Arango Reviews & Product Details

easy to learning, simple daabase administration and strong query language Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Arango Web Interface is not supported for multi-tab UI query Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have a mapping platform that has an immense amount of GeoJson data. During our platform architecture phase, having a graph database was a major requirement. We began the search through the more popular graph databases only to find that none of them handled GeoJson natively. This meant that we would need two databases, a graph database and one that natively handled GeoJson aka a NoSQL database. We were not happy....then we found ArangoDB which stores document, graph, and key-value data PLUS GeoJson natively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, we do not find anything that we really do not like. If there was anything, it might be that their annual enterprise license is quite steep. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ArangoDB is the best database I have used so far. The multi-model approach of storing graphs, documents, k/v and search all in one solution is a game-changer + IT SCALES! ArangoDB is really easy to pick up and everything seems very logical. The AQL (Arango query language) is very simple and intuitive, it took me and the team a couple of hours to get comfortable in writing queries. We were looking into TigerGraph and Neo4j before ArangoDB and it was not a hard decision to make, Neo4j simply doesn't scale (as we saw in our testing) and TG, even though being very performant was way too complex and writing queries was a nightmare to be honest.

The graph visualizer. It is ok, it has all the basic functions but it stops there. I hope that is next on their roadmap as this is the only area I see them being behind some of their competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No messy foreign table key references, clean edge documents to link documents Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't find anything to dislike apart from the fact that it is not yet as popular as other NoSQL databases used for production environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Multi Dimensional capabiltiies. The excellent query abilities and integration into language drivers. Optimial geo-queries. The Foxx environment allows for interesting microservice scenariois. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

INability to unit test foxx database interacvtions on the client. Need for foxx mocking libraries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best feature of ArangoDB is that it is a mature multi-modal database. We are using out-of-box features to create graph and document databases at the same time. AQL and Javascript native FOXX are easy to implement. ArangoDB is open source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Creating Property graphs is easy. However, there is no direct way to create RDF/OWL graph. RDF triples are useful in machine learning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the fully hosted, managed and monitored cloud storage and cluster deployment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have no problems with my DB, everything perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part was maintenance and the GUI interface of the product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Management wasn't with the nodes of db Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The query language is incredibly convenient. The performance is excellent. Top marks for ease of use, flexibility, and performance. Scalability is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The built-in graph visualization isn't optimal, but third-party graph visualizations integrate well enough to compensate. It doesn't have quite as extensive an external ecosystem as Neo4J. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The AQL query language is the best by far. What I also like a lot is that you can start using arango as a replacement for mongo and progressively as the project scales you might need the search or graph etc so no extra database is needed, and that's awesome!

What I don't like is the fact that if you want to start using the cloud version, you have to go to a paid version from day one. There should be a free tier for people to play around for very small projects. AWS, Google etc have free tiers for their databases to attract more developers to use their services.
