MYSQL is the most reliable database manager

10 /10

What differentiates Percona MySQL from other similar products?

The use of this software has helped us enormously, since the storage of the large amount of information that we manage is no longer a problem. It supports a large amount of data and is so intuitive that we have all been able to learn how to use it without any inconvenience.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Anyone can use it since it has a free version for life and is quite complete with many functions. And if you need additional features, there are very cost effective paid options. It works perfectly with almost any operating system and you don't need a large computer for the program to work perfectly.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It can be overwhelming when we have a lot of information or a large amount of cells in the databases. It is a very useful tool and with many functions, but so many, they can also load the interface making the experience stressful with so much information. They can improve, distributing better the information that is seen in the main screen.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It is the perfect platform to store all the important information and database of the company. I highly recommend it, first the free version that helped us a lot for a long time and helped us to improve in many aspects in terms of organization with customers and then the paid version for having many more features we needed.
