Ideal, stable, good support and it helps with the developer console
I have used MongoDB, MySQL, and Oracle. MongoDB is entirely different. It's a NoSQL platform database, so it's totally different. It is a little bit hard to work with.

But technically, there is not much difference.

Cons

"Improvement could be made in the workflow, particularly when it comes to making changes or implementing certain functions."

"Maintenance is time-consuming."
