Supabase Vector Reviews

We use the product primarily to handle data models and API integrations. It simplifies security setup, API documentation generation, and database management. 

The product's feature for ease of setting up security and the automatic generation of API documentation has been invaluable. These features expedite development and ensure robust security. The performance reports and real-time notifications also benefit database management and performance tuning.

One area for the solution improvement is the inclusion of more sample code in various programming languages, particularly PHP. Expanding the support for complex transactional queries and enhancing scalability features for advanced use cases would also be beneficial.

I started using Supabase Vector around July of last year.

The stability is excellent. I rate it a nine or even higher, as the maintenance and support have been very reliable.

We anticipate around 2,000 Supabase Vector users for our new project. 

I rate scalability as a six.

We had an issue during development, and the support team was responsive and helpful.

Positive

I have used Firebase and Azure before. We switched to Supabase based on positive community feedback about its development lifecycle benefits and rapid deployment capabilities.

The initial setup is straightforward compared to other products.

Deployment took less than ten minutes, and configuration and setup took about 15 to 20 minutes. It was even quicker for cloud services as it involved subscribing and commissioning the service.

I rate the process an eight and a half.

For smaller projects, one person is sufficient to handle implementation. However, a team of four may be needed to manage backend activities effectively for larger projects with thousands of users, like the one we are currently working on.

Supabase has saved us significant costs and development time, which is valuable for startups and existing companies alike.

I rate it a nine in terms of ROI. 

The solution's cost is reasonable compared to other solutions. We currently use the standard plan, which costs about $480 annually, and may switch to a full data plan depending on project needs.

I rate the pricing a three out of ten. 

The platform's role-level security feature is quite effective for spatial data management. It allows you to define and manage access controls efficiently. Another useful feature is the performance and analytics reporting, which helps you monitor and optimize your database performance. The AI prompts for query assistance are also beneficial, although I haven't used the real-time notifications feature extensively.

The features that have improved data analysis are the performance and tuning tips that Supabase provides. These tips help you optimize queries and functions, which is crucial for handling complex data operations. However, I've noticed that security settings are only sometimes visible in the data definition views, which can be challenging when recreating objects or debugging.

Overall, I rate it an eight.
