The technology is mature, and it has robust community support
In 2.0, Ethereum adopted a proof-of-stake algorithm. The speed of transaction processing is still slow, and the gas fees are quite high. Decentralized finance couldn't take off because of the high transaction fees. For example, if you want to transfer $1 worth of value, you might end up paying more than that for the transaction fee.

Quick to deploy and offers good features but needs more tutorials
The scalability will be in the next version. Right now, there isn't much scalability. In version 2.3 they might have added it. We need to have this. When you have applications that require high volumes of transactions, the scalability has to be there. They need to improve the ease of upgrading from one version to another. They don't do a good job. They tell you what is new in the new version, however, they really don't prompt you to upgrade. From a feature and function perspective, they are geared towards a more open-source enterprise side, which is okay. They should continue that, however, at the same time, they should also start looking at building other interoperable options on top. It should work a bit more as Amazon Web Services does. They should give a base code that users can take and write on top of. There should be a marketplace around it with integrations available for things like payment gateways. There need to be more tutorials. This would help people learn the product and make it easier to use. It would be nice if they developed a community around it so that if I had an issue, I could go online and see if someone else has a similar problem that they managed to solve. Of, if they had a piece of code, I could just take it and customize it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Ethereum is an open-source solution, so anybody can use the specifications and implementations available."
"There's lots of integration potential."
 

Cons

"Ethereum wasn't scalable in version 1.0 when it used a proof-of-work consensus algorithm. It still isn't scalable in 2.0 Scalability is one of Ethereum's primary limitations because the number of transactions per node is restricted. That is one problem we're trying to solve with our blockchain product."
"They need to improve the ease of upgrading from one version to another."
