"In future releases, mainly the addition of security features would be beneficial for MariaDB."
"The solution is not scalable."
"MariaDB could be improved by adding more automation."
"MariaDB can improve by adding more features. There are a lot of features, which are available in Oracle, and which are not available in MariaDB. We hope they will introduce the features soon."
"The stability could always continue to be improved upon."
"The interface should be more user-friendly. It should be able to connect directly to the database and Interact with it without having to use commands. It needs better integration."
"The maintenance and performance could be a bit better."
"I am editing."
"A potential drawback is that the database file stored within the application's local storage could be accessible to users."
"The performance could be better."
"It could have a user-friendly GUI and better intelligence features."
