PostgreSQL Reviews

GIS function. Geography is a very important function/dimension for our f. Postgres helps analyse that easily.

It provides access to data for analytics. It has a lot of free tools available for data access, and has easy integration with a lot of visualization tools such as QlikView and Tableau.

They need to develop an easy way to do a cross-DB query and some basic report visuals and alert systems would make it awesome, if they are possible.

We had no deployment issues.

The product is quite stable.

There's been no issues with scaling it for our needs.

It has a great support community.

It's very easy, and you only need to familiarize yourself with its file structure. Sometimes you need to write your own plugin, so sometimes it is better to have it implemented by a vendor.

It's free as it's open source.

For me all SQL tools/products are similar, except for a few important differences like GIS functions in PostgreSQL, and programming abilities in Oracle PL/SQL, etc.

Go ahead with the product which has the best use case for your organization. Cost is never an issue.

• It's open source product not need to license, so economic
• It provides a graphical interface (pgAdmin) simple, intuitive and efficient
• Simple installation 
• It does not consume a lot of resources
• Really suitable for business n-tier solutions
• Rich documentation
• An interactive community

The strength of this product is set in the timeliness of SELECT queries with lots of joins. compared with other DBMS, it is really optimized for joins.

I think that due to the lack of functionality for data warehousing, it is more suitable for operational information systems instead of BI systems. Besides, it only allows Relational Online Analytical Processing (ROLAP) not Multidimensional Online Analytical Processing (MOLAP).

There have been no issues with the deployment.

We have had no issues with the stability.

It's been able to scale for our needs.

Because we use it in many information systems (Financial, Human Resources, Inventory Management) in several large companies with significant data flow, we have not had problems. It was effective as a product.

Read the product documentation well and know the configuration parameters because just one incorrect parameter can affect the entire database.

It's reliability is key.

It allows us to deploy test functionality on a very simple normal computer and not on a server.

I'd like to have NoSQL available in this version. It is available in the latest one.

I've been using it for six years.

We had no issues with the deployment.

I've had no stability issues.

It scaled for our needs.

8/10

I switched as I needed to increase the volume of data.

It was a bit complex to setup, although I think this was due to ignorance on the project.

We did it in-house, but only to test different databases.

Use it, to change the default database, it's a good option.

From our use of it, its stability and performance are the best features. The fact that there's no downtime and that it functions quickly are very important to our workflow and business.

We're in the evaluation period at my current company, so we haven't really seen improvement to our functioning.

The multi-master replication feature needs improvement.

I've used it for eight years now.

We've had issues with deployment, but I can't share the details.

We've had issues with stability, but I can't share the details.

We've had issues with scalability, but I can't share the details.

We are running the open source version and haven't purchased technical support.

Yes, we evaluated other solutions, and we are moving away from PostgreSQL after the evaluation period.

The initial setup is very straightforward.

The implementation was done with our in-house team. My advice is to get training.

Authentication config could be made easier.

It's very stable.
