MySQL works well for the database that I have

  • March 31, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We have an application that uses MySQL on the back end. Since using it I have started to migrate some of my other databases to MySQL. Previously our databases were in Access or MSSQL There is some syntax differences but it does everything I need.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do a lot of integration with PowerShell. This isn't as much of an issue with MySQL as it is with windows updates but I recently had to change a lot of PowerShell scripts because the driver that I was using is seen as a security issue. I have fixed it by using the ODBC connection in windows but it was annoying to change.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have an application that requires lists of employees usernames as well as employee numbers. I can get everything out of active directory easy enough but this other software will easily integrate with Oracle, MSSQL, and MySQL. My solution was to create a simple table in MySQL that keeps a list of employee names, usernames and employee numbers. It works flawlessly with my script that creates accounts for new employees I update and maintain that table in MySQL
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I use it because it came with DocuWare. From there I simply added tables that would make things easy and beneficial to me. As with any good software it will be what you make it.

Free database with a lot of potential

  • March 13, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is a free and open source database manager. Its installation is fast and we can find it merged with other software such as XAMP or WAMP. The main advantage is that it behaves like the rest of SQL databases in general, but its storage capacity as information increases is significantly reduced. Another advantage of MySQL is that it connects to almost all programming languages, since being free is a very good option to test in development and avoid buying licenses that are not necessary.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is very limited in high availability aspects and in handling large volumes of information without taking into account the techniques that can help to better manage the information. I do not like that your official site redirects to the Oracle page, although you are the owner of MySQL, I think you should provide both the ODBC and the database installer from the same website without the need to redirect us to the manufacturer page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has helped me connect various programming languages to have my data persistence layer. I have used it with C ++, C #, Java, Python, Ruby on Rails, NodeJS. Its operation is very good and very fast. It does not need large configurations to more than one user with permissions and password. Its connection is very transparent and its performance is very good in a development environment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try MySQL for your developments, it is a free option and easy to implement. You can do different tests to see what its maximum performance is.

Best Database Management Software

  • January 08, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a free ASCII text file code available on the market that's easy to understand. It is globally recognized for its safety features and trusted by top-tier internet application platforms like Drupal, Joomla, and WordPress. It has a specific storage engine for optimal performance. The code offers a 24/7 uptime guarantee. It is also a widely used product. It has a large online support community worldwide that helps each other solve various developer issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
Scaling MySQL is labor-intensive, and if you attempt it, you will need a significant amount of effort and capital to hire skilled engineers to make it work for a large application. It's fine for a start, but in the future, for a growing application, it will be a challenge. Its performance also degrades for larger applications. It doesn't support some standards of SQL-92, which is a major drawback for a large web application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am designing web applications and connecting MySQL as its database for the application.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make MySQL scalable even if it is for a cost. It's a nice program.
