Great workgroup RDMS at a fair price

Scott Oelfke

Vice President Product Management

LMKR (Oil & Energy, 51-200 employees)

Score 9 out of 10

Vetted Review

Verified User

Pros and Cons

Good performance with relatively large data sets - its cost-based query optimizer is particularly robust
ANSI SQL compliant
Supports T-SQL
Scales well between the desktop (single user) and client/server installations supporting 50-1000 users

Small user base makes finding information difficult.
Third-party vendors don't support native connections to SQL Anywhere (TIBCO, ESRI). Although direct ODBC connections can be used successfully.

Pros and Cons

SQL compliant
ODBC drivers available
Simple implementation

Seems a lesser implementation of SQL than T-SQL / SQL Server
Desktop version (vs. enterprise version) seems underpowered, like Access vs MS SQL rather than a desktop edition of an enterprise database
Fewer experienced resources available with Sybase skills

Pros and Cons

It queries large set of data and has a speedy run time.
With the rate at which data is going with Internet of All things, SQL Anywhere cuts across database applications outside of traditional data centers in which department data's are stored.
The amazing thing about SQL Anywhere is the relational standard it maintains as a structured language that works across any DB. Yes, you might need to adopt some changes within the environment DB you are working; however, its important to know SQL itself to help archive data goals.

I think it should be more user friendly for non-technical users.
More functional functionalities should be added to the object explore when working with a table to transform data/manipulate data.
