"Less time, less worry using SQL Server Stretch Database"
What do you like best about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

What I like best is that this program puts efficiency at your fingertips. In the database indstry, we know that queries being able to run like clockwork is the nature of our business. That's what this program was created for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

A couple things jump out at me when I think of what I dislike. One is the support around M.S. products. I don't like dealing with people through emails. I've found it tedious and taxing to try to get even the most basic questions answered from M.S. There have been times where I've explicitly told a support rep to not email me but rather call me and they still don't call me. I don't really like the cost layout either. For a small business, it makes the program cost-prohibitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

SQL Server instance is costly for small business people, it makes the program cost-prohibitive and it supports only for windows machines not supported in Linux based systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Solution For Database Management"
What do you like best about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

MS Sql Server is a strong application to manage the databases on production system. Its easy to use and cross platform tool. Connectivity on different application is very simple. Its performance and response is effective. This application has a large number of inbuilt functions using that database development task becomes easy. We can with ease create new database objects like Table, View, Stored Procedure, Cursor, Indexing etc. Stored procedure execution and tracing is good enough. Using trace we can easily debug the SQL server requests and processing time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

It works perfect on Windows OS, but not for Unix or Linux. Query performance is slower than oracle. He needs to create a competitor for Exadata. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Learning A New Tool...It Great!"
What do you like best about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

This program has a good dashboard. things are easy to locate but unfortunately that is where it ends. The one thing that Azure does provide is that it allows my organization to share its physical resources with all 14 of our Divisions across one County (different locations). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

Most software/programs in this field are similar and if you can use one, you can use them all. That is not the case with this software/program. I'd recommend that anyone who will be using this get some kind of formal training or at least watch a video on YouTube. It is not the most user-friendly program.

"Storing data efficiently in the cloud"
What do you like best about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

Love the ability to utilize this software for moving “cold” data to the cloud because it’s hard to store so much data on premise without making changes to any existing queries or views. Using this software allows us to report off of millions of records of historical and current data records when looking to analyze future trends. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

The biggest problem with this solution is the cost. It’s great for smaller companies looking to store historical data in the cloud, however may not be feasible for larger companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Azure SQL Server Stretch"
What do you like best about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

Neat and easy to use tool to connect on premise database to cloud database for easy access without any need for gateways. Helps in querying faster and easy access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure SQL Server Stretch Database?

Time taken is high sometimes but its acceptable. Can maybe improve with some kind of cache implementation with some data taken and persisted to the cloud. Also, this feature requires SQL 16 or above hence all legacy servers have to be updated to use this feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
