The main feature I expect is to be able to work with different databases at the same time because that's a wishlist item for me. Part of the wishlist.

It is not easy to integrate the tool with Visual Studio.

Database sharing is a capability that Firebird SQL lacks. With database sharing, we can split the database into different machines. Database sharing is a functionality I would like to see in the solution, especially when implementing it at very large sites.

It would be nice to have a graphical user interface to handle the product. A lot of databases have it. I don't think Firebird has it. I use the ISQL directly. It's fine for me. However, it takes a while when you're creating databases and stuff. It would be helpful.

The security of the users could improve in Firebird SQL.

Technical support and performance could be better. We have some problems with this solution, but we don't know if the problem is with the database or the configuration. For example, sometimes, the users can't access the database.

This solution isn't very user-friendly, or intuitive, which could be improved when it is developed.

The solution could improve by providing partitioning and encryption. It is not at the higher level of database solution but it could be with some upgrades.

There aren't a lot of people using this solution — it's not very popular in the marketplace. It's been around for 21 years, but not many people have heard of it. In the next release, it should support JSON, XML, and replication with third-party tools.

It would be good to have more automation and integration with the tools from other vendors.

I've never had any issues with the solution, so I can't think of any improvements it would need. It would be interesting if they added functionality with redundancy, reputation, and variability.

I think the performance and features of the program can be improved. The scalability of the performance when using more than one process is not so good. I would also like more or better security.
