We performed a comparison between Firebird SQL and SQLite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Oracle, Progress Software and others in Embedded Database."The documentation is very well written."
"I appreciate the fact that, once the database is embedded, it doesn't need to be administered, and removes the requirement for a specific server."
"I can deploy it on Linux, Mac OS, and Windows — it's very easy."
"I like that we don't have to pay external fees to migrate this data. So, we are looking to relocate from Postgres or EDB."
"I find the ease of deployment to be the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Robustness is the absolutely main feature."
"Firebird SQL is an open-source solution and can run on most operating systems, such as Linux, Unix, and Windows."
"The most valuable feature of Firebird SQL is the creation of databases."
"SQLite’s most valuable feature is the ability to store granular-level backups of databases."
"I use Flutter Technology with the JSF plugin."
"The product is lightweight and highly scalable."
"It is not easy to integrate the tool with Visual Studio."
"In the next release, it should support JSON, XML, and replication with third-party tools."
"It would be good to have more automation and integration with the tools from other vendors."
"Database sharing is a capability that Firebird SQL lacks."
"I don't think the solution is very scalable, because the scalability of the performance when using more than one process is not very good."
"The security of the users could improve in Firebird SQL."
"It would be nice to have a graphical user interface to handle the product."
"On large databases, we have some difficulties."
"The performance could be better."
"It could have a user-friendly GUI and better intelligence features."
"I primarily use SQLite for small-scale applications due to its limitations in storing large amounts of data. For larger-scale projects, I typically opt for MySQL or other alternatives. Storing a large number of dates in SQLite can significantly impact its performance."
