Overall Satisfaction with RavenDB
I own and operate a business that requires a lot of data storage, and previously have been using SQL Server for over 5 years, and I hated it. Then I found RavenDB and it is so much better than SQL server, I don't know how I ever tolerated working with SQL server. Clean UI, picking it up is a very simple, but powerful. RavenDB's simple design and meaningful documentation make it easy to get started, and its powerful query language makes complex queries easy to build.

As I have said before in the previous questions ... RavenDB has a very simple clean UI, but stacks up in its power. Though new to me, I have found it to be much easier to learn and use than my previous database - Microsoft SQL Server. RavenDB's simple design and meaningful documentation make it easy to get started, and its powerful query language makes complex queries easy to build.
