What do you like best about the product?
MYSQL has made it possible for our Tribe to use and store water quality data and also share it with the EPA, and I've worked with technicians at USET to have it installed and now it's running fine and we are able to manage our data.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can get a little technical, but that's why I had technicians from USET to help me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides the platform we needed to install and manage our WQX database and submit our water quality data to the EPA. It makes it a lot easier to share data than other platforms.
Great open-source platform for SQL table management across applications.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to pick up for someone with cursory or no SQL experience. The amount of online learning material makes this a simple investment for anyone looking to utilize databases in their projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting ODBC connectors and other plugins to cooperate with third-party programs when you're trying to pass SQL data between them can be a hassle depending on system infrastructure. Getting appropriate information on this was a bit harder than learning about the product itself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL provided a great framework for our organization to convert large-N datasets from XLS/CSV into a format we could pass on to our colleagues across the nation for statistical analysis in SPSS and other programs. It provided flexibility and ease of access that we weren't able to achieve with less centralized solutions.

I used mySQL exclusively, but have now switched to mariaDB which is 100% compatible with mySQL.
Robust implementation of true SQL

A robust SQL engine (which has gone from open source to Oracle ownership). Ideally suited for read vs transactional but moving in that direction. Ability to cluster, replicate and a whole host of tunability and monitoring Available on Windows.

Documentation could be better in both organization and examples.
