Great database to use as backend for smaller websites
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, fairly easy to learn MySQL scripts. And also the ability to integrate this within websites (e.g. through PHP).
What do you dislike about the product?
For visual access to a database I have always used other tools like PHPmyAdmin tools, I would have like to use native apps on my desktop to access the database. Do not know if these are available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Running a back-end databased for a website, analysing large amounts of data by linking multiple databases.

What do you dislike about the product?
well, I don't think you should use MySQL for big databases.
The performance can be very poor.
Anyway, with proper tunning, you can get it working.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly to support web applications with a database
MySQL is the free DB that you should use!
What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is a SQL based relational database that's now owned by Oracle (eww). It's still free (community edition), supports all of the fancy things SQL Server supports as well as clustering!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish MySQL would support replication across availability zones in AWS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Persistence of user information for cloud enterprise software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
1) Make sure that your uses are fulfilled by a relational database and not a key/value store.
User-friendly SQL tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to lay down your projects visually with MySQL workbench a nice GUI makes working with MySQL a breeze. Its speed and stability are great too!
What do you dislike about the product?
Though I don't dislike anything about MySQL, I must admit the learning curve was a bit steep at the beginning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to integrate a full-featured SQL engine in a number of data mining applications. MySQL provides a fairly intuitive way to organize large datasets to be called later on in machine learning applications.
MySQL review
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use, and I prefer the MySQL language.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike. It's somewhat limited in it's capabilities, but that's not why you're using this. But not even very limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data queries from large data sets
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It depends on your needs and language preference. Do your research, but don't hesitate if this comes out on top.
Great RDBS platform, but really stagnated once Oracle bought it
What do you like best about the product?
Still easy enough to use after all these years.
What do you dislike about the product?
After Oracle acquired them, progress and feature growth died. MariaDB seemed to pick up where that acquisition left off
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL is naturally the backend for a few WordPress sites we have (though we almost went with MariaDB out of spite against Oracle ; )
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you just need a regular WordPress or Drupal or conventional website with lower traffic, MySQL is still a viable option. But if you need to scale and provide high availability, then you need to look into MariaDB or even AWS Aurora. I'd also recommend using AWS RDS and creating clusters.

Been using MySql for years for website projects. Easy to use and great documentation.

it can get complex very quickly, lots of ways to do one thing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we would use it at a lab to store analytical data to follow trends of the opiod crisis at a pharma company
Excellent system

A well designed and supported system that works well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its difficult to answer this question because they're is nothing I dislike about the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use mySQL and now mariaDB for a number of solutions which include my time keeping system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I used mySQL exclusively, but have now switched to mariaDB which is 100% compatible with mySQL.
Great tool with help from developer
