Solid and flexible Delphi components for MySQL and MariaDB access

Connecting my Delphi app to a MariaDB database on my webserver is key to my business. MySQL Data Access Components does that well.

PROS

The components work. They are both powerful and flexible. I don't know of any bugs, and support is good when I do need help.

CONS

The Help could be a bit better. But, if I have questions, they are quickly answered on the support forum.

MySQL Data Access Components

Simply put, I like to use it and it makes my work a lot easier

PROS

Just the fact that this software exists is a big plus. The good description in the manuals

CONS

From my point of view, there is hardly anything I could complain about. The price could still be a bit cheaper, since it is a subscription process that comes to a not small price in the long run. Possibly one could make special favorable prices for long-standing customers/users. Similar to a price scale according to user years. e.g. Update after 5 years of use x% Update after 6 years of use y%.

Devart MySQL Data Access

I would highly recommend this component to anyone. Devart support and upgrades to the product are a definite plus.

PROS

Being new to the Delphi world, this component was easy to integrate into my Delphi Project. If I had a problem, it was easily and quickly resolved by the tech support.

CONS

At this point, I have none to report for this product.

Reason for choosing MySQL Data Access Components

I have used other Devart products and the support has been outstanding. (LiteDAC, dbForge Studio for mySQL)

Fast MySQL DB development

This component is one of the main pillars in our wholesale business. We communicate with MySQL databases used for logistic procedures.

PROS

I realy love the plug and play way of using this components. I mean the visual binding to labels for example or just a simple for each loop in the data set. It's just simple and super stable in all it's needs

CONS

Backwards incompatible versions when i work with older versions of Delphi (on other dev PC)

Reason for choosing MySQL Data Access Components

cross platform compatibility

Thanks a lot. Your feedback is valuable to us.
