Cons
"Integrating business intelligence or NLP solutions would help us save time and would prevent us from having to take a deep dive. Data problems seem to multiply on the system when you interact with it. Automation would save a lot of man-hours.""Sometimes, we face syntax issues with the solution.""They could include more advanced features like clustering and replication in the Oracle databases.""The technical support is in need of improvement.""There could be more courses where the people could learn more easily how to use the tool.""The solution should offer memory management.""Sometimes MySQL does upgrades on the server. When we are still using the old server and when they integrate the upgrade, they don't carry along some of the old syntaxes. The versions don't sync.""The tool’s stability must be improved."
