Its very much easy to work with NoSQL databases, and CouuchDB worth the work

  • July 07, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
First of all CouchDB is a NoSQL database, since I am a full stack developer I have worked with SQL and NoSQL databases what make me more comfortable and more easier to manage feeling is always can be get via NoSQL database. thats the best part in CouchDB and couchDB is offline friendly when we compare this with other competitor NoSLQ databases as per my experience and knowledge Google firebase also provide this feature in a different way. but when it comes to deployment we relay on a different server but in CouchDB its not like that we can deploy it in our own server! and last but not least the cost is lower than Firebase and it's a open source project by Apache so even I can be a part of it.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I felt as a drawback or a disadvantage is its basically do not have a built in full stack search and since its a JSON typed single node might be the load is pretty high.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Couch DB makes the offline rendering more easier and more convenient, I can store my data in my own server.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I have went through the recent releases and updated I have got to know that we can even run SQL queries in couchDB and there are some limitations also I would recommend to fill those limitations with more features.

CouchDB :Quick documented database management system

  • July 06, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Light weight NoSql data store very easy to install and can host on own server.

Save data in document based on JSON structures and accessing JSON is programmatically easy to parse and therefore makes it fast to query and view.

Additional drivers are no need to work with CouchDB. The Rest API is enough to read data.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not widely used or if it is, not a lot of people are admitting to it! This may be a concern if you are looking for people that have CouchDB experience to work on your project.

Documentation is always helpful but it took time to understand how indexing and views worked.

CouchDB software adapters are limited so mainly have a couch-rest library for rails app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using CouchDB as the main NoSQL information database server for our product, a globally used network testing and security product. CouchDB helps us save and access thousands of documents of crucial information representing the data points and meta data of the product activities.

CouchDB : Relaxed or Ruffled ? A developer's take on CouchDB

  • July 04, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Best for offline usage.
Replication.
If the availability of data is the main motivation than consistency. Content-based sites where you want to show movies, music, images and their metadata. Where the transaction is not important.

The replication happens from higher revision id documents to lower revision Id Documents. A simple and effective way to manage.
What do you dislike about the product?
The conflict resolution of documents.
Very slow in querying large data sets.
Not suitable for payment and analytics operation. The whole replication process stops when there is a single conflict in the document.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Availability of data to users. Whatever the situation technically user should always able to see information onscreen. Availability takes precedence over consistency.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Choose if you are looking for availability over the consistency of data.

CouchDB

  • July 02, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
CouchDB is schema-free, support easy replication, have simple API, eventually consistent, and can handle huge amounts of data (big data). The architectural design of CouchDB makes it extremely adaptable when partitioning databases and scaling data onto multiple nodes. CouchDB supports both horizontal partitioning and replication to create an easily managed solution for balancing both read and write loads during a database deployment.
What do you dislike about the product?
In-place updates require server-side logic (update handlers).
Temporary views on large datasets are very slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy replication of a database across multiple server instances.

Optimum solution for highly designed applications

  • June 29, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to attain solutions at ground level. We analyzed various NoSQL solutions for our project and finalizd CouchDB as Persistancy. That made us the finest solution for our project owned. CouchDB offered to easy integration with web services and connection pools. One important aspect we liked more is its GUI and their capabilities. The awesome GUI gives more enhanced accessbility from beginners to professionals. CouchDB logging system is giving a way to easy the process of error handlings and runtime blockers. It is a handy to figure out production and live issues on products. Another kudos goes to CouchDB documentations. The structured documents give a clear understanding of the idea and solutions CouchDB matters. That helped us to grip the soultion with our implementation. CouchDB's replication handlers play a vital feature of solution. When we approached the soultion with our implementation, we have not faced any hinderance with services. Obvious the CouchDB's querying systems sense a much plain keywords and meaningful. This makes a readable plain complex query to attain different set of models and data feeds. More over CouchDB is a proving solution as an application package and delights developers to stick with their services than inner complexities.
What do you dislike about the product?
More discussions would like to happen at public forum.
Reach more online platforms.
Annouce more bounty program in online portals.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scaling with pool connections. It is really helped us to attain the services at least time on data connections pool than various other NoSQL products.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Awesome product for highly designed solutions, easy approach

Fine product for professionals

Well structured and detailed documentation

Document Based Data Handling in OpenSRP by CouchDB

  • June 28, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
CouchDB is one of the best document based data handling platform which is most like me its easy handling mechanism, Map-Reduce implementation, ORM tool Ektorp, Hibernate OMG. Another interesting feature is to manipulate data in browser without using any third party graphical UI.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have faced in difficulties to handle complex queries. It is not so easy to make search api using relational document like full-text search etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have worked in a platform like ODK, OpenSRP etc. to store data from survey report. It was quite impossible to create dynamic table creation from traditional database based on random number of questions/queries. CouchDB was the blessed on me to handle such kind of complex survey based applications. OpenSRP is a open source platform for front-line health worker donated by WHO. This application is widely used in various Governments over world and NGOs. The users of the application are Kenya, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Indonesia, India, John Hopkins University, Save the Children etc.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
CouchDB has some fantastic features to handle document based data. Now it has also integrated in Hibernate OMG. I have opened a page in facebook and I am the admin of the page. Soon, I will promote the page. Please join in my page https://www.facebook.com/CouchDB/

CouchDB is free and open source, a marvel

  • June 24, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
CouchDB is the easiest database manager to install of all the ones I've tried. In addition, maintenance is very easy. On the other hand, it scales the documents very well. It has a replication protocol that is very useful for creating servers.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much online documentation about this database manager and the learning curve is usually a bit slow because despite not being a complex software, learning to use the interface requires some time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In CouchDB we store information about employees, customers, invoices, support tickets, among other things. This manager keeps all the data organized and allows us to view them in a web page with JSON.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CouchDB is solid and the only thing we have invested is time to learn how to use it so that we can exploit all its characteristics. We believe that it is an important technology in our business. I recommend it.

What do you like best about the product?
shared capabilities,
sync filter is amazing.
map reduce indexing
easy deployment, ready setup for windows, Mac -- this what i use..
fuxton replication task make life easy to transfer data from server to another.
pouchdb integration for offline web users..
Contributors are very collaborative in discussions to give you the best solution IF EXIST and work around if not.
Really there is many others lovely feature..
What do you dislike about the product?
-performance is disaster. they cant or to be accurate its an open source and these people don't get paid for there work,, i saw tens or issues with feature request asking for collections to sort there data or enhancement for Indexing; that a New index consume hours to be build maybe days for big data, no strait solutions for Indexing problem all are inefficient work arounds which is not suitable in real world.. and this dive the product far away from nosql flexibility... why a developer will switch for a product will help me in some scenario and kill my app on other standard one's.
-security is the worst, we are living in hackable world and we cant set any read security permissions.. so if we set another layer to do so, this will drop the sync feature, then we don't need couchDB for anything expect its noSQL db..
-update function doesn't allow to to interact with other doc.
-no transaction.
- documentation need enhancement for quick learning.. its took me a while to mention that they have view index and map reduce index..
and also there is a big question mark for the future of this product!! there is no road map.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
building a quick portal with pouchdb... to enable offline and real time sync...
Recommendations to others considering the product:
really only recommended for small web app that doesn't require high level of security,
