MariaDB Reviews & Product Details

The community support around the software is helping us resolve issues more quickly. The fact that it's open source and does not have a complicated licence allows us to use it on almost every project. The performance has been on par with the competition like MySQL or Postgres. It integrates seamlessly with our existing PHP applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use MariaDB in our company for an application that handles a large amount of data, and it has been reliable for us. Even with continuous usage and growing data, it manages everything without major issues.

From the application side it is easy to work with. Queries run as expected and integration was not difficult. Once it is set up, it doesn’t need much attention on a daily basis.

It also helps us keep data organized across different parts of the application without making the setup too complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some parts of the setup were not very clear in the beginning, especially when configuring things beyond basic usage. It took some time to understand how everything works properly.

Also, when something goes wrong, the error messages are not always helpful, so it takes extra time to find the actual issue.

It’s not a big problem once you get used to it, but initially it can be a bit confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has all the features that MySQL has behind a locked firewall, all included in the free and open source MariaDB.

There are functions and datatypes which MariaDB provides for encryption. There are tools which can easily backup and restore the database both logically and physically. Since it will store data, it needs to have data storage management and MariaDB performs well. Different access levels and permissions are defined for users. It is so extensive that it can be done per user per table. There are many programming languages which have connectors for MariaDB. For High Availability, we need clustering and MariaDB provides it as Galera Clusters. Data is very easily imported and exported. It is used every day. Very easy to use and implement. Great user community providing support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
