Easily integrates with Appian

Pros and Cons

"One feedback I can quickly provide is the need for a robust IDE for MongoDB. The existing PHP admin console doesn't meet the client's requirements effectively."

What is most valuable?

The tech stack we commonly use is Appian, which inherently integrates with MongoDB. This eliminates the need for selecting third-party databases or certifications, as it seamlessly works with MongoDB.

What needs improvement?

There is the need for a robust IDE for MongoDB. The existing PHP admin console doesn't meet the client's requirements effectively.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with MariaDB for the past two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is stable. We have deployed several fraud implementations on Maria. While there have been occasional hiccups with replication and such, those can be addressed at the application level.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

In terms of scalability, I don't perceive any issues with MongoDB, given the substantial volume of clients we serve.

How are customer service and support?

I haven't encountered any blockers so far, which is why I haven't sought support.

How was the initial setup?

Our technology partner, Appian, handles the provisioning, configurations, and instant spin-up of resources for us.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

For clients predominantly using Microsoft technologies, especially Microsoft SQL, it aligns well with their technical stack. MS SQL is particularly suitable for reporting and analytics purposes.

What other advice do I have?

It ultimately depends on the specific solution we are working on. However, overall, it is a good choice when considering factors like cost, performance, and other database practices. I don't foresee any significant challenges. I would rate it 7 out of 10.

Streamlined development with integrated testing and extensive search

Pros and Cons

"Visual Studio offers unit testing integration and extensive searching capabilities."

"The features available are very basic."

What is our primary use case?

I am currently using Visual Studio Code. I have used Visual Studio for about six months, along with GitHub. Additionally, I use GitLab for Azure orchestration.

How has it helped my organization?

The unit testing and Git are integrated. The searching is very extensive, which is helpful.

What is most valuable?

Visual Studio offers unit testing integration and extensive searching capabilities.

What needs improvement?

The Git extensions can be improved. The features available are very basic. Visual Studio should offer more extensive functionality in comparison to Git-focused software like GitTower or SmartGit.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Visual Studio Code for about six months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I have not faced any issues in terms of stability.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We used to use Zoom for communication but have moved to Teams. GitLab provides what GitHub provides, so we don't use GitHub.

How was the initial setup?

If you understand your project, you can install it without needing anyone else.

What about the implementation team?

The IT department handles certain aspects, and I don't have information about it.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We are using Microsoft Teams instead of Zoom. I also mentioned GitLab, Redmine, Mongo, and GitHub Copilot is something we've considered but haven't started using.
