Not even close to MongoDB
What do you like best about the product?
Apache has good ideas, most of them are very useful. CouchDB is one of those good ideas, but I wouldn't classify it as useful. It's good to have a company as Apache supporting the tool, I think it has a great future, but we still haven't found it's value.
What do you dislike about the product?
It resolves a non-existent problem. Why would I use CouchDB and not MongoDB or ElasticSearch? It's still not clear to me. I also found the documentation extremely boring and old school and the books I found do not seem interesting.
The community is very small, I had trouble finding answers to basic questions I had during the time I was trying it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm always looking for good database tools for various projects and modules. I currently use MySQL, MongoDB, RedShift and ElasticSearch. I considered CouchDB but ended up discarding it since I didn't think it adds anything new. So, my business problems were not solved.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you find it useful, good for you. I'd prefer MongoDB and ElasticSearch.

CouchDB is good noSQL database

Use CouchDB is a sensation of freedom from tables or SQL rules. Your app will be able to be more flexible

CouchDB use your all disk if you do not be careful. You index system could be dangerous and freeze you system.

With CouchDB I create an app and I have a great performance. But I had to learn advanced points to gain some disk space

CouchDB for analytics on a large distributed video streaming service
What do you like best about the product?
CouchDB is a great document NoSQL datastore with excellent data aggregation capabilities. I have used it for append-only data (analytics) on a distributed video streaming service hosted on the cloud. It is very simple yet powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Like any other document based datastore, it does not work well with relational data. It is best used for data that is loosely coupled and works well with append-only data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used CouchDB to simplify analytics collection and aggregation for a video streaming service. It enabled on-demand availability of analytics data instead of the previous batch processed aggregation implemented on a relational database.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Play around with the aggregations and the distributed nature. This is extremely useful and can lead to some creative solutions to a lot of problems.
