"My experience with SQL Server 2016 Web on Windows Server 2016"

4/5

What do you like best about Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Web on Windows Server 2016?

What I like best about Microsoft SQL Server 2016 is its performance on OLTP queries. This version is stable and there is a significant improvement in in-memory queries. Also, SQL Server 2016's Stretch Database feature serves as a true link between your on-premises solution and your data in the Azure cloud. If your business goals allow it, you can offload database administration and management to the cloud with Azure SQL Database or SQL Server on Azure Virtual Machines.

What do you dislike about Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Web on Windows Server 2016?

What I least like about it is its price. The software is not suitable for small businesses because it is more expensive as compared to the other ones. However, the cost is worth it. Microsoft SQL Server 2016 doesn't support Linux. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
