We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
"The features that I have found most valuable include the very easy integrations. The integrations are fantastic. I have not faced any challenges from the integration standpoint."
"The most valuable feature is the schemaless architecture."
"The cloud-based nature of this solution makes it flexible and scalable."
"Scalability is very easy. If you want to, you can make it onto two or three servers, racks, or whatever you want. It's easy."
"When we want more information on something that we are using, it is easy to find related topics on the internet."
"One of the key features is Oracle Database as a Service. We chose to implement it as a service, which provides good performance, for example. Flexibility and other features let us implement database research with the SQL team range of features also."
"It is a product brought to you by a company that concentrates only on database solutions, so it is the best at what it does."
"The most valuable aspects of the solution are the general database system resilience and security."
"The most valuable feature is the integration into other Oracle applications."
"I am still new with it, but since I mentioned that I'm using this product for only the last six months and my experience with this product is good thus far, on a scale of one to ten, I would give MongoDB Atlas a six."
"The replica side, like the venue, can be improved."
"Querying a dataset is not very intuitive, so I think that it can be improved."
"Some of the technical features could be improved. They have a problem with some of the object types. I think this is one of the issues which is needed to be improved."
"In the next release, I would like to see a framework for memory management."
"The direct scaling is a feature that has room for improvement. I would like to see virtual management machines that can scale storage well with zero downtime. The backup option and patching would then be much easier to do."
"The interface can be difficult and there may be so many features that users and even vendors are unaware that they exist."
"Documentation is difficult to find. Since we're experienced with Oracle technology, we have also found many errors in it. Not everything is 100% accurate."
"The licensing model is complicated and should be simplified."
"We're currently using the Atlas for the night and don't require a license. However, it can be a problem if you want to use their enterprise environment. Then you need to purchase the license."
"The price depends on the solution you choose: standard, enterprise, or high performance. For example, enterprise can start between 0.4 an hour up to 1,800. Additional fees also depends on what package you choose. Your feels will be different if you choose the standard, enterprise, high performance, or extreme package. You will pay in relation to what option you ask for. The price is very good if you compare it to other databases."
"The pricing may seem expensive, but the value corresponds to the quality of the product."
"The pricing is a little bit expensive."
