"Easy to use and available in most environments."
"One of the great features of MariaDB is its scalability. It's easy to handle even with large databases."
"MariaDB performs well as the backend database for our cloud-based telephony solution."
"I haven't faced any technical issues with the product, and it works fine."
"It's open source."
"The solution is very stable. It was originally built under MySQL. It has a similar level of stability."
