Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"SAP SQL Anywhere is very helpful.""We've found the solution very reliable overall. It's very fast.""The auto-backup replication is a perfect feature. That is the feature I liked the most.""It works well in general.""The most valuable features of SAP SQL Anywhere are the ease of use and the user interface is intuitive."

More SAP SQL Anywhere Pros →

"The most valuable feature is the ability to create pipelines, streamline and extract data from the pipelines.""The product's initial setup phase was pretty straightforward, with no complex processes.""The paramount advantage is the exceptional speed.""MemSQL supports the MySQL protocol, and many functions are similar, so the learning curve is very short.""The ability to store data in memory is a standout feature, enhanced by robust failover mechanisms.""It's a distributed relational database, so it does not have a single server, it has multiple servers. Its architecture itself is fast because it has multiple nodes to distribute the workload and process large amounts of data.""The product can automatically reinstall and reconfigure in case of a shutdown."

Cons
"The interface is not easy in comparison to the SQL Server. It could be more user-friendly.""It is not as secure as it could be.""We have had some stability issues with SAP SQL Anywhere, but I am not sure if it is an application or network issue. We sometimes have a large amount of data being queried and it cannot handle it.""SAP SQL Anywhere needs to incorporate functionalities like SAP S/4HANA.""A problem we are experiencing now is when doing a backup in SQL 2012 and 14."

More SAP SQL Anywhere Cons →

"For new customers, it's very tough to start. Their documentation isn't organized, and there's no online training available. SingleStore is working on it, but that's a major drawback.""Poor key distribution can significantly impact performance, requiring a backward approach in design rather than adding tables incrementally.""We don't get good discounts in Pakistan.""Having the ability to migrate servers using a single command would be extremely beneficial.""It is not the optimal choice for direct data collection through queries, and it's more suited for aggregation tasks.""There should be more pipelines available because I think that if MemSQL can connect to other services, that would be great.""The product can be developed further to provide more appropriate output to users as it is one of the areas where there are shortcomings."
