MYSQL: Great to use, but very buggy at times (depending on which version you are on.)

  • December 25, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simple interface, ease of use UI and at times somewhat user friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The program at times crashes randomly and it does not provide a clear explanation on how or why it crashed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using mysql to handle several test environments in our schemas and databases before we actually go live. Benefits are that mysql is pretty common and universal with other programs when integrating it.

Open source database

  • December 24, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As we know that mysql is widely used and adopted, it offers great performance along with easy to use interface and features for it's users. It acn be configured over WAN and LAN networks. It arranges data in structured manner which makes it simple and clear design to understand and tackle with it accordingly. Supported by a wide range of softwares and servers.
What do you dislike about the product?
As we see it's structure and working we will get to know that it's not start out as RDBMS which limits it user's area. It is open source which raise a risk of data loss at replication. Because of it's structural design it doesn't have any automated switchover or overhead. It has tough scaling and it is not community driven it is owned by Oracle.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During my graduation I was in an internship with a company that requires a relational database to hold there data in an structured manner and also there data is not considered as big data so at that time I implemented mysql database at there backend in order to support there data system. With the help of tables, rows and columns it makes easier to locate and alter any kind of data in it's cell. Apart of this it's queries are well designed which does all the work without much typing or code. Due to it's ability to collaborate with every software they are keep on using it as there database for website and application too.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Due to it's wide usage and wide using ability, it is used by many developers and this makes it a recommended database for any kind of technical data storing work. Apart of this anyone can customise it according to their wish as it is an open source software.

Data management database

  • December 16, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Mysql is reliable and can be trusted for performance. It provides a low-level graphical interface that makes it easy to understand what to do and where to do it. It supports questions that are mostly written in English sentences that can be explained in the same way as English. Also mysql is used to work with large datasets which can be further used to work in our premises.
What do you dislike about the product?
This has performance-poor scaling. It does not support some modern database features such as ROLE and COMMIT that are required in any database. Additionally it causes some stability issues below version 5.0, does not have some features and after that version it becomes less compatible for older systems. It can be used to hold data but to a certain extent, there are some limitations to its use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was using mysql to structure and manage my data in the development phase of my website. At that time I need a database to hold large rows of data and many times I need a suitable cell, so there will be no other database other than mysql to get the data in real time without delay.
These are many things to provide customers with data security, efficient and optimized data redundancy, data cloning etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It has a separate server to manage it's machines and provides services. It is recommended to all the developers and technical experts.

Best known databases

  • November 20, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Mysql is an open source database which provides the actual idea of internal functioning and build structure. It support comprehensive transactional ability. It has a powerful build quality that is helpful for handling large data so that no dataloss occurs or data should be consistently available for processes. It also offers high data security that will help to protect data in efficient manner.
What do you dislike about the product?
It occurs some issue like in the lower version before 5.0 it doesn't support ROLE, commit. It also incurs some stability issues. Requires high memory to process as well as difficulty to debug and maintain the data inside. It also offers some sort of inconsistencies when used with other tools and softwares.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
While development of some websites or softwares I usually uses python as a developing language. And generally they required a database to handle all the data so for that I generally used mysql to build sql database which is effective and efficient to provide data at times required. Along with this it also helps to manipulate add and terminate data rows as well as tables on direct command to it's command line.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As we know that it is the most known database in today's era which makes it recommended to all existing users and also for the non-existing users.
It also helps to store large data sets that help in supporting functioning of big websites.

Prefect database mysql

  • October 30, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
If we talk about the best in MySQL then I think everything inside it is the best. Strong behavior, consistent nature, helps to integrate with big data to handle it, starting with atomic-like properties and working together and never disappointing you. It is easy to implement the query language to use it. Also, installing this server is the easiest task among the rest of the database servers.
What do you dislike about the product?
As we all know that nothing is right in this era, this database has some errors and limitations in its favor. Like I encounter a problem when using, when I need to store more than one value inside the cell of a table in MySQL, but it will not allow me to do so. However it also has some restrictions that use integer fields as primary keys and foreign keys.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As part of my final internship project, I needed to create a django website where I needed to integrate mysql with front and back to handle my database. At the time I wanted MySQL to choose my preferred database because of reliability and stability. This helped me to complete my project on time and encouraged me to develop more projects like this. However I think there are possibilities to go beyond what is there to serve the user.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Due to it's acid properties and long lasting support with robust behaviour, it is recommended to a wide range of users. It has some impressive usage to be used in large projects.

MySQL is a very novice tool to do a lot of great stuff with data.

  • October 27, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about MySQL in general is that it is very easy to code in. I have a lot of "new to coding" members on my team, and I find that using MySQL to code has helped them to pick up quickly. For example, the coding is very straight forward to English when using the expression "WHERE VARIABLE LIKE '%WORD%'".
What do you dislike about the product?
My biggest dislike about MySQL is when you run a line of code that fails, the error message is either vague, or way too long to explain what actually happened. I have coded in R, and it explicitly tells you what is wrong, where with MySQL, sometimes you have a weird error message that you have to google, but the error only showed up because you forgot a comma or something simple like that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are working with big data. We are using MySQL to house all of our data, and this has been very good for us because MySQL works VERY fast with very minimal time out issues. We have been able to pull massive reports, build stored procedures, views, and tables to help us solve business problems through our company.
