Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The subset of SQL that my client is using is completely supported."
"The most valuable feature is that CockroachDB is a distributed database, which can deploy nodes running in different regions."
"CockroachDB is highly reliable."
"The best feature of CockroachDB is the ability to keep the nodes in different locations."
"The availability and the easy to use feature is the most valuable. The documentation is also good."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its resiliency features and the geo-partitioning capabilities."
"What I like best is its ability to solve data residency issues. The main advantage is auto geo partitioning, built into the product. This means we don't have to spin up separate servers in each region, which would be much more costly."
"The product has valuable security features."
"The most valuable feature is compatibility with the Oracle database."
"Tibero is a relational database management system, which supports disaster recovery, active cluster, active storage, etc."
"Tibero is very easy to setup and maintain."
"Tibero uses Hyper-Threading architecture, which is incredibly fast."
 

Cons

"The platform could be more extensible."
"I would like CockroachDB to have more compatibility with PostgreSQL, especially with the connection string and technical integrations."
"The initial setup and pricing could be improved."
"The product must improve its disaster recovery features."
"CockroachDB needs to improve store processes."
"We are looking for more features to support distributed high availability and geo-partitioning."
"Cockroach does not support all types of protocols. I need to improve it myself to support a CouchDB on my network."
"The closer they can make CockroachDB to being completely compatible with Postgres, the better. It's almost compatible, but not completely. If it was, it would be nice to just be able to use Postgres libraries without any fiddling."
"In PL/SQL code, there is a scope of improvement. We expect more PL/SQL packages should be included in the next release."
"The knowledge base is quite small and should be expanded."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform is affordable even for the enterprise version. It provides value for investment in terms of performance."
"I've used CockroachDB at a small scale on the free accounts because we are only testing."
"The solution's pricing is not cheap. However, the good thing is that customers are willing to pay for it if they want it."
"The pricing is good but can be made cheaper. I would rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"The product's price depends on the user's company and the contract model they enter into with CockroachDB. Depending on the contract model one enters into with CockroachDB, the product may or may not be expensive."
"The overall costs are very low compared to Oracle."
"The price of Tibero is cheaper than that of Oracle."
