"The most powerful, feature-rich open-source relational database management system"
What do you like best about PostgreSQL?

The main plus point about PostgreSQL is that it's an open-source R-DBMS that is very reliable, making it a first choice for startups and other organizations. Also, it has gained a high reputation for its high performance while handling high volumes of datasets very efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostgreSQL?

One thing I feel that's a downside in PostgreSQL is that its GUI functionality is very limited and not that user-friendly, making it challenging for first-timers to use its complete functionalities, especially when they are not used to the command-line interface.

"PostgreSQL: a good alternative to Oracle RDBMS"
What do you like best about PostgreSQL?

High compatibility with Oracle SQL and Oracle PL/SQL. With very few changes, you are able to migrate an Oracle Database to PostgreSQL. There are also a good choice for what concern high availability and load balancing solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostgreSQL?

PostgreSQL is able to manage JSON data with native datatype and APIs. But if you need to query datasets over 10 Gbytes of raw data, consider transforming JSON documents to normalized tables because queries may have time-out issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great database with mature capabilities"
What do you like best about PostgreSQL?

It has a rich and mature feature set where things like referential integrity weren't an afterthought (compared to MySQL). Documentation is also excellent, and modern ANSI SQL syntax is well supported. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostgreSQL?

It's not as widespread as MySQL is, so it can be harder to find people that are strong DBA skills or know the specifics of its internal workings, but it isn't that bad either. It's not like it's some unknown DBMS either, it's simply not as widespread as MySQL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Relational DBMS in market"
What do you like best about PostgreSQL?

PostgreSQL provides an open-source environment to all users. It's easy to use and easy to understand it's functionality. Creating your own data set for testing or exploring new data set both work in the best way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PostgreSQL?

PostgreSQL is good for beginners but its integration parts didn't work properly. Such as JSON data or others. PostgreSQL needs to work on the integration part of this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
