Fast automated setup, ease of use and repeatability, strong starting security baseline Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Limited flexibility and higher licensing cost over time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The prebuilt image usually starts from a reasonably well-patched OS baseline, which feels safer than a random manual install. It also aligns well with common cloud automation patterns: you can spin instances up and down quickly, and scale by switching instance types. Overall, it’s fast and convenient on Day 0.

The biggest downside is Day 2 operations: after deployment, you still need serious DBA/ops work (backups, monitoring, patching, security hardening, performance tuning) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The latest edition 2019 provides support till the year 2030! A decade free of re-installations for the SQL Server developers. This is a good sign for reliability. Improved code performance features are another plus, that makes 99% of the SQL queries run faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The learning takes longer due to the lack of best practices present in the documentation. The 2017 version is more preferable by the developers due to its longer shelf life, stability, and considering a good balance between the existing and new features added.
