Find out what your peers are saying about MongoDB, Couchbase, InfluxData and others in NoSQL Databases."Creates the ability to visualize outputs."
"As a graph database, I am surprised at their performance and response time."
"Enables people to understand what the business problem is and how the technology helps."
"The most valuable feature is easy installation. It was very easy to install."
"They have improved the UI and ease of accessing the database and server which is good. You can load it up and start using it from the very minute it is implemented."
"I find query optimization to be highly valuable for data management. Additionally, drag-and-drop query creation greatly facilitates data management tasks."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"SQL is stable."
"The stability is fine, especially if you're hosting it on AWS or Azure. You can get up to 99.99% stability on AWS."
"SQL Server is quite user-friendly. I have experience with Oracle and PostgreSQL, so out of three, I like SQL Server a lot."
"The replication feature, user interface, reporting services, and notification services are really good. They are providing SQL profiler and SQLCMD as their integrated software, so we don't find it difficult to integrate any of our third-party applications with MS SQL because all of them support MS SQL very clearly."
"There are concerns about performance and whether the tool can necessarily scale to provide the solution."
"So far, we have not had any issues and are happy with the product in general."
"The configuration process can be a little complex."
"The tool's support needs to be improved."
"SQL Server could integrate better with other platforms."
"Price could be cheaper, and access to reporting tools should be better."
"We pay a license fee, it could always be cheaper."
"The solution needs to be more secure. It's lacking, compared to, for example, Oracle."
"Scalability is an area that needs improvement, and the deployment is difficult, which why I'm looking for an appliance to deploy it in a much more scalable way."
"Analysis services have a lot of room for improvement. Basically, manageability on the available tools. They should have improved them already. They are not very efficient. My main headache is with the analysis service, and it would be really good if Microsoft developed some additional tools that are more user-friendly to manage the analysis. This is both from the perspective of management, users' roles, and performance analysis. My main wish for SQL Server would be that management tools for analysis services grow and mature a bit."
