Software as a service business
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This era with shiny tools, one of those is MongoDB but I can say it is not a one-size fit all solution. On our app, we highly require referential integrity between our data and MySQL provides it.
Awesome

Quick and easy
What do you like best about the product?
MySQL was a quick and easy method for running SQL queries on large data sets. It was pretty similar to tools I had used previously and made for a pretty easy learning curve. Using the tool was above my ability and knowledge when I first started; but after a little research into how SQL works, I was good to go. It was definitely easier that the method we had used prior - filtering in Excel. But more than that, it worked well and quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
It could have been a bit easier with common functions prebuilt for drag-and-drop or just a quick reference, depending on user's experience level. Probably not needed for most cases. I will acknowledge that I did not built out the database we were using, just queried against it, though I did have to designate my primary key and the like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use MySQL to validate and troubleshoot very large data sets.
Prior to the time my team implemented SQL databases and using MySQL was recommended, our only option for debugging large data sets was to filter in Microsoft Excel. Not only is it highly limited, but Excel didn't really handle any of that well. I had started with a few different SQL tools and ended up sticking with MySQL because of its ease of use.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I found MySQL to be very easy to use. I did have to research some SQL to figure out what I needed, but it was pretty simple to pick up and run with it.
Application Review

Maintains my SQL statement should my computer reboot or crash.
What do you dislike about the product?
The database can be slow when querying data.
