Great option as a NoSQL enterprise DB
What do you like best about the product?
The variety of access methods Java API like Node.js, Client API, ODBC, RESTful HTTP API ,SPARQL, WebDAV,XDBC ,XQuery and XSLT. The concept of Role-based access control at the document level is also sokmehting which I liked.
What do you dislike about the product?
The licencing cost. That would be a dislike. Also I could not find enough connectors for Marklogic. Also the deserializing/serializing data into and out of the internal data model but then that also helps in easy retrieval, hence it cuts out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are storing the metadata of Chats, fax and mails along with some documents. Also the metadata for videos calls are also stored in the database.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Would recommend if used to store metadata. It is really good. specially the
Powerful NoSQL Database
What do you like best about the product?
Marklogic is a no SQL database which is platform independent, so it can be used on any kind of OS which meets it's system requirements. Thus it can ingest from any kind of source.
It can be used for various purposes like app data management, data storage and view data in a graphical manner. Sharding of data can be done and replication of data is also done in marklogic. It follows the ACID property of data base management system. Marklogic is used mainly for storing of XML received, and is considered as one of the best NoSQL tools available in the market

What do you dislike about the product?
In Mark logic, we don't have the provision of multiple user having access at the same time. In some conditional types only this can be incorporated. The programming language used is totally different (brat), which gets a bit complex for experienced people in learning new language.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Mark Logic as the back end data base to store the Metadata, of customers. The content is stored in Nuxeo and as we are aware that mark logic can ingest data from most of the data sources so it provides an ease in moving from traditional storage system to marklogic.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend Marklogic to others, as it is the only NoSQL tool which provides so much ease in managing data and ingesting from any data source.
Makes me smile

Senior Product Manager
What do you like best about the product?
It seems to be a solid and robust database system and we don't really have a lot of issues with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure that the language packs are as robust as they need to be. They are also expensive for under-proven software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MarkLogic as an operational data store to build search products on.
Marklogic is a centerpiece in our architecture
What do you like best about the product?
MarkLogic is both a repository and a search engine. It handles XML data natively.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the search / indexing capabilities need improvement. Its physical architecture is not ideal for cloud deployment (although it works just fine).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MarkLogic as our main search & retrieval engine for all of our content
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider both your search requirements and your retrieval requirements when evaluating tools in this space. Consider you content enrichment requirements and your performance / latency requirements for getting new documents indexed and searchable
Architect and Developer for custom systems using MarkLogic
What do you like best about the product?
The system is very robust and with version 8 has removed much of the arcane manual tuning that was needed in older versions. If you are storing and manipulating XML documents, it is very simple for the amount of power it gives you. MarkLogic has excellent documentation and support ecosystem. There are usually other people who have encountered similar issues in the past and their development mailing list is active. Their recent integration with REST, JSON and node.js has substantially simplified building integrated systems on top of MarkLogic. With the recent additions of Active Directory and JSON as first-class-object, it is possible to build a system from the ground up very quickly using only MarkLogic and world-class front-end tools like AngularJS or EmberJS. MarkLogic's support for fully ACID transactions is very rare in the NoSQL market and their reliability is significantly better than anything I've encountered in the open-source NoSQL ecosystem.
What do you dislike about the product?
MarkLogic has moved somewhat away from the pure XML world and has not kept up to date with XQuery 3.0, XProc, XQuery Update Facility, etc. They seem to prefer to enhance their proprietary features rather than implement additional standards compliance into their product. I would like to see them improve some of their basic functionality like normalizing their API and refactoring some of the more confusing areas (HTTP FORM handling, native file read/write/delete, etc.).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used MarkLogic as a Document Database in a NoSQL environment to support Fortune 500 customers. We have build custom web-content-managment, component-content-management, document archival and publishing. We have also used MarkLogic as a centralized metadata repository to integrate with governmental databases for purposes of normalizing data governance across a large civilian federal agency.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MarkLogic is best utilized by a team that is knowledgeable in XML / XQuery technologies. Despite their inroads in JSON and REST, the learning curve for people without significant XML experience is quite steep. However, if you have invested in XML / XPath / XQuery / XSLT knowledge, then you can be up and running in MarkLogic very quickly. MarkLogic is a great alternative to non ACID compliant distributed databases like DynamoDB / Cassandra / MongoDB. The enterprise version is pricey, although for personal projects, education and non-profit uses they do offer substantial discounts and the community edition still supports the important NoSQL and ACID features.
Powerful document repository
What do you like best about the product?
Native XML interface and support for XML Query and Javascript. High quality XML Query documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Adding indexes can be very time consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Document storage and search. Because MarkLogic is a document database, it is well suited to our content, which consists of billions of legal documents.

What do you like best about the product?
Marklogic is the only Data Base that is both operational/transaccional and data store.
NoSQL databases have a long way to go.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I don't like, but they can have a better marketing approach.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing the information properly
What MongoDB should have been
What do you like best about the product?
MarkLogic has the best features of a document-based database - convenience, concision, composability - with enterprise features that real businesses - professional grade support, ACID compliance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Document-based databases will always struggle to compete with the queryability and stability of traditional RDBMSes. As it turns out, SQL is a tough query language to compete with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MarkLogic is a really great way to build stable prototypes where you don't what the schema of your data will end up looking like. This is how I've used in the past.
Searching and Serving up millions of pages of content in 117 different languages and dialects.
What do you like best about the product?
We have millions of pages of content in 117 different languages and we use MarkLogic to ingest, enrich, search and retrieve content and data in XML, HTML and JSON formats.
We have been able to cut our website development times in half to one tenth the typical development time of typical three tier architectures because of the content specific languages, tooling and tight integration we are able to achieve using MarkLogic.
The number of people required to administer and maintain our MarkLogic databases is a small fraction of what we would employ for relational databases or other no-SQL offerings.
MarkLogic was built from the ground up to store, search and enrich large volumes of content in a variety of languages. It is ACID compliant. In fact, it is the only noSQL offering that is ACID compliant.
We currently run MarkLogic both on premise and in the cloud. We used both physical hardware and VMs in clusters so that we can bring up instances to scale for expected increases in traffic.
We are able to search, combine and serve up content on the fly for 190 different websites ... and growing.

What do you dislike about the product?
Ingestion from a relational database can be difficult. Would like ability to ETL content into MarkLogic and out of MarkLogic.
Current offering of SQL is limited. This is slated to be fixed in next version.
The power and flexibility of the XQuery language to write websites and search content is phenomenal. But it is difficult to find developers willing to commit to learning a language they have heard very little about. Those that do can typically be productive in under 2 weeks but many developers have a mental block in this regard. MarkLogic has added JavaScript as a development language to over come this roadblock but JavaScript lacks the much of the power of the XQuery language.

We are a world-wide church with over 15 million members. We serve up millions of pages of content daily in 117 different languages, and our list of languages is growing monthly.
We were able to build a platform on top of MarkLogic for our flagship websites and then extend their capabilities for multimedia and dynamic content. We can query and combine various content to build pages in milliseconds and we have built webservices that allow users to markup and highlight content and persist their annotations indefinitely.
Some of our websites that currently use our MarkLogic platform are:
