Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft SQL Server
Microsoft SQL server is the official database management system for Microsoft, and it is a very reliable tool. Our team has a platform for analyzing city infrastructure which has multiple instances and a DBMS is crucial for managing all of the data. We use Microsoft SQL Server to check queries before publishing them to the live website. The tool is dependable and fairly straightforward to use, even for someone inexperienced with database management.
Pros
- The tool is scalable and able to handle large amounts of data.
- Microsoft SQL Server is compatible with many platforms and languages.
- It is reliable and has the backing of a large and well established company.
Cons
- The performance and speed of Microsoft SQL Server could possibly be improved.
- Better tools for monitoring databases and better interface for these tools would be helpful.
- Easier ways to create complex queries would make the tool even more user friendly, for instance drag and drop style tools to create queries.
- Microsoft SQL Server is one of the backbones of one of our primary business platforms and a necessity for our RDMS.
- The tool is reliable and the platform has been up and running since it was set up.
Microsoft SQL Server stacks up pretty well - it is well established and has a large userbase. The main reason we selected Microsoft SQL Server over any other RDMS was because of its well established place in the market for such tools and large number of users (easy to hire people familiar with the platform).
