  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy set-up with simple web interface.If you are not a DBA and would rather spend time coding your project than configuring a database, this is great. It is the backbone of many web based CDN and shopping sites because of its ease of use and low barrier to entry.

I am not going to pretend it is perfect but I haven't found any limitations or negatives in my use. We use several databases but use MySql for many web applications and it is a fit for our needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems - I haven't had any. Agree, I am not trying to say it is going to be everything for everyone but it has met our needs extremely well and should be on your list of choices.

Benefits - Time savings. You can get a MySql instance and database up and running quickly and spending your coding time on , , , coding!!!!

Mysql installation is process is very simple and it creates server by itself, the launchtime of mysql workbench is fast, the execution of queries is very user friendly, the error are displayed with very easy to understand syntax, hover over on error will display the exact error description, mysql overall is a great application

The query execution takes time, i did not find any guide to execute the queries with commands, everytime need execute it through mouse click, the terminal for writing sql is very small, it acquires a large block of internal memory of system
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used it as main databse for medium size mainly php based web applications on windows machines

Best database management system that exists

  • September 08, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
With this product, I can easily manage, organize and manipulate the data. It helps a lot in my daliy life to handle the data with stored procedures, triggers, cursors, functions, views etc. Easil adding new schemas in a table by simply using create table syntax or adding/modifying data with insert/update/alter query. Maximum of my work done from back end (MySql), if data is not coming in the table then i just check the table columns values. The best thing i like kt most is that it is open source application, anyone can easily use it.
Performance is good. May be a little slower than others in huge databases although we didn't get to that point yet. We have tables with millions of records that query and update even quicker than SQL server.Paid support is available.It can be used as server over Windows and Linux OS's, beeing the latter the one that ofers the best performance of both.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really have any complaints about mysql. It can be difficult to upgrade between versions as it's quite strict with how it handles versioning and data, but this can be seen as a pro and not necessarily a con in tight infrastructure scenarios since it is so strict.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it on daily basis, running queries from workbench software and from projects code, creating tables and new instances of the database.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
85% of our client websites of small and medium scale enterprises are working with MySQL. Till date there is not any issues raised by them on database problems.

MySQL is the easiest DBMS to learn

  • September 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL syntax is easy to to work with. Even a newbie can read and understand what the syntax does. MySQL DBMS usually come with an interactive user interface for managing your database and the system reflects the right syntax for every operation on the database your make via the user interface
What do you dislike about the product?
Error messages in MySQL syntax are rare but difficult to catch sometimes. For instance the interpreter always says there is an error near a certain portion of your code but does not show exactly where and what error it is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL databases are easy to implement on most system and you're likely to find a MySQL instance on any web hosting platform

MySQL and why I like it

  • September 04, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is one of the easiest SQL RDBMSs that one can use and it still free and can be downloaded which is a very big advantage for us who have to work on s string budget from the management.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only problem is that it is part of the LAMP technology and therefore one has to be adept at operations in LINUX., Apache, PHP programming language. All of which I only know as given by the Company hands on training
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am in the electricity transmission and distribution sector (i.e. POWER SECTOR) and on this RDBMSs we have successfully launched a very complicated a CRM System Project. And in conjunction with GIS we have already gone below the standard set up by the West Bengal State Electricity Regulatory Committee which under the Central Body of CERC.
Along wit this we have developed, designed and commissioned many other Projects related to the Power Sector.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a quick start up and with enough engine power and a tight scheduled timeline with people under you ho have the requisite know ledge of the LAMP technology then this is the place where you should start with and the beauty of this is that ir grows with the growth of the particular busines you are in.
