We performed a comparison between Milvus and MongoDB based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Open Source Databases solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The best feature of Milvus was finding the closest chunk from a huge amount of data."
"The solution is well containerized, and since containerization is quick and easy for me, I can scale it up quickly."
"Milvus has good accuracy and performance."
"like its performance and the stability. It's very stable and, performance-wise, it's really great."
"MongoDB is flexible and it allows other applications to be added."
"MongoDB is extremely developer-friendly because when you are starting, there is very little time needed upfront in terms of planning."
"Its flexibility, and cost. It is reasonably priced."
"MongoDB is simpler to learn and implement than traditional SQL solutions like MySQL."
"I like that MongoDB has a free version. You can also buy the enterprise edition, which is cheaper than Oracle."
"The community is great if you have problem."
"I like the document storage feature. It's pretty simple."
"Milvus' documentation is not very user-friendly and doesn't help me get started quickly."
"I've heard that when we store too much data in Milvus, it becomes slow and does not work properly."
"Milvus has higher resource consumption, which introduces complexity in implementation."
"Data encryption is possible using third-party tools but they should have their own encryption capability built-in to this solution."
"The user interface is not as friendly as Oracle, which is something that can be improved."
"The stability could be improved."
"The solution should more easily integrate with custom code."
"People coming from RDBMS should have the flexibility to write queries in SQL that can be converted into JSON queries."
"MongoDB can improve large-size video or media frame operations. There are a lot of customers who want to upload media frames and video games but there is some difficulty. In MongoDB, we are looking out for solutions that are for large-size media files that can be saved and navigated efficiently."
"It should have GUI for managing clusters. MongoDB needs a more powerful GUI to manage clusters and make switchovers. Currently, there is no good, free tool to check the replication to find out if there is a gap."
"MongoDB should better support small and medium companies. There are a lot of clients out there that are interested, however, they need something lighter and less complex and something not so expensive upfront."
