"Great database for small projects and business"

MySQL is available on most web hosting services and works very well when combining different scripting languages when designing websites with many items (using with php is quite common). It's speedy and easy to maintain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

MySQL can get relatively slow when managing large database entries or making changes on many entries at once. Once in a while, there would be some stability issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Best Relational Database Management System"
What do you like best about MySQL?

The thing that I like the most about MySQL is how simple it is to set up and easy to start using. If you know SQL, there is no learning curve for actually using this database management system. It also has integration with various tools that I use on a day-to-day basis, such as IntelliJ Idea. Another thing that I like about MySQL is that it allows for fast and lossless recovery of data if someehting goes wrong during transactions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MySQL?

The only thing that I dislike about MySQL is that it gets a bit slow and takes significant performance hits when working with large databases. Other than that, there is nothing I dislike about MySQL, as it perfectly suits my needs at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
