What do you dislike about MariaDB?

perhaps an inbuild first-party GUI to interact with the database as it is mainly used by a web application that often has visual web pages. almost always I've used it with PHPMyAdmin so the first party would be much appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Relational Database"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MariaDB?

I mostly like simple SQL query access to store and retrieve data. Transaction management is also excellent. We can set auto commit false/true whenever we do more than one transaction in a single request. Using MariaDB in web application development is very easy and cost-effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MariaDB?

Sometimes handling a lot of data in a single table becomes very slow. Also in the case of stored procedures debugging is quite tricky. Also, It could be more beneficial if it supports scheduling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Open Source Database for Startups and Mid Scale Businesses"
5/5
What do you like best about MariaDB?

There are hundreds of costs involved when starting a business. You can only pay for a few and use the rest for core business ops. MariaDB is an open-source database used by many big organizations. It is built by devs of MySQL and runs just like it. Setting it up (for example - on AWS, MariaDB is the default database engine), operating it, and finding developers to work on it are easy and cost-effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MariaDB?

MariaDB has almost everything plus extra features when compared with MySQL. I don't have anything I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Overview and features of MariaDB"
4.5/5
What do you like best about MariaDB?

Comprises a Distributed architecture that provides failover and data backup. It supports SQL syntax for query processing. It can easily deploy on-premise servers or on public/private cloud setup. Security features are good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MariaDB?

MariaDB performs slowly when data size grows enormously, especially on a cloud setup. Indexing is a bit slow and can be improved. Also, it consumes a good amount of storage, which can be further optimized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
