MySQL Review

  • May 07, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's free for managing your sql database online. The interface for PHP MyAdmin has improved over the years and handles a myriad of database operations
What do you dislike about the product?
Default values are too low. With broadband, 500 records can easily be loaded on screen at a single time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL runs on all of our websites, four (4) of them to be exact. MySQL stores prices and data for all of our parts beneath a Wordpress interface. I also have a hand coded custom website that hold 5000 records of data in the music industry using MySQL. It is an online searchable database with fields such as artist, venue, city, state, country.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
make backups, if you are new at administering databases, you will make errors. You can easily restore in literally just a few minutes, and you will be right back where you started from where you left off before the error occurred.

MySQL is Powerful and able to handle high traffic sites.

  • May 04, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL increases the performance of applications, its portable, secure re-usable and transparent.
What do you dislike about the product?
The memory usage increases with every connection, restricted to complex business logic and difficulty to debug and maintain.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If you want any real degree of concurrency or require higher levels of security as well as user permissions management mySQL is the way to go.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You can’t just directly integrate MySQL with your app like SQLite, it requires that you install it and then connect it to your app.
