Most light weight database.
What do you like best? Light weight, takes less space, can be used for any application, with new workbench it's even easier to use even for a person with limited knowledge of DB. you don't have to remember all the queries now because of that.It makes our life easier for taking data dump or execute data migration projects. What do you dislike? doesn't have inbuilt integration tool where as few other DB support that. Recommendations to others considering the product: I definitely ...

Good for quick testing
What do you like best? Simple, common, stable platform. Free community version. Easy to stay very 'vanilla'. What do you dislike? Not the best UI for development. Need to integrate thrid-party for easier development outside of command-line SQL. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Basic SQL databases behind PoC's, testing integration with NoSQL and other AI software.

Great to use for data management
What do you like best? Easy to use the database with a lot of quick management. It’s a great site to use in that it has a lot of great features in managing the data. My favorite feature is sorting and transforming data into another quantitative site. What do you dislike? It can be instable at times. Also the licensing is a bit hard to get verify sometimes. It’s somewhat high in price but worth it if you have a larger company and need a huge database. Also, you can share the licensing ...

MySQL works well for the database that I have
What do you like best? We have an application that uses MySQL on the back end. Since using it I have started to migrate some of my other databases to MySQL. Previously our databases were in Access or MSSQL There is some syntax differences but it does everything I need. What do you dislike? I do a lot of integration with PowerShell. This isn't as much of an issue with MySQL as it is with windows updates but I recently had to change a lot of PowerShell scripts because the driver that I ...

SQL with MySQL
What do you like best? I started my SQL journey with Oracle in college - but later I used MySQL products - it is much simpler! And that's what I like about it. (Note: in 2006 it was not owned by oracle) What do you dislike? Support/Implementation of JSON in 5.X community versions and the difficulty to use GeoJSON/Spatial-data features. Recommendations to others considering the product: Go ahead! use without hesitation. In case of heavy usage make sure to update my.cnf for ...

Free database with a lot of potential
What do you like best? MySQL is a free and open source database manager. Its installation is fast and we can find it merged with other software such as XAMP or WAMP. The main advantage is that it behaves like the rest of SQL databases in general, but its storage capacity as information increases is significantly reduced. Another advantage of MySQL is that it connects to almost all programming languages, since being free is a very good option to test in development and avoid buying ...
