It has the capacity to handle and control all of my data from a single location due to its combined and potent engine. Its high configuration and setup settings are responsible for its flexible construction.

What do you dislike about Microsoft SQL Server?

MS SQL is not for relational database newbies. To fix initial setup issues, establish users, set up permissions, etc., programming abilities are required. Particular mistakes can be difficult to comprehend. Finding the best remedy could depend on the specific situation, even though there is a tonne of advice available online. An experienced user can prevent these, but a novice may struggle to fix database problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
