"The low cost and functionality allows us to save money on smaller database projects."
"The product is easy to learn."
"MySQL is a centralized RDBMS in itself, and you don't have the overkill of having the full Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server. It's ideal, and it helps with the developer console. It has three versions for developers. It's a very good tool for open source."
"It's easy to use."
"The access to a suite of management and administration tools that simplify tasks such as database provisioning, configuration, and monitoring."
"The product is good for tuning."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is data migration."

"The support is not that great. They're not really supporting directly anymore and relying on experts to figure out technical issues."
"They could include more advanced features like clustering and replication in the Oracle databases."
"Sometimes MySQL does upgrades on the server. When we are still using the old server and when they integrate the upgrade, they don't carry along some of the old syntaxes. The versions don't sync."
"The tool’s stability must be improved."
"Integrating business intelligence or NLP solutions would help us save time and would prevent us from having to take a deep dive. Data problems seem to multiply on the system when you interact with it. Automation would save a lot of man-hours."
