Simple installation and deployment with excellent free tools.
What do you like best about the product?
I have used Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle in the past. Recently for my latest project I decided to go with MySQL because it was free. I have been able to do what I needed with MySQL without needing to learn much as the SQL language is very standardized. MySQL Workbench also is easier to use than SQL Server Management Studio. It is also supported on more operating systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL does not support data partitions. Scalability is limited to the size of a single server. You need a server for each set of data files. It also doesn't support role based security.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to deploy the database to multiple servers on different operating systems with nearly the same installation procedure. The product is well supported on the Internet which makes solving any problems extremely easy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it for small to medium sized projects. There is also MariaDB which is based on MySQL.
Easy to query
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to query , faster relational database and easy to learn

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Thumbs up
Great database with many uses!
What do you like best about the product?
What is not to like about MySQL? This is one of the easiest to set up, and most versatile databases you can set up, and anyone can use it! Especially since the introduction of the Json type field, which has expanded the use of this type of database even further. Last but certainty not least, this is one of the cheapest database to get set up for a real project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only real downside for MySQL is that the performance scaling is a little poor, and development updates can be a little slow (Although better recently!)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The need to store data, a lot of data. We use our MySQL databases for just about everything, storing our custom calendar events, our client information, marketing data, etc. The ability to store anything with very little set up is one of the biggest benefits.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have looked at all other database solutions for your specific use case
My Experience with MySQL
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about MySQL is how easily I can connect it to any a application and the user friendly editor where I can query and test the database. I like the SQL Editor as I can rerun any line without have to rewrite it. The editor also has few inbuilt features where I can update the database without having to write the actual query. Also the debugging is very easy to detect where I can go through the logs and find out which line is wrong.
What do you dislike about the product?
Installation and set up of MySQL on a MAC OS is very difficult, I struggled in setting up the software. I had to install so many unwanted software to set up this one. Lot of my friends also had the same problem, I did not understand the purpose of these other software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've used MySQL in building a dashboard where I extracted the data from MySQL and queried on Dashboard.
It was very easy for me to connect to my application and run it using very few lines of code.
