Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft SQL Server
We use SQL Server to data mine and report on data for all departments including finance, production, shipping/receiving and purchasing. We are constantly studying our data trends to help us run our business proactively. Many other departments request data trends, etc., that may not be available in the ERP application. We are able to retrieve this data using SQL Server.
- Excellent Speed
- Backup/Restore fast
- Automated processes work well
- Data encryption
- Security
- Fuzzy SQL logic
- The data stored is worth its weight in gold.
Oracle is quite expensive so unless you run a very large company then SQL Server is probably the best bet.
