    Alternative Medicine

PostGreSQL always works

  • January 21, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
PostGreSQL is fast with very slow latencies and is available on most of the clouds. I find it's SQL flavor, particularly amenable to my style of coding and easy to interface to natural query.
It is robust and always works, without crashing and easily distributable.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not yet extended to a NoSQL formulation and has limitations on blob objects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used postgre for medical records and for hosting compressed archives on my local server. I now use it as a plan B on AWS RDS.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely recommend PostGRE, to anyone needing an honest, high performing and reliable database. Botlibre, a company I work with uses postgre for all its bots and it is robust.

Excellent DB with great features

  • January 14, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This DB is open source and its really useful for any small or large scale projects.We are using this from last couple of years and it seems to be very useful product till now.Migration is really easy and SQL can be maintained in well manner.This DB helped us to overcome some performance issues and its really useful to reduce cost.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the query tags is not supported in postgres and query language is difficult to understand for initial beginners. This can improved and documentation is hard to follow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This DB helped our team to reduce maintenance support and it is easy to deploy in cloud. It also helps our teams to manage functions , views and other code in well defined format and performance was really good.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Strongly recommended product for large scale projects.

Flexible and fastest Data base for higher scale projects

  • January 14, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postgres data base is light weighted and flexible data base.Recently we have migrated to Postgres and its really easy to develop and maintain.Since it is open source we got advantage to spend money on cloud services to maintain independently.This data base has lot features and we can use for large scale applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the common SQL language syntax can be maintained without customizations.Some time we feel difficulty to find syntax in online.Otherwise, this DB is better than other open source DB tools.Some times we found some bugs which is related to tags and queries, especially libraries can be improved and documentation can be provided in detail level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to reduce cost by migrating to open source Db. We are able to separate all functions and views without any extra efforts while migrating. These DB helped us to reduce overall cost in Cloud as well, on top of all advantages, query language is very simple.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Strongly recommended DB for any open source ideas.

Great Database System

  • January 08, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Well, over time MySQL and PostgreSQL have grown closer and closer together, but for the longest time I've enjoyed using postgres over other free open source RDMBS because it had more analytical functions. Postgres has been supporting tricky things like window functions which was always super useful for tricky aggregations for reports.

However, what I like best about postgres is probably the actual documentation that is easily available that includes tons of explanations and examples. This means I can quickly make changes and figure out how to make my application needs work just by myself, even if I've never had to use Postgres or another RDMBS to do that task before.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't say I dislike anything about postgres. The things that are 'bad' about postgres are what you get for having a relational database that uses hard disk as storage. But those are normal things that honestly don't usually slow you down or hurt your application.

Sometimes I'll use redis for a fast, non-relational in-memory database, but otherwise I always use postgres since it's free, documented well, and a great tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Well, I simply use postgres to save data in one place like any database. Postgres is a great open source relational database system so it helps keep your data in one place and normalized. I will often setup mini web apps for my company's other teams to quickly pull/aggregate data and reports, and postgres is great for that.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
These days you can drop in replace for MySQL pretty much, but I prefer postgres for the great documentation.

Very user friendly, can easily query large datasets in an efficient manner
What do you dislike about the product?
Reading a file as input is cumbersome and not intuitive.

Querying large data sets on a daily basis for analysis on product usage. Benefits are that it is easy to use and ramp up on for new engineers.

PostgreSQL Review 2019

  • January 06, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The fact it is an open source database which means its free to use.

Postgre has multiple updates a month, making it ever improving to be the best database software possible.

PostgreSQL's query optimizer is far superior to many others it makes retrieving information and the data you need almost instantaneous.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's takes awhile to load due to using all allocated resources from your computer.
It's also causes computers to crash depending on the size of the database(mind you these are older computers/laptops using not the best of processors).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to grab out clients information in a matter of seconds.
It also allows us to update delete and insert new customers as the click of a mouse no query writing, saving time and giving us more time to devote to our clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend

Open source and great support from the community
Fast and excellent performance for database operations

although pgadmin is great interface for postgres, it freezes at times when running complex queries or queries returning large dataset.
Writing complex queries can be difficult
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we used postgersql to store all our data for our analytical projects. Reporting applications were extracting data from postgresql database.
