MarkLogic Reviews

In my earliest use cases, MarkLogic was used for XML-based operations. I worked a lot in the publishing industry.

The solution can be deployed on-premise and on the cloud.

At the American Psychological Association when we used the search in MarkLogic it was what interested me the most because it was complete.

MarkLogic's greatest asset is its strong engineering foundation. It was specifically designed with search capabilities in mind, and the developers placed a great emphasis on ensuring the quality of the indexing and all subsequent layers that were added.

The solution has been good at providing the updates that were what we were hoping for. They frequently update the solution.

One of the most common requests is to improve the user interface of the database. While it is primarily a database, there are other databases available that offer more user-friendly interfaces. The UI is good for developers but not for regular users. More visuals would be beneficial.

I have been using MarkLogic for approximately 15 years.

MarkLogic is stable, I have not had any issues.

The scalability of MarkLogic is good.

I rate the scalability of MarkLogic a ten out of ten.

The support is high quality. The strongest point of the support is their engineers.

I have used Symantec and RDS.

The initial setup of MarkLogic can be difficult depending on the environment. For example, having to handle government applications, VPNs and high-level security can add to the complexity of the implementation. The MarkLogic server installation is straightforward.

I have seen an ROI by using the solution.

MarkLogic is a pricey option, but there are some advantages to its pricing structure. For medium-sized clients or departments within larger companies, it is possible to obtain a license for one or two nodes for less than a hundred thousand dollars. Additionally, if you only need to deploy a single node, you can do so for under fifty thousand dollars. This is in contrast to other high-quality software options that are only accessible to larger businesses, where the starting price can be upwards of two hundred thousand dollars.

I rate the price of MarkLogic a nine out of ten.

There is version 11 that I have not used.

I would recommend that others consider participating in MarkLogic's training program. While it is excellent software, it is also quite complex in terms of its capabilities. By participating in their training program, you can gain a better understanding of the best practices for using the software to its fullest potential.

I rate MarkLogic a ten out of ten.

We are using the solution for source data to put into a database to ingest all the data. We are using it to convert everything into a standard format. We use it to run over the content to ensure everything is running properly. It's great for ingesting data and standardizing everything. 

At the code level, using the solution on elements or functions makes it easier to insert or manage data. There are lots of elements or functions that we can use to create and standardize data. It helps us to find specific data easily. It helps to have the raw data and files standardized.

Currently, we are working on medical policies, and we have to follow instructions for specific functions, and this makes it easier to ensure everything aligns. 

We're dealing with multiple types of data, and this solution helps to standardize it. Once items are in a standard format, we can validate them.

If there are errors or a title is missing, we can still find a way to check the information and make the necessary changes. 

If there are a lot of items missing, we can make out own rules. We can, for example, ensure that if a title is missing, we can put information in there manually if it is missing from the source material. The rules can show us if there are missing items, like titles, and we can add them in to ensure everything is filled and makes sense and there are no missing details. 

Over the last years, we've been working on the data side, and have found things are going better and faster. We like that we can use NoSQL with it. 

It is scalable. 

The solution is stable.

Techncial support is fine. 

The spreadsheet capabilities could be improved. We need to convert spreadsheets into an open XML format. We have to do a few levels of conversions before we convert the data into the information we require. It would be ideal if the process could be a bit more streamlined to simplify the process.

When we convert to XML, there's a lot of unnecessary data, and we have to manually clean up everything before we can really dig in. 

The solution is expensive. 

We've been using the solution for one year.

It is stable and reliable. That said, it can take some time to load the product. 

The solution is scalable. Users can expand the product. However, it depends on the server design. 

The solution's technical support is fine. We've reached out to them in the past.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. It's easy. 

We've witnessed a pretty good ROI. The investment has been worth it for us. 

It's a costly product. However, their reputation justifies the cost. It's a trusted product. 

I'm an end-user.

Many high-level companies are using the solution. It's a trusted product. The product offers very good technology, and the features have been quite useful.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. I'm quite happy with its capabilities. It's very innovative.
