Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB Reviews

We have a massive quantity of data that we need to maintain, and we can't put it in a relational database since we need all of the data and want it to be queried quickly.

We maintain it in non-relational databases such as Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB.

It's not a specific feature that I value, but the scalability of this system is the most impressive aspect.

The UI should be improved since if you provide the option to query directly when signing into the Azure portal, it makes no sense if you have such a poor UI for querying that you can't even feed the reports correctly. 

It should offer a simple user interface for querying Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB.

I have been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for a long time, almost forever.

We are always working with the latest version.

It's fairly stable. I have no complaints about the stability of Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is fully scalable.

Users do not connect to Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB directly. Our APIs connect to Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB and are then used by the front end. 

Estimating the number of users is impossible.

Because our complete setup is in Microsoft, we have access to the most premium Microsoft assistance, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We have never had a problem with technical support.

The initial setup is straightforward.

The RU's use case determines our license fees. It fluctuates based on how many RUs we have. It's not a fixed-line.

Because our whole solution was hosted on Azure, this was the default option for us. We didn't look into any other possibilities.

I would recommend this solution to others who are interested in using it.

I would rate Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB a seven out of ten.

The company is using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for business intelligence information, specifically for demand management.

What I like about Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is that it's easy to do data ingestion and use the data in different applications. If you talk about business intelligence such as the Power BI tool, it's easy to connect because both are Microsoft products. With Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB, it's easy to connect and do data ingestion.

At the moment, because I'm still new in terms of using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB, I don't have any feedback regarding areas for improvement in the product. So far, it has met all the expectations and needs of my company.

It would be nice to have more options to ingest the data, for example, more file options or more search options. Currently, you can use JSON, but if there were other file types you can use for data ingestion, that would be nice. This is the additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB.

I've been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for the past six months.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is a stable product.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is a scalable product.

We have a partnership with Microsoft, so the response time of the technical support team for Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is really good at the moment.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB was easy to set up.

I've been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB, a cloud DB solution. It's deployed in a cloud environment, on a public cloud with security for ourselves.

My company is a partner of Microsoft and also a reseller.

My advice to people looking into implementing Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is that it would be good for them to use, specifically if they are looking for a NoSQL database to ingest the data and do data discovery using the data in a BI tool. It's easy to ingest the data and work with the data in Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB and understand that, because it is not a SQL database, which means it's not as structured. You can add data, and then do a data discovery, and use it the best way for you. I would recommend Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB.

My rating for Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is eight out of ten.

We mostly use it for NoSQL use cases. We use it for web applications, mobile applications, and social applications in the financial sector.

It is deployed on-premises and on the cloud, and we are using its latest version but not the one in the public review.

Its wide support to the ecosystem is valuable. We can use this database with a lot of use cases, and that's one of the reasons why we prefer it. We have a lot of vendors, databases, and use cases, and wherever possible, we are trying to standardize databases. It is also secure.

At this stage, we would like more enterprise support. We use MongoDB a lot, and we're trying to get rid of MongoDB. So, I would like to see more features in the Cosmos DB API for MongoDB space.

I have been using this solution for almost two years.

It is stable. It has 99.999% availability, and it is backed by SLAs.

We have thousands of users.

We use the cloud version and the on-prem version. We have our on-prem database engineering team. For the cloud, we are okay with their support.

We use MongoDB a lot, and we're trying to get rid of MongoDB.

It is easy to install. I tried it in a testing environment, and it was easy. Database experts should be able to do it easily.

For the cloud, we don't pay for the license, but for the on-prem versions, we do pay.

I would rate Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB a nine out of 10.

We use the product to input data that doesn't require structuring. 

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB's most valuable feature is latency. 

The tool's pricing is expensive.

I rate the tool a nine out of ten. 

We provide automated solutions to manufacturing plants. 

The solution is user friendly and Microsoft's technical support is good. 

In Microsoft manufacturing, managers really need to know about the product. This market is flooded by other vendors. So putting Microsoft in action in such places looks challenging.

I have been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for four months. 

Microsoft Cosmos is stable. 

It is a scalable solution and twelve hundred users are using the solution. 

The entire POC process and Microsoft's entire page were really smooth. There are no hiccups at all, and the kind of documentation support has really helped to build a competitive customer, so that is good enough.

I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten. 

The technical support team is good.

I use Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for some web applications.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that it makes it easy for users to access web applications like Visio while not being complex like AWS at the same time.

The pricing of the solution is an area with certain shortcomings. From an improvement perspective, I wish for the solution to offer users an increased storage capacity at a cheaper price.

I have been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for a few months.

I rate the solution's stability eight to nine out of ten. The solution's stability is good.

It is a scalable solution.

There are almost 1,000 users of the solution in my institution.

The solution is deployed on the cloud.

I think that there was a third-party involvement required during the solution's deployment phase.

Right now, I have opted for the student subscription plan, for which Microsoft charges me around 100 USD. The pricing of the solution depends on the solution's usage.

I recommend the solution to those who plan to use it. It is a cloud-based solution that is easy to deploy, easy to access, and provides users with more features compared to other clouds like AWS and GCP.

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.

We normally use Cosmos DB for data storage.

There are a lot of security features that can be integrated with Cosmos DB. The solution is easy to use, and it is also easy to integrate with several things for database use cases.

I would like the speed of transferring data to be improved.

I’ve been using it for two to three years, and I’m working on the latest version.

The solution is stable.

The solution is very scalable. We have more than 1,000 users in our company.

The initial setup is straightforward. We deploy Cosmos DB once or twice a quarter. We have three or four teams handling deployment and maintenance, which is about 38 members.

We implement the solution in-house.

We are receiving an ROI with this solution.

Cost isn’t a big hurdle for us right now. The solution is not costly.

I recommend Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB to anyone who wants to use it. If you are using Azure Stack, it is a good solution to use

We use Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for faster databases.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is scalable with multiple master files. The performance of the solution is also good.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB's pricing model is complicated, which people don't understand. So, the pricing model should be improved.

We have had an ROI with the solution.

The pricing model of Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is a bit complex.

We are using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB as a cloud-based solution. Two admins and one manager are required for the deployment and maintenance of the solution.

New users must keep an eye on its pricing models and configure them properly.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB an eight out of ten.
