Excellent Open-Source Database Platform for all kinds of projects, small to large.

  • July 05, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Mysql has been the database platform we have been using now for 15+ years and i has been extremely easy for everyone in the team to use and optimize on a daily basis. Finding new talent has been extremely easy as well since this is a database platform very widely used.
What do you dislike about the product?
We would like to see more being done with the cluster mysql platform and more adaptation around it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is the primary database platform we use for our organization and it has allowed us to grow very well without incurring too many recurring costs for using the platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great open source database platform.

Best database engine that's not MSSQL

  • July 05, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's open source, runs on any platform, and is lightning fast! It's my preferred DB when I'm developing on a Linux environment. If you're developing sites using PHP, it's a must-have. Even my .Net projects use it, when available.
What do you dislike about the product?
The management client is clunky, and could use an overhaul. It's sluggish, but gets the job done.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cross-platform database engine. It works like a dream! Huge cost savings as compared to SQL Server.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely give it a shot. It's a little different than MSSQL Server, but easy to transition to.

MySQL as persistence layer for PHP-based systems

  • July 02, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The great flexibility, continuous improvements and that it is standards-based.
The vast amount of information you can find on-line due to the big user base that MySQL has.
The easy of use of the graphical interface (MySQL Workbench)
What do you dislike about the product?
The uncertainty due to competency with Oracle as the main (and competing) product of the parent company.
I think there is a risk that the product will loose against the competency (e.g. MariaDB) or due to internal conflicts with the Oracle team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
First, that it freely available, so, it helps bring the budget down for the on-going operation.
Second, it solves our persistence layer, in a standard way, using mostly SQL-92 syntax.
It has great on-line help, and there are many references, since it is widely used across all industries.
It has been able to solve the storage needs both for our website, and our mobile applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it as a data repository only.
Do not depend on product-specific features.
Try to use only SQL-92 compliant sentences.
Always check the performance of your queries.

Perfect for small to moderate data sets.

  • June 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is open source and is a relational database. Since it is in the market for a while, support is not a big problem. There is plethora of knowledge in the internet for any issues. There are good number of IDE's to view and manage data.

We used mysql in our company with out any issues with data sets up to 100 million records.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since it is open source, there can be some bugs in newer versions of mysql - because of this, it is not always best to upgrade to the newest version of the software. We had some issues when we tried to increase number of threads that interact with the database - in other words, we observed some issues when too many clients are trying to access data in the DB.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We store data that is not at large scale in MySQL especially because it is easy to setup. New employees can pick it up fairly easily as well - this saves organizations time and effort in teaching new technology.

Unless we think an application will create more than 100 million records we tend to use MySQL for storing our data, because we observed that up to 100 million records, mysql performance is just fine.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Adjust your database settings based on the amount of data you want to store. Research to make sure there are not too many bugs when installing a version of MySQL.
