As I developer, I'm proficient with interacting with databases and integrating them with our custom apps. However, I don't have a background in database hosting and management. Aiven bridges that gap and allows me to focus on what I'm good at, while handling the areas I lack experience with.

There have only been a few minor hiccups over the past few years, and their customer support stepped in to help quickly resolve the issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easily I can spin up services like SQL and Redis databases that too free of cost for my hobby projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its niche focus on PostgreSQL. Companies who are able to focus on one main language can expand on it in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. Seems like a great product with a great marketing team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Aiven solutions allow my team to quickly prototype ideas and test them, without having to worry about the "boring" stuff, like DBs maintenance.

At the same time Pro plans allow us to still use Aiven for mission critical parts of our product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The metrics dashboards, at least for influx, should expose more metrics from the underlying service and computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It provides easy to configure steps, and I believe new users just like me will have no difficulties setting up their own platform on top. The flexibility offered also quite vast choices in terms of giving me lots of options to configure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found the only thing I dislike is the positioning of options switches which is too far away from the description of the options. I guess this is only my opinion, but it would be even nicer / easier if the switches are put closer to the options descriptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Regarding psql? Nothing really. It works just great. Maybe they are little bit on expensive side? But you're get what you're paying for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

$0 starting costs for evaluating with a usable abount of storage, whilst not appropriate for us at the moment, this is a real plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Docs are insufficiently clear about the differnce between AWS RDS sql and using Aiven, takes some reading to work it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
