I hope I could help You :)

  • January 12, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity (Portability, Management) and Efficacy. I like also compliance of ASNI standards for SQL. It is easy to get a snapshot, just stop database engine, copy a file and start database service one again. Managment is as simple as it could be. There is one tool for user management, other one to backup and restore a database. It is very flexible, powerful database engine and it doesn't use much of system resources. I hope You take this into consideration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Efficacy problem with large volume of data (above 3-4GB), poor recoverability after database corruption. I don't like the archives incompatibilities between 2.x and 3.x branches. I also dislike a lack of window function in 2.x version. I would be great if there is official database explorer like SSMS or SQL Developer. I also feel lack of server linking technology to connect multiple cross-platform database to firebird.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Firebird mainly as database behind selling and storage system for Pharmacies. The second possible database engine for this application is Oracle but I prefer using Firebird. I also write SQL statements for data extraction from OLTP Pharmacy's databases.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great on premises database for all of propose if only You don't need to store more than a couple of GB per one datafile. I works with many RMBDSes but I belive that Firebird is unique and worth of using in every inch. I advise You to give a chance to Firebird becuase if You start use it, You would love it :)

Firebird good free database for small and medium business

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Multi-user database access, a lot of developer tools to help job, support to transactions, good security.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's no embedded version for Android in the version I've worked.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Some my customers want to use a good database but don't want pay for this. So I've tested free options like MySQL, Postgre and Firebird and in the end Firebird fit best because is easy to managed and we can moved database file easier than Postgres for example. For my kind of customers is very useful this feature.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you looking a lightweight database but with complete tool I must recommend Firebird.
