  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I am a developer of systems under web environment, and in many opportunities I use MySQL database manager, it is fundamental to in my team for a long time.
MySQL provides easy to use interface to make db queries to read, update, create, deletion of data.
What do you dislike about the product?
It didn't support complex datatypes suck as json and array.
It doesn't support SQL check constraints that is used to validate the data. Although it says that it's scalable upto 8TB MySQL cannot efficiently work with large and complex database
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I love MySQL as it is easy to integrate as compared to Microsoft SQL server.
It is best in terms of performance done the speed of opreciones is very good.

MySQL the best Database tech out there.

  • January 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL provides ease of use. MySQL has cross platform support on which implementation and integration would not be a problem. I like the ease of connection to other programming languages and also management of large data querys.

It is best partnered with other open source products.

Pros:
- First off it is free and open source
- Excellent scale-able database system
- Works perfectly with Linux or Unix servers
- When paired with PHP MyAdmin you can easily work inside your databases from anywhere
- Excellent storage capacity and retrieval
- Can easily store millions of records without issue
- Did I mention it is FREE!
What do you dislike about the product?
It turns slow if you don't have a BEAST server to handle thousands of users at the same time.

More cons:
- Unless you want to be working in a command prompt you need to install 3rd party software like PHP MyAdmin to administrate the database; that said most hosting companies install these by default for you already.
- Some built-in functions to MySQL actually slow down queries to a crawl and ignore your indexes; for example using the DATE() on a datetime column ignores any index in that column.
- Not as robust as Oracle or SQL for large datasets; it will work but it does slow down performance as your data pool grows. Normally this does not happen until you get well into the millions of records and even then there are things you can do to speed up performance but it is worth noting it is not as fast out of the box as other enterprise systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company posses hunders of databases which contains millions of records and i assure you MySQL is the best relational database management system that would meet the needs of the company.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The reason why I recommend this product is because many more people are switching over to it and it's fairly easy to use. New businesses or other new organizations would be ideal for this as it will be easy to transfer over from what they had before MySQL.

Great for Relational Database

  • January 20, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is a great platform for using and learning relational databases. If you are new to databases and want to learn it quickly and practice your own queries then MYSQL is the best. It has the facility of both reverse and forward engineering which makes it easy for implementing data set using E-R diagram and vice versa.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL is overall a great product but I don't like the UI of it. The operations on UI are difficult to find and understand. It is great for using for learning purpose but I believe cannot be used for industrial purpose. Additionally, it does not support many Enhanced E-R notations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Can learn and implement basic SQL commands. E-R implementation is the best part of it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great product for relational databases and E-R modeling.

The only thing I dislike is that Oracle owns it and they are garbage
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use MySQL everyday for many web apps that require database. it works good with PHP
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its just good works out of the box just get PMA for web administration and MySQL workbench for desktop and your set.
