"This solution is user-friendly."
"It is a scalable solution. It easily scales up and scales down."
"It is a stable solution."

"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."
"I would like to see a better user interface which would make the tool less complex."
"We have had some stability issues with SAP SQL Anywhere, but I am not sure if it is an application or network issue. We sometimes have a large amount of data being queried and it cannot handle it."
