Best in class

  • April 20, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Everything about postgres is quite lovely. We use it for our startup and its quite cool. We switched from MySQL to postgres. One thing that I most love in postgres is that it is schema based, which makes it cool for our needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much I dislike about postgres, Its quite cool. Maybe one thing i would suggest (Not I dislike). Maybe we can have some GUI based tool for querying for non-tech guys to query too. Other than the pgAdmin tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it as the primary database for our web-app.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you really want some Database that is less complex and easy to use, then I would suggest to go with Postgres. And the community is also quite growing super fast.

Free and really good database not only for scientists but also for business applications

  • April 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is free
big community
a lot of extensions
the ability to use Python
it just works
What do you dislike about the product?
Limiting the number of columns in the table. However, other databases have similar limitations.

Older versions had very nice tools, in particular the SQL client. In newer versions, it has been replaced by a nicer graphical solution that is slow and sometimes slightly annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used PostgreSQL in Data Mining and BI projects. I used it as background database for solutions based on JIRA. Moreover I used PostgreSQL for specialized engines that are working in on-line class systems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A complete tool, free and easy to integrate with other software. For this you can create your own functions in PL-SQL and Python. Accessibility, stability, sense of security - these are the main features that caused me and the organizations for which I work to reach for this product.

Setup a database quickly for my low transactions business scenario, reduce the cost of product and license fee

Great Alternative to traditional Commercial Databases

  • March 27, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
PostgreSQL has grown in both popularity and features. It is now on par with many of the commercial database servers. Because of its popularity, if you need commercial support, you can find it. If you can go it all alone, you can save you (and your company money). It is available for many OSes to suite your needs
What do you dislike about the product?
Windows support has lagged behind Linux/Unix for a number of years. Some of the tooling feels weird when you run it on Windows. I think if they want better adoption on Windows, they should create native (non-cli) tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are replacing expensive commercial database servers with PostgreSQL. This has helped us avoid the cost of expensive database serves when an Open Source solution would do just fine.

I use SQL to derive insights from very big data.

  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The way how easy it is to customize the database to suit your needs.

One can use DB Protection for PostgreSQL using IBM Spectrum Protect to have a very efficient and fast backup as it o my backup changes in the database.
