MongoDB Reviews

We use it just for data storage. I joined this company two months ago, and I am just testing it on my local machine. I haven't used it a lot.

It is easy to set up.

It would be good to have scalability for clusters. For example, if we have three clusters, we should be able to increase to five clusters if required. I am not sure if such a feature is currently there. I hope there is good documentation for this.

I have been using this solution for half a year.

We're just doing something new, and we are still in the testing stages. Based on our experience so far, it is stable.

It is scalable.

I haven't contacted their technical support.

It is easy to set up.

I would rate MongoDB an eight out of ten. It is a good product, but it requires some improvements.

Our primary use case of MongoDB was development. We used it from a developer point of view, writing the platforms and storing some data. It was deployed on the AWS cloud. 

One of the first things I noticed when I had my first experience with MongoDB was how easy it was to use. I was expecting more difficulties or at least some challenges, but it was very, very easy to use. It's great technology, performs well, and is very convenient. 

MongoDB is a very useful and convenient choice, but sometimes for more complex projects, there are certain niche requirements that appear, so using a different tool could be beneficial. It raises the complexity of the architecture, but it could be beneficial to the world, the features, the ease of the features which are being implemented. 

My experience with MongoDB is pretty recent, maybe for three years. 

This solution is stable enough. There isn't much maintenance involved—we're just installing some software and then using it—especially since I'm using it from a development point of view. 

I've heard that MongoDB is pretty scalable, but we never did any big deployment. I've read a lot about how it scales and can handle huge data. 

I have never contacted MongoDB's technical support. 

The installation is quite straightforward. I have it installed on my personal laptop and it's very easy to do. It took just a few minutes. 

There are two or three DevOps guys who are involved with and responsible for all the deployments and setups for the whole project. 

I implemented this solution myself. 

We also considered Cosmos DB. 

I rate MongoDB a nine out of ten. If I put it this way: "Can I trust this technology to perform well in a complex project?," I can certainly trust MongoDB. I have been working with some graph databases as well, and MongoDB was my first touch with noSQL technology. I think I like it even more now, after these experiences I had. 

I use MongoDB from a development point of view. For some projects, we use Docker on local environments. MongoDB actually starts in some Docker microservices where we don't run the whole platform, we're actually running locally or maybe part of the platform. With this container, we don't need to do many things with the image in Docker, we're just developing the platform. And then the deployment and scale are managed by the DevOps guys, who do their magic. We use Azure in some projects, but we mostly use AWS. 

We use it for searching. For example, we use some files and documents that are stored in MongoDB, and we use it sometimes to search for certain key words. We also use it to search within the documents that are stored in MongoDB.

MongoDB is scalable and stable. The initial setup is very easy, and deployment and maintenance can be done by one person.

I think it would be good to have more search options such as an index resource. This will provide more options and resources to do advance searches.

Criteria and filters would be good too as they will help us find what we are looking for. Filters will be useful if you want to filter something to a dashboard according to certain criteria.

I have experience with MongoDB for about six months.

MongoDB is stable. We have had no technical issues with it.

It is a scalable solution.

Technical support has been good.

Installation is very simple. It can be done in a few hours. We needed only one person for deployment and maintenance.

Our customers pay for yearly licenses for MongoDB.

It's a very good product, and I would rate it at nine on a scale from one to ten.

We are a solution provider and we develop applications.

Our primary use of MongoDB is data analytics and it is also used for document management.

MongoDB has a simple data-loading interface. It is not as formal as a traditional database system.

There should be better integration with other databases.

The security should be improved.

We have been working with MongoDB for two or three years.

We have had no issues in terms of stability.

This is a scalable solution that is better for data analysts when compared to a traditional database.

I have used other databases but they were SQL solutions. MongoDB is different because it is a NoSQL solution and the structuring of data is less formal. It has to be formatted internally.

The initial setup is good.

This is an open-source solution.

Most of the features are very nice and MongoDB is a solution that I would recommend. If a company or organization needs a document management platform or is doing marketing analysis then this is a good product.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

We use MongoDB for big data analysis. We are also developing monitoring tools, and if our data grows big enough, we'll use MongoDB to silo out the data structure.

In general, I am satisfied with this solution.

MongoDB is fast and efficient.

Currently, I understand that they're revamping and adding a lot of features, and things are moving a little slowly. The performance could be faster.

I have been working with MongoDB for a few years.

I'm not sure which version we're running, but our technical team is keeping up with the latest developments.

MongoDB for now is stable enough.

MongoDB is a scalable solution.

I am satisfied with the technical support.

Previously, I was not using another solution. It was already in place when I joined the company.

I was not involved with the installation. 

We had our technicians complete the installation.

I believe that the licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis.

I would recommend this solution to others who are considering using it.

I would rate MongoDB a seven out of ten.

I use it mainly for development. It's a plain document database that maps adjacent data structures. It doesn't cost us that much to integrate. It scales well and it's easy to replicate. It's very easy to set up and it's very easily monitored.

The solution is known for not requiring people to set a root password when you set it up, so it has leaked data, like a feed, and it's the first thing I need to teach everyone that sets the system up. There was a story out of China where there were 100 known users that were being monitored by the government and there was a MongoDB cluster. They forgot to set a root password so it was publicly available and that kinda happens over and over again so people need to at least supply some basic securities. 

Training would be very good, at least to get some basic production level set up. People need to figure it out because just setting one up is easy, but then you need to get a replica going and that's hard and then getting performers ready and that's even tougher and somewhere along the way people tend to forget about security. Every month some major company forgets to set the password.

More stable indexes would be helpful in a future release. That's been an issue for some time. I don't know if it's been fixed now but we transitioned to it because we needed a search index to be able to search for things and if that goes or starts disappearing, we have to move away from that solution. I don't know if they fixed it, last time I had this issue was three years ago so they might have solved it.

The solution is completely stable.

Scalability seems good. I've never been even close to finding the limits. I've run a couple of notes of redundancy but I've never had any problems with scalability.

I have never been in contact with the people who developed MongoDB. I've never bought any support from them or had any issues. When we've run into something like scalability or other issues, we've always managed to figure it out on our own. The community's also fairly strong so technical support isn't something we've needed.

I use Kubernetes. These are management tools where you can select which items you'd like to install first and you basically just provide what kind of features you want to be activated and how many nodes you want to be activated in the database. I would install it as part of a Kubernetes cluster and it's pretty straightforward because the chart, as its called, is managed by and used by thousands of people so I don't need to know exactly how to set up every single bit of it.

It's also all very automated, which makes it easy. In fact, I use it a lot in teaching as well because it's very easy to set up.

My first foray into MongoDB was actually when I started using a Google data store which is very similar. We ran into problems because we didn't have any search or solutions for it. We switched over to MongoDB because that had the basic search engines we needed so we can actually get some basic search going and be able to scale out. 

We didn't do a technology selection. We just had other technologies that didn't pan out so we gradually moved into MongoDB. 

The solution scales very well and is very easy to replicate.

If you need something done quickly and you need something that does scale fairly well I would suggest MongoDB. You can always transition away from it later on. It's always a solid first bet if you want a simpler kind of web page or web system. It's a very solid choice if you want to get up and running quickly. It's my go-to for all these little startups that I manage.

MongoDB seems to give just exactly what we need and I find most of my clients have never transitioned away from MongoDB.

I would rate the solution seven out of ten.

MongoDB is a database management program that can be used for large data.

MongoDB is flexible and it allows other applications to be added.

The solution could have more integration.

I have been using MongoDB for approximately one year.

I have found MongoDB to be stable.

MongoDB is scalable.

We have approximately 30 people using this solution in my organization. 

We have a team of six engineers and administrators that do the implementation and support of MongoDB.

There is an annual subscription for the use of this solution.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate MongoDB a nine out of ten.

We are a logistics company, and we have a lot of data coming from the users. We have a model, but we need to be flexible with that model. That is one of the reasons why we are using MongoDB.

It is convenient to use because we can do manipulations with the JSON data that we get. There are also a lot of joins and associations with MongoDB, which makes it easy to use for us.

There is also a lot of transaction-related support from MongoDB.

The auto transaction feature is something that I found a little bit problematic. If we want to run two or three transactions at a time, we get write conflicts. So, it becomes really difficult when concurrency comes into the picture. 

Sometimes, there are some problems in creating a connection with two or three tables, such as running two queries at a time or getting a reference from one table to another table. People generally don't use it much to join two or three tables, but I would like them to simplify that process.

It can sometimes be a little bit difficult to understand for a newcomer.

I have been using this solution for one to one and a half years.

There are a lot of articles and a lot of discussions online. So, we pretty much get all the answers that we want. If we have any problems in using it, it gets resolved as soon as possible. There are a lot of communities, and we are able to get the answers.

I was not a part of the installation process. It was already installed when I joined the company or started working with it. So, I don't have much idea about it, but when we install it locally, there is not a lot to do with it. The control that we get from the command prompt of MongoDB makes it easy to use and very convenient.

I would recommend MongoDB to others. It is good in terms of support.

I would rate MongoDB an eight out of 10.
