Easy to setup and integrate
What do you like best about the product?
Instructions to setup ArangoDB Community (using docker) are clear. Integration with existing project is smooth
What do you dislike about the product?
Setting up ArangoDB to perform semantic search on a specific node property looks complicated. One needs to define a metric function (e.g., cosine similarity). Would be nice to have a wrapper that does this
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing state machine as a Graph
Great graph database and awesome alternative for SQL
What do you like best about the product?
I really really enjoy AQL way to perform queries. It's as straightfoward as a JS script, very easy for devs to ramp up, easier to perform joins and complex operations!
What do you dislike about the product?
It could be somehow more intuitive to perform views/materialized views.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly all of our transactional operations are held using ArangoDB
a perfect match for our modelling use case, complete db solution with unique properties
What do you like best about the product?
Unique and invaluable multi-model database where everything is accessed using one simple query language.
No more syncing with relational dbs when you need those capabilities.
Very friendly GUI with easy install and upgrade procedures that can be very simple to maintain. The GUI allows data exploration and analysis as well as query debugging in-place.
Very humble resource footprint, it is a 300MB C++ "rocket".
Excellent performance with many ways to improve and control it.
The Arango Team are all good people and are nice to meet and work with, they all are "clued in" and you do not get that offshore support feeling.

What do you dislike about the product?
Clustering stability, management and performance (scaling) may need some work.
Database-side triggers were promised for years but not there.
Locking mechanics may be further improved (and I see they are).
Some recent GUI changes are not always for the better.
Enterprise Support could be more responsive to medium and low priority cases (should take [much] less than a year, SLA need more enforcement)

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is "The Tool" that allowed us to finally solve the Problem that Telco Industry could not solve for the 40 years of computer use -
Creating and Maintaining a Dynamic, Programmatically Accessible Model of the whole Network Topology and State as one Unified Landscape, without Boundaries and Visibility Limits,
open for traversal and analysis by all an any internal teams, for use cases of failure analysis, resource state detection, service integrinty (what-if) and change management in the Network Assurance usage patterns.

ArangoDB is flexible but still not so fast on complex tasks.
What do you like best about the product?
- Very flexible schema
- Support types of joining
- Integrated web UI is useful
- ArangoSearch View is easy to use and helpful in retrieving data from multiple collections, including exact and fuzzy searching

What do you dislike about the product?
- Low performance on complex aggregations even when indexing is applied, especially on the big edge collections
- Documents do not describe how the index works clearly
- Graph traversal is not fast enough at times when filtering on edges. I needed to use 2 for loops (traverse 2 times) instead of multi-level traversing for better performance.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ArangoDB helped us to organize data pretty efficiently by providing multiple data models (especially the graph model) and an integrated search engine.
Cyber Threats data looks intuitive when being stored in ArangoDB

For DBAs it is easy to manage
What do you like best about the product?
From a DBA perspective, ArangoDB is easy to install, update and manage. We are using the ArangoDB enterprise edition on Linux RedHat. For install and update we are using the rpm pakages.
The user friendly Customer Support responds quickly and helpfully. Hot-Backups uses hardlinks and can be done very fast.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is no point-in-time backup/restore solution available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were looking for a fast and lean NoSQL database.
There is nothing like it! Scalable Graphs, Documents & Open Source
What do you like best about the product?
I found ArangoDB as I was looking for a graph database that was ready for an enterprise content managment system that could act as a general purpose datastore, that didn't break the bank, and had good reliability. Also important was a managed hosting support for my enterprise client.
The alternatives neo4j quoted me a ridiculous ~$70k per year, with no garuntee that their software would work if they ever went out of buisness which seemed likely with that price point. Other graph solutions werent really scalable or didn't have as useful of a datamodel.
Three years after writing my application for arangodb I am extremely happy with this choice and continue to find new ways to organize information either in real-world messy graphs or in highly scalable key-value stores.
The nice for engineers about using arango is that since the project is open source you can create issues on their database repo and talk with real engineers about solutions, or feature requests to further refine the product rather than some know-nothing sales person.

What do you dislike about the product?
- I have found one or two troublesome phenomenon with the interplay between supported APIs. For instance one api doesn't have the ability to delete edges / nodes in AQL as here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51650374/why-vertex-removing-request-doesnt-remove-linked-edge-with-aql-in-arangodb
- Not much python support. I am using `arangoorm` which is very nice but community supported. Please make this an official feature! I also would find more use with a python `foxx` like server but I understand if thats not reasonable.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a robust datamodel that avoided static schema problems with databases like postgres
Arangodb & DigSecurity
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of integration, platform operational management
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing specifc at the moment, the platform is working graet
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it provides the best graph database in the market, as of today
Great product
What do you like best about the product?
The option to manage graph and collections in the same DB
What do you dislike about the product?
Their UI is not stable.
They can improve the graph visibily. For example if I want to see the node data, I need to "Edit" the node instead of just hover it

Managing graph and collection use cases in same DB
Surprisingly versatile
What do you like best about the product?
When comparing ArangoDB to other vendors in the space (including ones with large Market Caps) Arango comes out as a better product with better features. Some of the built in features of AQL make it a superior product with other players in the space.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a smaller player in the space, it is more difficult to convince upper management to go with Arango instead of other vendors (they perceive as being better than Arango) in the space.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The graphing features in Arango make it the best choice for our product.
Best all purpose database so far
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is very versatile with its multi model approach, you have the power of document store with graph search, whch essentially allows you to do whatever you do with both document stores and with SQL databases, plus much more thanks to the graph traversal. The AQL language is very intuitive and so quick to learn. Speed is great too. It is easy to use for prototyping and it porvides you with good devops tool for cluster installation on kubernetes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think FOXX services are not the best approach for microservices, from a software architecture standpoint. Although documentation is generlaly good, I found that node.js documentation is a bit lacking behind
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to disssect complex documents, and find connectins between parts of documents, arangoDB allows me to do that plus whatever else a standard applictaion does, like CRUD operations, all in one database engine.
