The best feature of Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Express, in my opinion, is its strong support for T-SQL, which makes it easier to write complex queries, joins, and stored procedures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I don’t like about Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Express is how slow it can be when fetching a large number of rows from a table. I also notice the same issue when I load data into a table. I use SQL scripts I created that include multiple validation checks; the validations themselves are quite simple and shouldn’t take much time, but the query still takes too long to return results. I don’t like this because it ends up wasting a lot of time.

Also, I can’t leave the screen unattended while a script is running, because it disconnects from the server when the screen is locked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
