PostgreSQL Reviews

We use this solution as part of our backend to store data that is coming from the sensors. 

It is needed to save the meter data from the sensors.

It is easy to use.

It could be more secure.

I have been working with PostgreSQL for approximately two years.

I am using the latest version.

PostgreSQL is a stable solution.

We use this solution for organization's applications at the backend and it is not used directly by the end-users.

I have not contacted technical support.

It is a bit different from Oracle, with respect to security.

The initial setup is straightforward.

It was a token installation, I can do it myself.

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

I would rate PostgresSQL a seven out of ten.

We use the solution for database management and storage.

The most valuable feature is the performance.

The solution could improve the integration.

I have been using this solution for approximately four years.

I have found the solution to be stable.

PostgreSQL is a scalable solution. However, it could be better.

I have not needed to use the support.

The installation is not simple, it is more difficult than DeviceSQL. We had a few issues during the installation.

I did the implementation of this solution myself and it was more complex than MySQL.

I have evaluated MySQL and DeviceSQL.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate PostgreSQL an eight out of ten.

We use it to convert the databases. We also use it to make a request from my PMS with the Oracle-based server through the third-party interface.

We use this solution for the interface between our property management system and the cloud-based system. It works from both sides.

It is very simple to manage.

It is easy to use.

My main concern is that I can use it to connect with the interface. It is simple, it's good.

It needs more integration.

I have been using this solution for two years.

I have not explored the scalability of this solution yet.

I will continue to use this solution but I don't have any plans to increase our usage.

I have not contacted technical support.

The initial setup is straightforward. It was easy to install.

It took only one day to install, and two to three days to connect with the database.

We have a team of three, two admins, and one engineer to maintain the solution.

We had help from a company from Norway, one from South Africa, and one other from Dubai.

We do not pay for licensing.

Depending on the type of work the user wants to do with the interface I would recommend this solution or not.

I would rate PostgreSQL a five out of ten.

The solution is primarily used to develop the databases for your application. I used it personally for a college assignment.

The solution is open-source and therefore free to use.

You can do the same actions as you can with the SQL Server.

It's a standard reliable database management system.

The solution comes with an option to work in dark mode, which I appreciate.

The interface could be much better. Maybe it took a little bit longer to understand the menu options and so on. On top of that, it's a web interface. It makes it uninteresting to look at. It's not so appealing as the options that Microsoft offers. It's a separate program that works separately and you don't mess with the browser. It works okay, you can do what you need to do, however, it's not, in my opinion, so professional-looking. That said, it's open-source so I can understand that they prefer to do it like that.

The installation process could be better organized.

The stability could be better. they release new versions all the time and they aren't quite as stable as we'd like them to be.

We've only used the solution for a few months. We used it for two projects. It was basically used across two semesters. We have used it in the past year.

The solution is not as stable in comparison to Microsoft SQL Server. I had some issues with a version, and I had to re-install it last year. Now, however, it's working fine. That said, they are always launching new updates and they seem to release them too early as they are not so stable.

I'm not sure if I will continue to use the solution. I used it for an assignment, and that's it. 

I did not contact technical support. I've never reached out to them directly. Therefore, I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are.

I've also worked with Microsoft SQL, and I find the product to be much more stable.

The initial setup could be a bit better. They have some improvements to do especially with regards to the additional tools they propose. That part is just a little bit messy. Other than that, I thought it was very easy to install it. It's not overly complex.

I was able to handle the implementation myself. I did not need the help of a consultant or integrator. 

The solution doesn't cost anything to use. It's open-source.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. I'm mostly happy with its capabilities.

I wouldn't necessarily recommend this product for beginners. 

I am using the solution for data analytics, mainly for ERP because we use Hadoop and Hadoop is a dependency of PostgreSQL through the platform.

We are able to create many different types of jobs and items with this solution making it one of the most valuable features.

The solution needs to improve the query, documentation, and JSON data functionality.

I have been using the solution for two years.

I think the technical support should improve for this solution.

I have previously used MySQL and am currently using it for other projects. MySQL is a little easier to use.

The installation is more difficult to install than other solutions I have used.

I rate PostgreSQL a seven out of ten.

The solution has many valuable features such as it easy to use and the interface is intuitive.

Instead of the installation agent downloading all the packages for the install, it should allow the user to download the packages separately on their own to do the install.

In a future release, the installation agent should take less time to create all the databases, especially the small Oracle databases that I was using.

I have been using the solution for a couple of months.

I have found the solution to be stable.

I have not fully tested the scalability but it has been good enough for what I have been using it for.

I did not experience any technical issues to call the support about.

The installation was easy even though it took approximately four hours. The time accumulated from downloading automatic packages from the VM tunnel. You have to download the whole package on your machine.

The solution requires a license.

I recommend this solution for small organizations.

I rate PostgreSQL a seven out of ten.

Typically, our team runs the database and then the applications, on Postgres. However, I'm not part of the development process.

The solution is quite stable and very reliable.

On the cloud side of the product, the solution scales quite well.

The initial setup is quick and easy.

I don't work directly on development, however, I haven't heard of any complaints from the development team in general. I can't speak to any features that may be missing. Our team seems quite satisfied with it overall.

It would be great if the solution offered even more integration capabilities.

We've been using the solution for the past two or three years at this point.

The stability, overall, has been good. I have not heard of issues with bugs or glitches. I cannot recall it crashing or freezing. Its performance has been reliable.

The product can scale well. However, this is mostly the case on the cloud, which more easily can scale as there are no physical limitations to hold a company back. If a company needs to scale using this solution, it can do so with relative ease, specifically if they use a cloud deployment.

We only have about ten to 15 or so users on the solution right now. On the products we produce there may be more, however, that varies. There could be a hundred or so users.

We have plans to continue to use the solution going forward.

We don't really use technical support too often. We have our own team that we can turn to, and they can handle most, if not all, issues.

We've used a few other products previously. We're also using MongoDB, or at least, we will be, in an application that we've just started.

The initial setup is not complex at all. I would describe it as straightforward and rather simple. 

The deployment is quick as well. It might have taken us about 45 minutes to an hour or so to get everything up and running. It's great.

We have a technical team or two or three people that can manage the deployment and maintenance. You don't need a big team.

We handled the implementation process ourselves. We didn't need the assistance of any consultants or integrators. It was pretty straightforward, and therefore we didn't need the extra help.

The product is a direct service, and it is free to use. There isn't a licensing fee.

We are simply a customer and end-user. We don't have a business relationship with PostgreSQL.

The solution is deployed both on the cloud and on-premises. We use more than one deployment model.

I can't recall the exact version number we are using, however, it's my understanding that it is not necessarily the latest version.

I'd recommend this product to other organizations. It's worked well for us so far.

In general, I would rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

We design it and put it as part of our system and sell the system to various airports. We've designed our own schemas, and we track events that are meaningful to airports so that they can create their reports, view statistics, and make meaningful decisions that make sense for them.

It has completely met our needs. It works, and it is robust. We haven't had any problems with what PostgreSQL does for us and the way it does it. That's why we've been using it for so long. We understand it, and it does the job.

When you get a large number of records in a database and start doing various queries, it can adversely impact the performance of the live running systems. That's an area we continue to look at and mean to improve, but it is not only because of PostgreSQL. It is also because of the way the schemas are put together, and certain events are triggered. So, it is because of both parties.

I have been using this solution for 18 years.

It is pretty straightforward.

I would rate PostgreSQL an eight out of ten.
