Light and fast but not for everyone.

What do you like best about the product?
What seems most interesting to me is that it is a very compact database and it really works with limited resources. It is not difficult to install and it truly adapts to any device that needs it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Within what I consider it should process, it has its flaws since it is not as easy to work with as an SQL server or Toad itself. You really need to have a good grasp of the IT subject if you want to get involved with this manager. Additionally, the information is scarce when it comes to a query or some reference. Another problem I observed was that when dealing with large volumes of data, the database significantly loses its performance, and it has some issues with the timestamp data type, which the software we use requires.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solved storage problems with very old devices, I believe that in this aspect the way of working is worthwhile as it addresses a serious issue regarding old devices.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
gather as much information as possible about the possible installation scenarios and troubleshooting so that you have enough backup material

MariaDB review

  • January 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like MariaDB because the size of my databases is low and I can use it for mobile applications. It works very fine with mobile apps and I don’t have to store a huge data amount.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don’t like MariaDB because is hard to set up a database or a table and there is no documentation for it, I found only tutorials on YouTube. It’s not compatible with any sql tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used MariaDB to update our old databases. We got a new interface and new functions .We can run queries much faster and we solved the problem with the huge size of exported sql data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend you to use it only for mobile applications. It was built for mobile development.

MariaDB for me!!

What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that MariaDB is uses the same commands and syntax as MySql and is faster. The ease of use is awesome. There is no learning curve if you are coming from MySql or sqlite. The ability to migrate over from MySQL with ease was a major factor in switching. Everyone in my company that was able to use MySQL and SQLite are able to use MariaDB with no downtime in order to learn a new system.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not anything I have found that I dislike about MariaDB. It is very easy to use and lightening fast, MariaDB is also free.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving business problems with data storage and have realized the speed over other databases out there. The query speed is much faster than using MySQL. The best part is if your company is using MySQL or SQLite, it will be a seemless migration to MariaDB.

You will not be dissappointed
