Best relational database system choice for new app developers

  • May 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The performance of the database is topnotch relating to transactions, concurrency and schema controls
What do you dislike about the product?
It is diffcult to resolve issues/errors as a lot of documentation is not available around this
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We tried to find a low cost alternative db system for a client. So we moved from Oracle to prostgreSQL. This brought the cost down substantially
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are a lot of tools for coverting other SQL scripts to prostgreSQL scripts. So if you are looking to switch it's not that diffcult. Also it will significantly reduce your cost

PostgreSQL - Advanced open source database

  • April 20, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy Installation and Configuration, supports multi-platforms like Windows, macOS, Linux, use existing applications.
Highly reliable open source RDBMS.
Lots of features compared to its competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacks schema versioning, Parallel data query, Feels lacking in performance compared to competitors especially in writing to the database. Postgre upgrade from 9 to 10 was not that great, there was a lot of downtime. Lacks in-memory modes.
Less documentation which may be impediment to new users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work as a consultant and we work on providing technical solution to our clients. We suggested PostgreSQL to one small company we were working with.
I believe PostgreSQL is best suited for smaller and medium sized development project. Since this is open source, it has all the features which are needed for smaller and medium development project. This is also easy to administrate. Postgres has an incredibly flexible and simple-to-use user/role management system.

Postgres usage is increasing in the industry and I believe its market share has increaed to 6% lately. It is really easy to integrate PostgreSQL into our stack. Because of high adoption rate, hiring a developer to implement or service Postgres is easy. Most of the major database libraries of common web frameworks are out there like Rails - ActiveRecord, Spring-Hibernate, Play Scala-Slick. These libraries have out of the box Postgres support, thus no extra configuration is needed for our web applications to read or write to PostgresSQL.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
PostgreSQL is best suited for small and medium development projects. While there is a bit of a learning curve compared to MySQL and SQL server, which may be an issue for the beginner but if you are an experienced software developer or database admin, it is almost perfect for you.
It provides broad feature sets, which are handy for incremental development.
The best part is it's free, so it is a cheap and almost equal alternative to SQL Server since you need to pay a lot for licensing costs of SQL Server for businesses and enterprises.

What do you like best about the product?
The cost point on PostgreSQL is significantly better than the big guns like Oracle.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think this is as redundant a solution or as high capacity as other databases.

I wouldn't say that we're solving problems with it, but it met our need for a database at reduced cost.

It is a World Class database management system that you can get for free. Besides, it is possible to get paid versions that include support.

Until now, I have not found anything that I dislike from this DBMS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I build information systems for the WWW and I use a relational DB concept to store data. Among the types of systems I have developed are: News, Inventory, Documents Digitalization (like invoices and other).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Anyone interested in a DBMS should consider trying PostgreSQL. It is world-class and free. I ask for support using email list subscription and the community response is great and timely. You can optionally find paid options that include special support and configurations with partners like enterprisedb.com. Until now, the free choice has been more than enough for me.
