For the longest time, a great DB product, with growing stability

  • October 05, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
For years, I've been using MySQL as the base for the majority of open-source products I've worked with. From installation to integration, nothing has been easier, and configuration has always been a breeze.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally, and upgrade on a Ubuntu box may not work properly when automated, but there's plenty of documentation from others out there who've experienced the same thing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently using it as a back-end DB for Piwik. Performance outweighs any others

Great capabilities, requires training

  • October 04, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the ability to create queries in real time that fit my project needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was not an intuitive program. As a young professional I hadn't been taught SQL so I had to find free training in order to complete my project tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to compare and query large data sets that would have taken significantly longer with any other program. We mostly use it for research data analysis and finding potential research participants that fit eligibility requirements.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As an opensource tool you really can't go wrong with trying it out. We've been able to enhance our data analysis greatly with this tool.

Best Open Source Database

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to get started with a database. Simplicity in Feature implementation like replication and storage engines is the best part. SQL is pretty simple to play with in mysql. I have been using mysql for past 11 years and have always enjoyed working with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Limitations in community version. even though mysql is open source but features like PAM authentication is only available to enterprise mysql.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scalability and cost effectiveness without compromising on performance

MySQL is scaleable and can be used on different platforms

  • September 28, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The fact that Oracle MySQL is an excellent choice for multi-platform environments makes it a lot more desirable than SQL Server. It is as capable and the performance is on par with any other database in existence today.
What do you dislike about the product?
Porting a MySQL application to Microsoft SQL Server, or to a competing SQL database engine, requires a significant amount work. SQL Server is backward compatible, MySQL in comparison not so much.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a giant retail company that operates thousands of stores throughout America and many more abroad. We use MySQL to manage active store information, among other things. I have realized that SQL in MySQL workbench makes it very easy for us to work with our stores data/database. It is highly customization and the UI is extremely flexible.

The Best Free Little Relational Database

  • September 19, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is like the GMC of databases.It's everywhere, it's easy to work on, and it's easy to find people who know how to use it.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL is still clunky. You need to live in the command line. It doesn't abstract away the operating system enough.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Rarely is MySQL used for any reason other than it's bundled with the product you're already using, like WordPress.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're thinking about MySQL and you don't really know much about relational databases, back up. And if you're looking for a relational database option you should also be considering NoSQL options. If you don't know about that, back up.
