I have been using MySql for 10+ years
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of setup / ease of use. Also works by default with our Wordpress site. PHP MyAdmin is a great interface to control / populate / import / export your DB
What do you dislike about the product?
When the DB gets too large, you have to alter your search parameters unless you will wait a very long time for results to populate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL is the foundation database that runs 3 of our company's websites for Corporate, Medical, Dental. We haven't lost a bit of data since day 1 implementation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's recommended that you have full UTF-8 support configured in MySQL. If this is not done some character sets, notably emojis, cannot be used. It is possible to do this after your site is installed but it is much easier before installation.
First check if this is already configured by running the following statement, e.g. at the mysql> prompt or in phpMyAdmin:
SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES WHERE variable_name IN ('innodb_file_format', 'innodb_large_prefix', 'innodb_file_per_table');

Low maintenance, lightweight and secured enterprise level solution
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about MySQL DB is its server requirements. The software itself is small and does not require huge resources to install. When compared to other enterprise level DB softwares, MySQL is lightweight and easy to deploy. Not to mention it is open source and free to deploy unless you need additional professional support.
What do you dislike about the product?
It starts suffering when really huge amount of data is stored. Less reliable when used for DB heavy applications that require series of fast transactions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy and quick to deploy. Great for hosting your websites and small e-commerce applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it. Saves development time and lower maintenance.
Very Detailed & Helpful Database Platform
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about this platform is its ability to allow customization for users in order to really narrow down and focus upon the exact details of your selected search options.
What do you dislike about the product?
What is there to dislike in all reality. This platform allows users to find nothing but actions aka facts, based upon user usage via your company's SAAS application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business problems which have been solved are related to finding where the exact discrepancy or error within used mathematical formulas used to calculate financials for business clients, when a discrepancy cannot be quickly or easily found, using this software will allow you to narrow areas of interest to search for such discrepancies as well as very detailed info related to how the discrepancy arose and stayed in error.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Trust me, this platform offers you gold in the form of the incredibly useful and extremely detailed information that your clients will love to know about more than you; after all, happy clients are loyal clients!
MySQL Database Review
What do you like best about the product?
MySQL can be used almost for all of my projects as it is an open source and robust database management system. It also can be installed on most of the platforms including Linux, Windows and Mac. It is secure as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL is a relational database and can model only traditional data and cannot be used to handle unstructured data which is crucial for data analytics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL is the basic, robust and trusted database management system which can be used for projects that require high stability and reliability
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MySQL is the trusted database management system which anyone can use without any doubts as it has been around for a long time.
MySql Experience
What do you like best about the product?
Its simple and easy to use and setup. Low overhead on maint. and management
What do you dislike about the product?
its a bit watered down version of SQL, depending on what is needed for. I use it for a very small database so it works well
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
small in house written application. I use this version for my Syslog entries. Easier to query when looking for a particular entry.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
easy to manage to huge overhead. It can run on a not so high end server.
Fast database with spatial support
What do you like best about the product?
It has support for spatial data and spatial functions, and it is fast with a small overhead.
The spatial functions support is great. For example, while trying to figure out which points belongs to which areas, using the functions we were able to have it faster than doing it externally to the database.
Comparing mysql to other players shows that it supports what we need with low requirements on hardware and also on configuration steps to get it up and running. Also, using it to have our integration tests was not a big deal, its possible because it has a low overhead, and we could create a docker image with a base database to execute everything on it. Using this approach or a memory database solution brought us very similar performance for the tests, but with mysql supporting much faster spatial implementation, and this is a big requirement for our integration tests execution to succeed.
Mysql also has dual license, supporting open source projects and commercial projects.

What do you dislike about the product?
The dump feature may be improved for big databases, it is slow to import from sql files.
The solution I have found to create a docker image with a big database volume was based on creating multiple dumps with the biggest tables separated from the rest of the database. Otherwise every time I try to import it, it crashes.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the spatial support with supporting functions in Mysql 5.7 or higher versions.
