Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product enables the users to query results faster."
"It can handle a lot of files quickly."
"MongoDB is scalable and stable. The initial setup is very easy, and deployment and maintenance can be done by one person."
"It is very easy to create a MongoDB cluster. You can deploy three nodes in one hour. You can do small configurations to enable routing. It is easy to implement."
"It is easy to use."
"The solution's most important aspect is its seamless database."
"Sharding is an excellent feature of MongoDB."
"MongoDB stores the JSON data, and it's easy for me to understand because I'm a JavaScript Developer."
"MongoDB has a simple data-loading interface."
 

Cons

"The product should enable users to import data from various databases."
"MongoDB should better support small and medium companies. There are a lot of clients out there that are interested, however, they need something lighter and less complex and something not so expensive upfront."
"We'd like technical support to respond faster to queries."
"It would be good to have scalability for clusters. For example, if we have three clusters, we should be able to increase to five clusters if required. I am not sure if such a feature is currently there. I hope there is good documentation for this."
"I suppose it could be a little more secure."
"The solution should more easily integrate with custom code."
"The solution could have more integration."
"MongoDB should not be used for reporting, analytics, or number-crunching tasks."
"The scalability of the product is acceptable, but with MongoDB, the big problem is the cost."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not expensive."
"MongoDB is a bit expensive compared to its competitors."
"It is rather expensive."
"MongoDB's pricing is reasonable."
"You only have to pay for the paid version, not the open-source version."
"The solution is open source, so it is free."
"There is an enterprise license and it could be cheaper. We are using the free open source version."
"I currently use the solution's community edition which is free."
"I only used the open-source version."
