Describe the project or task EDB Postgres Advanced Server helped with:

I used Enterprise DB when I worked for Pitney Bowes. It was a great and versatile database because I depended on Postgis, the spatial part of Enterprise DB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about EDB Postgres Advanced Server?

The upsides were the versatility and the flexibility Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pure anecdotal but from what I’ve heard, it’s difficult if you really want to replace your oracle database you can do that. How ever Oracle is so tightly integrated you end up having two systems anyway.

Not really an enterprise DB issue per se Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
