2021 - MariaDB in NOT MySQL -IT is SO much more!

  • May 15, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Being a MySQL Fork once upon a time, and the fact the original developer of MYSQL runs MariaDB, it is compatible, familiar, and very easy to get up to speed, even scale. Its direction and focus on features is "for purpose". JSON ,GIS, ColumnStore... and more.. give it full hybrid OLAP/OLTP. 1.5 billion row tables on a single instance - with what would be considered "low" end VM! Fantastic!
What do you dislike about the product?
My only issue would not be a MariaDB fault -but rather that it is often mistaken and referred to as MySQL, unfairly skewing the numbers against MariaDB. Testament to just how compatible it had remained.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Without MariaDB, bootstrapping our now maturing startup would never have been possible. Low cost with available staff skills. Rapidly having to scale Ingest and processing while keeping hardware to a minimum, impressively so. 1.5 billion row tables and no technical debt, with the dev team seeming to be 1 step ahead of our needs, delivering improvements and new features, but always comfortably familiar. I have nothing but absolute praise. Now to address the issues that it is not MySQL - it is SO much more!

MariaDB is a very useful database manager for local development and testing

  • March 15, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like MariaDB because it works under a relational scheme. It is possible to store, retrieve and manipulate data with ease. Another reason I like this software is that it has Aria as its storage engine, which allows complex queries to be made in short periods of time. Also, the data can be easily imported and exported.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not had any problems so far with MariaDB, even its performance is very good thanks to its cache in RAM.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MariaDB's learning curve is very short and that's the biggest benefit, since it's basically a replacement for MySQL. With this database administrator I can create multiple databases to store a wide variety of data from the different applications that we have in the organization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend using this database manager, especially for testing or local development. Also, if I previously work with MySQL it will work under the same scheme with MariaDB.

You have to made a deep tuning to gather full performance with huge data.

Use of a poweful DBMS to solve your Company needs without spending money and with a support of a big community to deals with probems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it for sure for medium/small projects. If you need to move to huge data, you have to eval and make a good project before choose wich DBMS to use.

A great tool with high integration

  • September 03, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The tool comes with an excellent user interface, is easy to set up and use, and is very effective when it comes to database administration. What I highlight most are the Alert Table queries, as in MariaDB you can check progress on a list of processes, so you can always keep a visual track on the progress
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of personal support community approach Lacks GUI interface as far as I know to install in the Linux desktop environment. I've had some problems with scalability, but that's a small database and centralized data The migration is not the easiest to use, compared to other applications I've used in the past.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This information helps when informing our customers, besides maintaining some metadata for analytical purposes is too powerful and increases the speed of data synchronization of our software Mysqltuner is an incredible program to help you adjust the settings The migration has never been so easy and generally has a good performance
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A tool with good integration with others, to work comfortable and very functional.

Ideal for web development database management

  • July 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's great to use a tool that has a secure database, which is critical to our infrastructure. Other applications may be known to be less secure which is what our primary concerns are.
What do you dislike about the product?
Migration is not the easiest to use, compared to other applications I have used in the past.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this for data visualization of some of our ads page data. We retrieve that information into our database and use that for our visualization.

Best experience with maria DB

  • July 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
i install this SGDB to test some applications that i develop, and needed keep my packege with small size.
I was surprised, positively, with MariaDB, that hav a great performance and a lot of resources available in other databases more expensives.
One of this resources was a possibility of use store procedures and create full routines to treat data.
The security was a good suprise too, with many leves of acess to different users.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that i don´t liked was the instalation on linux. I need did a lot of configuration in txt files. If the developers create an application to make friendlly interface, to configurate, and improve compatibility with Mysql Workbench, will be perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
the great point of mariaDB is the small size, that make easy deploy with any application, with a reduced size.
I create a webservices that use the mariaDB to query customers and products, with great easy, because it is full compatible with PHP scripts

MariaDB is very easy to use and is updated frequently

  • July 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
For starters, what strikes me most about MariaDB is that it is open source. It is excellent that it has a large community of users that contribute to its development. On the other hand, it has GIS features which facilitates location data queries. In addition, it has excellent accessories such as Connect and Spider to improve storage. I can also highlight its simplicity to migrate, being a replacement for MySQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think this database manager is not as scalable as it is for example, MongoDB or Cassandra. I have had some problems with scalability, but that is a small database and centralized data. I have also had problems with the cluster, which stops due to inactivity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MariaDB to store data that we collect in digital marketing. For us, it was very easy to migrate from MySQL to MariaDB. In addition, it is very modern and easy to access. On the other hand, it facilitates our works and projects by having much updated documentation online at our disposal.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MariaDB promotes day by day development in their community. In addition, its code is available in all public repositories and all development phases are also available. It is flexible and usually has a good performance. I recommend it, for those old MySQL developers.
