The best NoSQL DB I've been able to work on

  • June 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I personally enjoy the flexibility of the schemaless document store combined with the rich query language
What do you dislike about the product?
The 16MB document size, though I understand why, and gridfs is always an option, is slows things down.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real time data, which is highly available, and with election's worth of traffic spikes possible
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dive into it, and do not be afraid of the lack of SQL. Things get better once you leave that realm of thinking.

    Research

I use MongoDB to analyze data that my company has only used for processing in the past.

  • June 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplicity of use through applications like Compass and Studio 3T, and the ability to access and manipulate data that SQL based systems cannot do well.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a steep learning curve on certain functionalities ($facet) and the use of other functions ($group and $count) are so slow within MongoDB's environment as to make them problematic for scaling.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are in the exploratory phase of figuring out ways to productise the data that we have been accruing on our industry over a long period of time.

A powerful and simple data store.

  • June 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really like writing aggregation queries. The performance of these queries combined with the rich set of operations makes producing data sets that give clarity to our data a easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the arrayFilter update syntax. I am really glad it exists now, but I do not find the syntax very intuitive. This is my memory of it, at least, that the use of the variable comes before the definition of it, which feels a little backward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
High availability. The replica sets are a cinch to setup and have provided our customers with access to their data when hardware issues invariably drop up in the field.
