MySQL Reviews

I do not recall which version I am using. 

Although we do not use it for the main core system, the solution acts as a database which is useful for login applications, data warehousing. 

The solution is so stable. I have encountered no problems. 

The solution could be more secure.

I have been using MySQL for a year. 

The solution is very stable. 

The solution is not scalable at present. 

I do not have experience with technical support. 

Previously, we used Microsoft database.

The solution is easy to install.

I cannot state how long implementation took. 

The solution does not come with a licensing fee. 

I do not know the number of users who are using the solution in my organization. 

I would absolutely recommend this solution to others. 

I rate MySQL as a seven out of ten. 

We are using this solution for database management.

One of the best features is this solution is easy to use.

The solution could improve by having better performance and security.

I have been using this solution for approximately five years.

The solution is relatively stable.

For what we have been using the solution for it is scalable. However, it could be more scalable.

We have a lot of customers using this solution with more projects coming up. We have overall approximately 500 users using this solution.

The technical support is very good and responsive.

The installation is straightforward. It can easily be installed onto a laptop or any computer.

I did the implementation myself.

There is not a license required for this solution.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate MySQL an eight out of ten.

I have used the solution for a database tied to application development.

There are some issues with compatibility with Java environments that need to be improved. When Oracle bought this solution there were some driver changes that caused some issues with operations.

I have been using the solution for approximately eight years.

There are approximately 300 users using the solution in my organization. 

The solution is a small application and is very easy to deploy.

There is a license for this solution. A lot of the time the solution gets bundled with other hardware or software purchases.

I have plans to continue using the solution in the future.

I rate MySQL a seven out of ten.

We store mostly the metadata-related information and that's our primary use case for MySQL, storing a transactional database. 

This is a good traditional database, it supports JSON and it is whatever you need for a simple solution. It fits well, is easy to use and provides good service.

I'd like to see some additional JSON query support in the solution. 

The stability is fine. 

The scalability of the solution is fine although we haven't tested it too much. 

There is no need to contact technical support. 

The initial setup is very easy, it's not a big installation and there's no effort required with maintenance-related issues because it's a whole product and is more stabilized. So I don't recall any issues and getting issues on the database side.

I would recommend this product if it suits your needs. 

I rate this solution an eight out of 10.

It is the database for a web application. I am using it for personal and official purposes.

It is easy to use.

It is not as powerful as SQL Server. It can be more powerful.

It is not scalable and has certain limitations, which is not the case with SQL Server.

I have been using this solution for a couple of years.

It is stable.

It is not scalable. We have around 10 to 15 web developers who are currently using it.

I have not interacted with them.

Its installation is not very complex. It takes two hours.

I installed it on my own. We have four or five people for deployment and maintenance.

For the on-premise version, no license is required.

We plan to keep using this solution. I would rate MySQL a seven out of ten.

It is deployed on local servers, and we are using version 8. The whole company uses our database. Our users don't communicate with the database directly. They use a web interface. All programs are deployed using MySQL. We have hundreds of thousands of users accessing MySQL via the website. Two of us manage the database, but it's enough for only one person to manage daily operations. 

As we are using the latest version of the database, it has many functions that have improved it. There are many new features in this version, and it is more powerful in what it can achieve.

MySQL has a lot of documentation, and bug fixing is better in the latest version.

We have been using MySQL for about 20 years.

It is very stable.

MySQL is scalable. We didn't scale it via the database tools provided but on the program side. However, it is easy to scale it using the functions provided with the product.

The support is fast and helps to find faster fixes to existing bugs. They recently advised us to downgrade to fix one particular bug, which resolved the problem we were having.We only use technical support for bug fixes, and the calls are usually closed quickly.

I was able to install it myself in about half an hour.

MySQL is free.

We have also used PhpStorm and DataGrip.

I would recommend that others use MySQL. I would rate it 10 out of 10.

We are doing POCs for our clients in our testing lab, and if a POC is working fine, then we give it for the production release. 

It has a lot of features. The RDBMS, consistency, and multi-user features are valuable.

We want high availability and replication features, which are currently missing in this solution. It would be great if they can provide an in-built replication feature, similar to Oracle RAC, in MySQL.

I have been using this solution for the last two years.

It is a stable RDBMS. There is no doubt about that.

We have been using it for POCs. It has been consistent for a hundred users. Currently, we have three groups that use this, and each group has 20 users.

I have not contacted their technical support.

It is open source. We prefer it for POCs because it saves the license cost.

I would rate MySQL an eight out of ten.

I started an Azure account and this is when I tried testing different databases, non-relational databases, and relational databases, using this solution.

The solution is easy to use.

There should be more tools to manage the on-premises version and more automation features.

The solution is able to be scaled but it depends on your Microsoft configuration. I would recommend this solution for small businesses.

The installation was fast, it took approximately five minutes.

I did the deployment of the solution myself.

There is a license needed for this solution.

I rate MySQL an eight out of ten.
