Wish this was around 20 years ago! ACID compliant.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be simple but gets complex quite quickly as you start using Geolocation features, i guess there is a steep learning curve but worth it to master the advanced features.

Distributed data that has all the bells and whistles.
Exceeds expectations

Best documentation from CockroachDB helps adoption in a faster manner and DB works exceedingly better than expected. Postgres compatibility is really done in such a great manner that migrating from Postgres to CockroachDB was pretty easy than expected.
What do you dislike about the product?
None as of now. My application needs do not get me into a state where I feel like i dislike to not have any needed feature in CockroachDB.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My application was initially developed with Postgres and we decided to shift to CockroachDB for its Automated scaling, failover and repair feature and its compatibility with postgres so that our migration would be easier. It exactly solved our needs.

Ease of setup and use with powerful global delivery of data.
What do you like best about the product?
The initial setup, how straight forward it is to get started with the globally distributed data store. Beats everything I have tried so far from Oracle to Cassandra DB!

Missing capabilities to create SQL functions. They a very handy to manage complex relationships or to manipulate large data sets - instead of having to pull them in the application layer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Serving customer data, all local to them across the globe. Helped us achieve simplify the architecture, quick adoption of a truly globally distributed database right from PoC to MVP to now under development for production.
Basic Cockroach DB usage to create a scalable DB in a few minutes
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful is how easy you can setup a cockroach DB with a few steps. Also their support can be absolutely helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
An upside is that some of their features are only in enterprise edition.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Strongly-consistent ACID transactions is a big feature for a distributed SQL, such as cockroach DB. You also do not need to care about how much you may need to scale your app in the future. The DB can handle this for sure
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The benefits are many. Try to use it and you'll probably earn from it.
A SQL Database That Actually Scales
What do you like best about the product?
CockroachDB is an innovation solution to easily scaling our SQL database and the fact that scaling works out of the box is a huge advantage to our team. Some of the advice features, such as managing data locality, are also very convenient and have saved our team many, many hours of work by not having to implement these features ourselves.
What do you dislike about the product?
Depending on what your requirements are, you may find this solution much slower than a traditional database solution. Latency can be an issue and some SQL queries are not sufficiently optimized by the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CockroachDB allows us to a SQL interface database for our web app that is extremely easy to scale. The fact that we can host is across cloud providers and utilize CockroachDB themselves for managing our database has resulted is much simpler database management.
