MongoDB Atlas
What do you like best about the product?
The speed in which one can set up a scalable database environment and automate many tasks that normally require several steps to accomplish. The task of scaling one's environment is greatly simplified and can often be upgraded and/or downgraded to fit a particular use case with no downtime.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some things, like auditing and data encryption are not yet implemented inside Atlas.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Atlas for prototyping and R&D work and have been able to quickly develop in a much more real world environment than I would otherwise be able to.
Flexible & Powerful, MongoDB is Web Scale... ;-)
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to implement, but also full featured and capable of Enterprise scaling and security when going to Production. The platform is constantly improving and adding value and features. The user community is very helpful and willing to lend a hand with new chums. For Minimum Viable Product development, mongoDB is a great way to get a database platform up and running that can grow and scale as your product matures, and there is a large curve under which you can operate on the free community edition before having to license enterprise features. It also is quickly and easily deployable to a localhost setup in multiple instances for testing and development.
What do you dislike about the product?
While there are robust security features available, many of them are only in the paid "Enterprise Advanced" version for on-premise implementation, such as LDAP, Kerberos, AD Integration, etc. Using the MongoDB Atlas DBaaS platform will give you the ability to implement these features on a scalable sizing basis, but you are locked into the cloud at this point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We love the ability to take disparate formats of incoming data (CSV, XML, JSON, Excel, Tab-Separated, etc.) and drop them into unstructured collections for processing by the application layer without having to massage them into a standard schema for import.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take advantage of the MongoDB University free courses for Developers and DBAs available on their website. You will learn a great deal about the product and ways to leverage it in your environment, and also prepare for their certification exams.
MongoDB - powerful and reliable
What do you like best about the product?
I like the easy setup and the awsome performance of the database. You can easily setup a cluster environment in minutes on a development machine. The document-structure and schemaless design makes you think different, but more realistic (you need not hassle around with plenty of tables only to get your simple business model).
The Atlas-Cloud-Service is great for production, where you can easily "outsource" the database-administration... but you keep full control over your database-environment.

What do you dislike about the product?
Not really dislike, but the MongoDB queries needs to get used to;
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The benefit for me as a developer is, that I can concentrate on business feature development and that the database completely fit to Domain driven design. It makes things easy, and that is the main benefit.
MongoDB has a very good performance with basic setup, and it is no problem to handle multi-millions of dicuments. And you have additional features to optimize (replica-sets, sharding and so on), so MongoDB scales very good.
Finally, it fits into plain JavaEE development (you don't need JPA, you can use the plain JavaDriver or Morphia as an object-mapper).

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out and register to the MongoDB-university with free onine courses, which gives you a good starting and introduction to the product and its usage. Further, read the awsome online-documentation, which comprises many tutorials.
