I currently use it to manage databases of several internal web development applications of the company's personal and computer department. It is a versatile database manager. It is easy to use and install. And, because it is relational, it is very easy to locate information, export data, and make changes, among others. It does not require much induction for certain users to use it for some activities.
Pros
The main advantage is that it is an open source app, so you have the free version, and if you want the paid version, the cost is very competitive.
It does not require a team or many resources to be installed and used.
It is a good application to access databases on the internet because it connects quickly, it is very fast and safe.
Cons
I do not recommend it if you require a more robust database or for applications used by the organization with a high volume of information since it is not efficient.
Many of the utilities are not documented to improve the performance or user experience.
Likelihood to Recommend
It is not appropriate to use MySQL in those cases where you have robust applications that are used throughout the organization and that handle a very high volume of information. But if you have small web applications, few tables, and a low data volume, it will work perfectly. It is very fast.
