to almost zero by putting the data in the database. The database is becoming the single source of truth for all spatial data in the organisation. The flexibility offered by the database has improved the efficiency of a number of different data creation and maintenance workflows and as a result we have grown the number of users from 10 to 75.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
PostgreSQL offers a solid database platform on which to build applications for organisations not willing to pay large annual maintenance fees. It scales well from small single use applications to large clustered enterprise-wide systems. The open source license lets you install as many instances as you need for free. The open source, standards compliant database allows you complete flexibility in designing the database and any applications it underpins. PostGIS and pgRouting are database extensions that add greatly to the capabilities of the product and are core to our GIS infrastructure. Documentation for the product is second to none and the user community is excellent. If you so wish, support contracts are available from a number of suppliers in the UK and internationally. PostgreSQL is also available from many cloud service suppliers and runs on all major operating systems.
