Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product enables the users to query results faster."
"MongoDB is a NoSQL tool that gives us much freedom to manipulate how the data works."
"The installation is very stable."
"The solution is user-friendly with a good object retrieval feature."
"It is very fast - faster than an SQL or MySQL Server."
"I like the schemaless architecture that it follows. I also like the sharding that it provides."
"The most valuable feature of MongoDB is the NoSQL database. In a SQL database, we need to join data together with a unique ID amongst other things, but in MongoDB, it's not required. We can directly receive all the information. The performance is very good. Additionally, they have frequent updates."
"MongoDB has many good replication features and good performance."
"The solution's most important aspect is its seamless database."
 

Cons

"The product should enable users to import data from various databases."
"You need integration with other tools to run the query in MongoDB."
"They could improve the UI and the analytics part."
"The solution can be a bit tough to set up if you don't have knowledge about how the database works."
"Data encryption is possible using third-party tools but they should have their own encryption capability built-in to this solution."
"I rate the support from MongoDB a four out of five."
"The solution should have better integration."
"It should have GUI for managing clusters. MongoDB needs a more powerful GUI to manage clusters and make switchovers. Currently, there is no good, free tool to check the replication to find out if there is a gap."
"There is a need for improvement in MongoDB's customer support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not expensive."
"MongoDB is not expensive."
"There are different licenses available to be purchased, such as individual, premium, or enterprise."
"I chose MongoDB because it is cost-effective compared to Oracle, which can be expensive. In addition, MongoDB has good performance and has not caused any issues while working with it. It has been a good choice for me."
"If you want support with the solution you will need to purchase a license and not use the open-source version. The license is a little expensive."
"I believe that the licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"MongoDB is an open-source solution."
"There is an annual subscription for the use of this solution."
"MongoDB is an open-source product."
