MongoDB Enterprise Advanced Reviews

We use it in our virtual environment.

Our software produces a lot of predefined JSON Structures. We save those JSONs in an encrypted form inside MongoDB.

It's simple storage of JSON. We do not perform any database functions.

In our case, it is most important to have redundancy. It supports a replica set and it allows us to use mutual TLS for authentications with the certificates.

The documentation is useful.

We work with the community edition and it would be really nice to have for the database side encryption, but it's not available in the community. It is only available in the enterprise edition.

We use mutual TLS, which means we use the certificate for authentication and connection encryption.

When I want to connect to a node, I need to supply the certificate that MongoDB trusts, even though I use an admin password. This is not useful, and it complicates things.

It would be much more useful if I have an admin user and a password.

I would like it to be more straightforward when connecting to a node.

We have been using MongoDB for the last 12 months.

We are using version 4.4.0.

It's pretty stable. We don't have any complaints.

It's a scalable solution. We haven't had any issues. 

We are in development mode, and not really used by users. We have five people for development.

We can't know for sure if we will continue to use this solution. We are still in the development phase so we have to see when we finish.

I have not contacted technical support. I used the official documentation, which was enough for me.

The initial setup was straightforward. We used Docker, so it was pretty easy.

It didn't take long to deploy.

It's free. It's a community edition, so we do not pay anything.

There are no additional costs.

We didn't really evaluate other solutions. We did not have strict requirements in choosing a database. We just needed to keep JSON files informed when we produce them and MongoDB seems to be fine for us.

I would rate MongoDB a nine out of ten.

It stores historical data with ease. For example, if you are a healthcare member, then you will have multiple records of visits to the doctors. To store such data in Oracle Database, you have to create many records. You might also have duplication problems because your records are going in again and again, because of which the data warehouse and the maintenance cost will be huge. MongoDB is comparatively lightweight. It is a JSON extract. Once you define a schema and extract it, you can push all the relationships in any way you want. It is easier to define and get different types of transactions into MongoDB. It is also easier to set it up as compared to other solutions.

MongoDB is a NoSQL database, which means it is a document DB in which you can store documents that you created in BSON. It is pretty fast in response. It is faster than relational databases because it does not define any primary keys, secondary keys, tertiary keys, and all those kinds of things.

A normal Oracle or database tester will take some time to gear up to MongoDB because the way of writing queries is different in MongoDB. There should be some kind of midway where a person who is coming from an Oracle background can write a query and get a response by using something like a select * statement or other such things. There should be some way for MongoDB to interpret these commands rather than making a person learn MongoDB commands and writing them. I struggled while writing these MongoDB commands. I had not seen such queries before. It was pretty difficult to get them. This is one of the areas where it would help from the improvement standpoint.

It is stable.

It is scalable.

I haven't called them ever. I haven't seen any issues, so I would say it's pretty good.

I don't know, but I have heard from people who procure it that it is much cheaper than Oracle.

It is a good tool. You should give it a try. It has a very good and different perspective of looking at how data can be stored in a database and restored from a database because it is not like a straight query or record. The data is just in files. It does whatever a database should do.

I would rate MongoDB a nine out of ten.

We used MongoDB on AWS for a specific project.

We put MongoDB on AWS for a specific project. It's easy to use.

If something is wrong on the cluster, then you need to contact the support team. The stability could be better.

I used MongoDB for about a year.

It's okay. It's acceptable. The stability could be better.

If something is wrong on the cluster, you need to contact the support team. At first, when we were trying to build a cluster.

Neutral

We rated MongoDB a seven out of ten.

I have used the product to store and manage data operations.

MongoDB is simpler to learn and implement than traditional SQL solutions like MySQL.

The product's data consistency could be more efficient than traditional SQLs.

I have used MongoDB for a year while working on a project. I was using the latest version.

MongoDB was stable and much faster than traditional SQL.

There were five MongoDB users in our organization working in different teams.

I was working with MySQL before. I decided to use MongoDB rather than other products to learn something new. It is easier to learn and implement than other databases.

The learning process for initial setup is easier compared to traditional SQL. Someone without prior experience working with it can learn the process quickly.

MongoDB is an open-source product. We don't have to pay for the licenses.

I advise others to evaluate a lot of other databases. MongoDB worked fine for my project. However, I would have selected a product besides MongoDB to improve my skills and learn something new.

I rate it a six out of ten.

We are using MongoDB for unstructured databases.

The most valuable features of MongoDB are we have a lot of documentation and SQL-based applications that run on it.

MongoDB could improve by not having so many updates and different versions.

I have been using MongoDB for approximately two years.

MongoDB is stable, but there are always a lot of patches and upgrades every now and then.

MongoDB can scale but you will need to pay for the upgraded solution.

I have not contacted the technical support of MongoDB.

The initial setup of MongoDB is simple and the implementation took approximately one day.

We did the implementation in-house.

MongoDB is a free solution. We wanted to have high availability and the subscription cost was quite expensive because the basic one is free and then when you want to have some other replications or other features you will need to pay money. Overall the solution is expensive.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate MongoDB a six out of ten.

We use MongoDB for big data analysis. We are also developing monitoring tools, and if our data grows big enough, we'll use MongoDB to silo out the data structure.

In general, I am satisfied with this solution.

MongoDB is fast and efficient.

Currently, I understand that they're revamping and adding a lot of features, and things are moving a little slowly. The performance could be faster.

I have been working with MongoDB for a few years.

I'm not sure which version we're running, but our technical team is keeping up with the latest developments.

MongoDB for now is stable enough.

MongoDB is a scalable solution.

I am satisfied with the technical support.

Previously, I was not using another solution. It was already in place when I joined the company.

I was not involved with the installation. 

We had our technicians complete the installation.

I believe that the licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis.

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

I would rate MongoDB a seven out of ten.

Our company uses MongoDB for various clients.

We primarily use the solution to store the databases, various user logins or log information, and lots of other things.

The solution's most valuable aspect is its ability to store and fetch. Both the processes are easy with this tool. Patching and sewing are simple.

The solution is stable.

We've found the product to be scalable. 

The initial setup is pretty straightforward.

We'd like technical support to respond faster to queries. 

I've used the solution for maybe six or seven years at this point. It's been a while.

The solution is stable and the performance is good. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze.

In terms of scalability, if you compare it with the traditional database system, it's quite scalable.

We have ten to 15 users on the solution currently.

We've used technical support in the past. The support response could be a bit faster. That would be helpful for us. 

We also use SQL databases. We use the SQL server. We've been using it over the last year. 

The installation process is simple. It's not overly complex or difficult. 

I'm not sure how big of a team we need for deployment and maintenance. 

We have an in-house technical team. They have experience installing it. We do not need integrators or consultants or any outside assistance. 

I cannot speak to the exact pricing of the solution. I don't have any visibility on those details. 

We have the solution deployed both on-premises and on the cloud. We're using the latest version of the solution. 

I'd recommend this solution to others who are curious about using it. 

In general, I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten. It's been pretty good overall and we're mostly satisfied with its capabilities. 

We are using MongoDB to store our transactions. On the front end, we developed something in Java, that fits right into the application. We do not use MongoDB's capabilities to do other operations, such as BI.

One of the most valuable features of MongoDB is it is Its open source.

I have been using MongoDB for approximately two years.

MongoDB is stable.

I have found MongoDB to be scalable.

We have approximately 200 users using this solution.

We have support through online communities, such as forums and blogs.

The installation of MongoDB is straightforward. There is a lot of documentation available and it can be installed on Linux or Windows. The implementation process does not take too much time.

We have a team of engineers that does the implementation of the solution.

There is an enterprise license and it could be cheaper. We are using the free open source version.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate MongoDB an eight out of ten.
