Pros
  • Excellent & optimized performance.
  • RavenDB provides storage as default JSON format.
  • One of the greatest .NET client APIs with scalability, resulting in a shorter experience curve.
  • Very easy to use interface.
Cons
  • Developing methods is challenging if developers are unfamiliar with the accurate simulation approach.
  • It does not allow you to replicating, or authorized access without first acquiring a license.
  • The lack of evidence of tracking records in the enterprise systems raises several concerns about RavenDB.

Pros
  • Document Database - no Object-Relational Impedance Mismatch
  • ACID support that is optimized for performance
  • Can be easily integrated into automated tests (unit tests)
  • Easily configurable via C# code
  • Comes directly with RavenStudio - no SSMS or SQL Developer required
  • In general low footprint when it comes to memory and disk consumption
  • Useful safety nets for new developers - e.g. by default an exception is thrown when you make too many requests within a session
Cons
  • Configuring the JSON Serializer was a little bit hard in one project
  • Creating custom indexes from several documents can sometimes be a bit cumbersome

Seems to be customizable for pretty much any need one may have

Pros
  • fast connection and data serving
  • making data readable and understable
Cons
  • I think the docs could be improved, and guides added for some main use case (like integration for SPA, serverless, etc.)
  • I believe the studio interface could be simplified
