Overall Satisfaction with RavenDB

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Well, I am not allowed yet to describe how is my organization using RavenDB. My company {ALTRAN INNOVATION} is still doing the fusion process with CapGemini group, the actual RavenDB customer. So I am looking forward to get trained enough to successfully support the department using RavenDB inside CapGemini, as soon as possible.
After attending a first virtual demo, I believe CapGemini is not having any problems with this powerful noSQL database as RavenDB. I am looking forward to have some meeting soon with the colleagues developing applications (C#, Java, Python, etc.) using RavenDB.

Pros and Cons

Pros

It is a fully transactional noSQL database.
Execute queries very fast, having a powerful structure of indexes.
High level of data compression makes possible a very low space occupation.

Cons

So far, I don't know any area where RavenDB has room for improvement.

Return on Investment

Return of Investment
A powerful and easy to use manager Studio helps a lot to increase efficiency
Easy to develop applications using RavenDB
Fast to deploy applications wit RavenDB

Alternatives Considered

Apache CouchDB and Apache Cassandra

The given alternatives are also powerful and really good noSQL databases but the highest availability of RavenDB allows me/us to know it a lot better.
RavenDB is encrypted by default wherever we use it in production and it has a high level of documents compression.
