Architecte Cloud at Visiativ SA
Offers reliable engine for legacy needs but requires enhanced cost management and AI features
While MongoDB is a good product, it is also an expensive product for support, and its scalability is acceptable, but the big problem with MongoDB is the cost. For security in MongoDB, we work with encrypted databases by default, but we have not contracted the security options in our contract because it is too expensive, so we only implement encrypted databases without the security pack, which is very expensive for us; in security, we are at the first steps, just using encrypted databases. I think additional features needed in MongoDB include perhaps vector databases, as I think they are not supported right now.

Support on banking at Aithent
Handles large data volumes effectively but connection issues require attention
The Oracle NoSQL solution is used primarily for storing data for our web applications. We work alongside the DBA team for this purpose, given that specific departments manage aspects of its use. We choose it specifically to handle large scales of data, such as in one of our bank customer's scenarios using more than nine hundred gigabytes of data.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has visible benefits, actually, in terms of price of ownership if you compare it to, for example, Oracle."
"The most valuable feature of MongoDB is the predefined functions available when using Node.js. These functions simplify the query process, making it user-friendly and straightforward."
"The aggregation framework is really good, allowing a developer to build very complex queries."
"The most valuable feature is the speed of MongoDB."
"I value the API integrations."
"We can define security rules at the database level or the cluster level to grant or deny access to particular users."
"The clustering is very good. It allows us to have high availability."
"MongoDB is scalable and stable. The initial setup is very easy, and deployment and maintenance can be done by one person."
"The product meets expectations when it comes to stability."
"Oracle NoSQL is pretty scalable."
"We have a support agreement with Oracle, ensuring full support for the product. It is crucial for our public-facing features. Oracle NoSQL is easy to manage and has fast data retrieval. Its compatibility with Oracle Database is seamless, making integration between NoSQL and relational databases smooth and effortless. Oracle NoSQL and NoSQL data replication in our environment works efficiently. Oracle fully supports it, and we can easily configure and manage authentication for the NoSQL database."
"The tool is easy to learn."
"NoSQL has high availability. I think it's perfect from a technical perspective. It's quick to run and go."
 

Cons

"MongoDB can improve large-size video or media frame operations. There are a lot of customers who want to upload media frames and video games but there is some difficulty. In MongoDB, we are looking out for solutions that are for large-size media files that can be saved and navigated efficiently."
"The on-premises version of the solution is still pretty expensive, especially compared to the cloud version."
"The solution can be a bit tough to set up if you don't have knowledge about how the database works."
"I suppose it could be a little more secure."
"MongoDB should improve its data loading part."
"The performance could be faster."
"We'd like technical support to respond faster to queries."
"There are some problems with bugs appearing in sharding when the data is too high."
"The installation is difficult."
"Focusing on making the administration easier compared to other solutions like MongoDB could be beneficial. Simplifying the administrative tasks could enhance the user experience."
"Oracle could improve how NoSQL works in containers. I don't think NoSQL needs any new features, but I want to see new features in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. I would like to see some improvements in OCI's building options."
"Handling big data in a user-friendly way is currently a bit of an issue. The dashboard for this needs some work."
"I would rate Oracle NoSQL six or 6.5 out of ten based on my experience."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"MongoDB is a bit expensive compared to its competitors."
"I only used the open-source version."
"I currently use the solution's community edition which is free."
"MongoDB's pricing is reasonable."
"It's a community edition, so we do not pay anything."
"It's open-source."
"There are different licenses available to be purchased, such as individual, premium, or enterprise."
"We are using the Community Edition of MongoDB."
"The product is expensive and Oracle could work to lower the licensing cost."
