Cons
"The only thing is the lack of a GUI application. There was a time when we needed to resolve an issue in production. If we had a GUI, it would have been easier.""I would prefer it if there was more information available about Redis. That would make it easier for new beginners. Currently, there is a lack of resources.""There is a lack of documentation on the scalability of the solution.""It's actually quite expensive.""The initial setup took some time as our technical team needed to familiarize themselves with Redis.""Sometimes, we use Redis as a cluster, and the clusters can sometimes suffer some issues and bring some downtime to your application.""In future releases, I would like Redis to provide its users with an option like schema validation. Currently, the solution lacks to offer such functionality.""The development of clusters could improve. Additionally, it would be helpful if it was integrated with Amazon AWS or Google Cloud."

More Redis Cons →

"The fact that a single queue can't be distributed across multiple instances/nodes is a major disadvantage.""VMware RabbitMQ needs to create a new queue system.""The product is pretty hard to configure.""Extra filters would be helpful.""They should add more analytics. Their documentation could also be improved so that I don't have to bother my co-workers and tech support so often.""RabbitMQ is clearly better supported on Linux than it is on Windows. There are idiosyncrasies in the Windows version that are not there on Linux.""When you have complex tasks, RabbitMQ is hard to use.""The product has to improve the crisis management, especially in memory issues."
