The ease to create the database structure including the table relationships, DataPages and quick deployment with little coding. I like the authentication protocol which makes the software very secure.

Pros: easy to use, helpful videos, live/free trainings were excellent.

Overall Caspio is a great platform hands down. They offer a great service and is highly customizable and recommended for larger companies with a big budget.

There are lot of tutorials available with lot of troubleshooting page and customer care is the best part over here they are very friendly and responsive.

And the support is generally pretty good. Basic apps and workflows are pretty easy and intuitive.

Features: Caspio has almost everything we require to complete business solution applications. Pricing Model: Clear and competitive pricing model.

The easy integration into websites and other platforms.

The sales people there are horrible and dishonest.

My overall experience with Caspio has been excellent. In the past, I have used Caspio to build an integrated set of applications for a Statewide startup program.

It includes almost all features of a good database management system with sufficient security options. It also integrates well with other applications and existing business processes and data.

With the help of Czar Zurich Placente, we have been able to build this system in a few months with ease. Czar has been so unbelievably responsive and professional throughout the entire process.

The team assigned to manage our transition was caring, courteous and totally focused on a successful implementation of our project.

There should be a multiple check box feature, where the choices can be pulled from other fields. Also, the rules for conditions are very limited.

A huge pro is the variety of features and abilities that the software gives the developer. Similarly, the customer support and library of helpful resources is not lacking whatsoever.

The platform is inconsistent in implementation which slows the learning curve and frustrates development.

Offline functionality is a huge upset. It is problem where we have considered moving to other platforms.

In my opinion, there is no better cloud database product in the marketplace. Caspio is simply the best.

The reminder feature helps in getting tasks done before the reaching the deadlines. The integration feature helps in syncing the data from numerous cloud apps.

I love how you can develop apps using no coding at all. On top of that, if you want to customize further, you can use custom code to develop anything you want.

I can't recommend her enough. She is a huge asset to the Caspio team.

In this respect, Caspio has played out an important and critical role by offering  a reasonably priced and powerful platform to them.

A Canadian pleasure to receive Caspio's help, service, security & support.

Its user interface made it simple to create and deploy powerful online applications. It was also an excellent platform for rapidly developing and publishing data-driven webpages and web applications.

But ok, bugs is for everyone, what really is unacceptable is the total lack of support and collaboration.

Impressive customer service on that front but not so much with testing of updates/patches.

For me learning how to use caspio was very easy but what I loved the most was the way it integrated with my website.

After setting up, modifying, implementing, and now maintaining the database I needed to build, I am very happy with this software even with the learning curve.

We liked the flexibility of this software to build out solutions in the way that met our custom needs. This transcended the capabilities of existing products in the marketplace for our needs.

Oh the customer service both on chat, email, and phone, is a cut above the rest. I don't know how Caspio manages to always be there for me.

His knowledge of every aspect of Caspio has been amazing.

Designing datapages is also quite easy and only requires a minimum of learning time.

Then if you ask to negotiate they are not available. Once you are tied up with them they not only deliver less value, but they are rigid and unavailable to collaborate.

There are a ton of training videos and documentation to walk you through using the software. I also love how changes are seamless and take place in real time.

Ultimately a large amount of time was spent figuring out how to cut out pages and combine features, killing user experience.

Extremely simple to use with very robust architecture that makes this 100% reliable. Databases run very smoothly and I am happy with the level of security.

Thanks to its popularity, it has great documentation and provides a fairly standard database management experience.

Ease of use in installation and administration. Great tools are built for MySQL (MySQL Workbench being a great one).

Some error messages are so weird then the actual problem. It gives sense of insecurity at some points.

I am pretty happy with this great piece of software which make database handling pretty easy.

Excellent value for its (free) price. Low footprint makes it perfect for lower end / virtualized systems.

Overall, I would say that our experience with MySQL has been good since it has been reliable and solid for hosting our data.

I like how this software works, the ability to use it for the back end to websites like joomla and wordpress. The way it stores data is amazing.

It is very strong on data integrity with rich features of the transactional database to enforce full data integrity.

There is no way to stop a query in the Admin tool. Instead, you have to kill the MySQL process to stop the query.

It's a great tool to build SQL databases on and especially their WorkBench platform, which does a fantastic job of simplifying the process.

MYSQL is already integrated with Cpanel and other utilities like it, there's no real alternative and its pretty good.

SQL Error messages do not show exactly where an error occurred in a given statement which can be confusing.

Some errors thrown by the server are very unclear and it's difficult to debug the SQL query.

MySQL is excellent relational-database system, it is feature rich and has great community support. It can be relied on from the smallest to the largest projects.

Syntax took some learning, syntax errors sometimes unclear as to what the error actually is.

During the backup process, the database is blocked. Can’t stop the running query, have to kill the process.

It is most popular RDBMS and provides a great stability and performance. It has  many Database engines which provide great feature for different types of databases.

The best is that's an open source, reliable, cost-effective, and easy to manage.

Great integration with PHP and most languages. Great community support.

Easy to install and integrate it with your frontend. Best suit for a light mobile app or web application.

It has the best community. We resolved our all issues very easily.

The software is easy to use and quite intuitive, even for new users. Saving query-snippets for future use is super helpful, saving you time from writing commonly-used queries from scratch each time.

What I really like about MySQL is that the performance is great, also it is very popular and many companies use it.

I like the rock solid reliability that mysql offers. I also like that it has quick start capability, high availability and on-demand scalability.

Easy to use with tech stacks like LAMP. It is easy to interact with and it allows seamless importing/exporting of SQL Databases.

It is free for non-commercial use and the community development for MySQL has been great. Any questions and doubts will already be solved on stackoverflow.

You don't have any type of support, which may be bad if your intention is to use it in a critical application.

Ease of use, regular scheduled backups, great customer support. In addition, it is secure and is the standard for relational databases.

MySQL is a scalable database management system, which enables organizations to securely record, update and manage data in compliance with GDPR, PCI, HIPPA and various regulatory standards. Features include data masking, audit, de-identification, real-time monitoring, provisioning, patching and authentication. 

The ACID-compliant solution comes with a query analyzer, which helps developers gain visibility into query activities and execution, identify problematic queries and filter out specific issues such as full table scans and bad indexes. Using MySQL Workbench, professionals can perform database modeling, develop queries, configure servers, migrate databases and automate backup and recovery. Administrators can use the Enterprise Firewall, its intrusion detection feature to block SQL injection attacks and prevent data loss. 

MySQL also helps developers set up custom warning thresholds for collected metrics and track configuration changes. It is available both as open-source and on annual subscriptions. 

MySQL Products include:

MySQL HeatWave, our fully managed database service, for OLTP, OLAP, & ML workloads.

MySQL Enterprise Edition for delivering business-critical, enterprise database applications.

MySQL Enterprise Edition for ISVs, OEMs and VARs who want a proven, low cost, embedded database.

MySQL Benefits include:

Ease of use: Developers can install MySQL in minutes, and the database is easy to manage.

Reliability: MySQL is one of the most mature and widely used databases. It has been tested in a wide variety of scenarios for more than 25 years, including by many of the world’s largest companies. Organizations depend on MySQL to run business-critical applications because of its reliability.

Scalability: MySQL scales to meet the demands of the most accessed applications. MySQL’s native replication architecture enables organizations such as Facebook to scale applications to support billions of users.

Performance: MySQL HeatWave is faster and less expensive than other database services, as demonstrated by multiple standard industry benchmarks, including TPC-H, TPC-DS, and CH-benCHmark.

High availability: MySQL delivers a complete set of native, fully integrated replication technologies for high availability and disaster recovery. For business-critical applications, and to meet service-level agreement commitments, customers can achieve Recovery point objective = 0 (zero data loss) and Recovery time objective = seconds (automatic failover)

Security: Data security entails protection and compliance with industry and government regulations, including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation, the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, and the Defense Information Systems Agency’s Security Technical Implementation Guides. MySQL Enterprise Edition provides advanced security features, including authentication/ authorization, transparent data encryption, auditing, data masking, and a database firewall.

Flexibility: The MySQL Document Store gives users maximum flexibility in developing traditional SQL and NoSQL schema-free database applications. Developers can mix and match relational data and JSON documents in the same database and application.
