An easy, reliable, embeddable database engine
What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity and how easy it was to set up.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product is lacking some features that are norm these days for a database engine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An in house application was using this database to store the results persistently.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When you need a database engine/storage which is easy to integrate into the logic of your in-house application, capable of supporting SQL alike queries - PostgreSQL is the way to go.

Nice Clean and Simple SQL tool
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to install and set up. Clean interface and design.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I did dislike about PostGres is setting up the population tables.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business problems we are solving with PostgrSQL is creating custom database for our software implementation.
Using PostgreSQL with business application as backend Database
What do you like best about the product?
it's a very scalable database and also comes at almost the cost of nothing. Also from a security perspective, we think it is quite secure
What do you dislike about the product?
I really do not think there is anything to dislike about a powerful, easy to use, scalable and FREE database
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it as the defacto database for our ERP - Odoo, and it has proved its worth a million times over and over again
Recommendations to others considering the product:
we use it as the database for our open ERP - Odoo
Using Postgresql on Linux
What do you like best about the product?
It is quick to install, and work well, providing a reliable database for server side storage
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning the best way to set up users can take much longer than you would expect. A simple tutorial on this would really help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using it to serve data to mobile and web apps for the building industry
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A good and cheap alternative to oracle
Use as PostgreSQL not as MySQL; get to know it the philosophy behind it first!
What do you like best about the product?
Awesome built in data types, JSON with indexing to then work with triggers and locks!
Best of both NoSQL and SQL. The community is very active, as well as several commercial enterprise offerings.

What do you dislike about the product?
I found there to be a steep initial learning curve to be able to build an application effectively to use all the built-in magic if the development team come from using MySQL or MSSQL. Once the brain wraps around some of the over loaded terminology
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a database or databases that we could effectively have json stored, indexed, but allow for locked tables.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
have your team take the time to read or watch an introduction to postgresql methodology, and well as a comparison against MySQL. The hour/hour and a half of time in the beginning can save hours/days of reworking to use the internal tools to scale properly.
Data Analyst
What do you like best about the product?
Open source, easy to use and high scalability
What do you dislike about the product?
Unstable and alacking of technical support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using postsql to store large amounts of data for Analyst
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommend
Review on Postgres
What do you like best about the product?
PostgreSQL is the SQL DB and been gaining popularity in the recent years. Today, After MySQL acquisition the community and many organisations do not consider MySQL though its popular and one of best. The next best is PostgreSQL also because of its good performance results. PostgreSQL is implements SQL standards very well and it supports advanced SQL stuff. As PostgreSQL is Open source, its been preferred by larger community and even few ECM tools Like Nuxeo ECM recommends best results.
What do you dislike about the product?
PostgreSQL is not very easy to understand or use unlike MySQL, it requires a little learning curve for new folks. The initial installation also requires some background and will take time for first few installations or integrations with other tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
PostgreSQL was considered mainly because it is open source. Also, its been recommended by experts due to its good results on performance front. PostgreSQL has support for all OS versions like windows, linux and others.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Yes
Postgresql Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like the unique features of postgresql and the syntax is pretty simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
May be some features need an update Example: with respect to group by
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I extract data from the data mart to create custom reports for our end clients
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Update with newer features
The opensource standard for SQL databases
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using PostgreSQL for many years, and although there are alternatives, I've found that for most use cases PostgreSQL is the RDBMS to go for.
It's not only because of its simplicity or its features. The main reason is that it is tuned to most workloads and you don't have to fine-tune or play with configuration files a lot: it simply works.
This really feels like the developers put a lot of care when designing the RDBMS engine and when choosing defaults. I still have to find a workload PostgreSQL is not suited for.

What do you dislike about the product?
This is not a complain, as I'm okay with the command line and fine using and configuring it through SSH in my servers, but a lot of colleagues find it difficult to do this. Most of them, accustomed to point-and-click solutions, or more mainstream databases, find it difficult to make the switch.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When there are applications that cannot be handled with standard solutions, I toss the data to a PostgreSQL database and give it a go. It is not the de facto database for my current company, but I use it when required, as SQL Server (the one we use the most) cannot handle some workloads.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't be amused by its complexity or lack of desktop applications for management. It is a really powerful RDBMS engine, and although it can have some rough edges, overall is one of the most powerful contenders (even against commercial and expensive solutions, like Oracle or SQL Server).
Easy to use RDBS that gets the job done
What do you like best about the product?
It has a lot of integrations with products we use
What do you dislike about the product?
Editing existing data and modifying existing settings isn't as easy as other platforms in my opinion
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use many Atlassian products which recommend using PostgreSQL for their backend, so that's why we're using this.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
After switching to PostgreSQL, we realized there weren't really many amazing benefits over staying with a DB tech we were already familiar with. We still experienced bugs and had to run DB update scripts etc. It was just a little difficult because it was new to us then.
