Sentiment score

Architecte Cloud at Visiativ SA
Overall, on a scale of one to ten, I would rate MongoDB an eight; it's mostly because we're still running a monolithic environment on old hardware, so there are some limitations with read-write access.
General Manager at Lytwave

Room For Improvement

MongoDB Enterprise Advanced needs better security, integration, documentation, and scalability, while addressing stability, transactions, and TypeScript support issues.
OpenText Analytics Database needs better workload management, documentation, SQL optimization, cloud support, machine learning, and cost efficiency.
We have not contracted the security options in our contract because they're too expensive; thus, we implement just encrypted databases and not the security pack.
Architecte Cloud at Visiativ SA
While solutions for other databases like SQL or PostgreSQL already exist, MongoDB requires additional integrations for developing AI solutions.
Head Of Analytics at Mjunction Services
From the AWS standpoint, if robust integration and data warehouse integration specific tools are added in the advanced suite, that would definitely be helpful.
Co-Founder at Vsigma IT Labs Pvt Ltd
 

Setup Cost

MongoDB Enterprise Advanced pricing varies by size, with free Community Edition and budget-friendly cloud options like MongoDB Atlas.
OpenText Analytics Database offers flexible pricing based on storage, with competitive costs, community edition, and negotiable licensing options.
We have to pay approximately 2,000 euros per month for MongoDB.
Architecte Cloud at Visiativ SA
We use the free version of MongoDB, so there are no licensing costs.
Head Of Analytics at Mjunction Services
For a small company, the cost of MongoDB Enterprise Advanced is reasonable, but for heavy data usage, we see a little bit of cost pressure but it's acceptable.

Valuable Features

MongoDB Enterprise Advanced excels in scalability, flexibility, NoSQL capabilities, fast performance, and seamless integration, enhancing data management efficiency.
OpenText Analytics Database offers rapid data processing, scalability, ease of use, and cost efficiency with advanced analytics capabilities.
When the database receives numerous requests, it has to perform. Those threshold limits we come to know, and then automatically these memory enhancement advanced features are configured so that during high demand periods, memory automatically increases to cater to the incoming advanced requests and volume of requests.
Co-Founder at Vsigma IT Labs Pvt Ltd
It offers flexibility in schema adaptation, allowing us to change the schema and add new data points.
Head Of Analytics at Mjunction Services
MongoDB has definitely helped us improve our network monitoring and reporting dashboard.

Architecte Cloud at Visiativ SA
Offers reliable engine for legacy needs but requires enhanced cost management and AI features
While MongoDB is a good product, it is also an expensive product for support, and its scalability is acceptable, but the big problem with MongoDB is the cost. For security in MongoDB, we work with encrypted databases by default, but we have not contracted the security options in our contract because it is too expensive, so we only implement encrypted databases without the security pack, which is very expensive for us; in security, we are at the first steps, just using encrypted databases. I think additional features needed in MongoDB include perhaps vector databases, as I think they are not supported right now.
