"If data is unstructured then you must need MONGO DB."
What do you like best about MongoDB?

It is very easy to use and its syntax is pretty much simple and easy. It reads the data from the live sources and helps in making the word cloud very effectively.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

Its output delivery system is not that much effective, every time we need to take data on excel then we can use it.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reading the data from live sources such as from Twitter, youtube comments and the data is not the same then we use this tool to fetch important attributes from the data.

"Best NoSQL database in the market"
What do you like best about MongoDB?

We are using MongoDB as our primary database. As our most of the data is in unstructured and thus not fit for RDBMS store. JSON data store, Schemaless architecture along with horizontal scaling makes it more efficient. One more thing that i loved is the support for geospatial data, it's just perfect.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

Takes up more space than RDBMS for similar data. ACID compliance missing.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helped in storing unstructured data. Horizontal scaling saved us a lot.

"The best NoSQL database on the market"
What do you like best about MongoDB?

I learned MongoDB as soon as I started my job and love it more as I learn more about it. As a database service, it provides stable, secure, available service. We implemented it across the enterprise for some NoSQL use case. It also has great data security strategy. P-S-S, a.k.a. primary, secondary, secondary data layout secures the data from being lost. That is the killer for database. Even the log server has PSS structure layout. MongoDB is also well-documented, most of the cases can be found in their document. They can even send trainers to your company if you need. MongoDB has great manager too. It can indicate the health status of your servers, clusters, connections, storage, etc. Overall, it is a great choice for NoSQL server.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

I have not found anything I do not like yet. Everything is wonderful.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

For NoSQL services. We have stream data need to be stored and analyzed.

"Easy to backup your databases."
What do you like best about MongoDB?

Easy to backup your databases. Very simple to use. Good GUI. Continuous backup of queries and oplog.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

No control on backup data. It is stored in MongoDB cloud. Cost depends on the size of the data and the amount of oplog changes.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

It provides point-in-time restore, continuous and online backup solution as a fully managed service.

"MongoDB - My Favorite NoSQL DB"
What do you like best about MongoDB?

Having a background in object oriented programming, I found MongoDB to be easy to understand from a conceptual level. Unlike SQL based DB's, it is based on BSON (Binary JSON), which allows you to create more dynamic schemas and data structures.Instead of using tables and rows, you use collections and documents, which makes sense in an Object Oriented programming environment. As part of the MEAN stack, MongoDB goes perfectly with Node.JS projects, which can be used for both web and mobile application development. Overall, it is flexible, easy to use, and with an understanding of JavaScript, very intuitive.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

Mongo may not be the best solution for running large complex transactions. You may also have issues migrating from a SQL based solution to Mongo, without careful planning. I would recommend for new projects, not necessarily legacy solutions.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

MongoDB Atlas to manage DB Clusters of cloud based MongoDB instances, along with MongoDB Compass. With the tool I am able to manage users, set up teams and set back ups. There is also various charting tools you can use for visualization services (ala Tableau or Google Datastudio).

"Mongo has the best cluster."
What do you like best about MongoDB?

It was so easy to create and handle the cluster. Also, when it comes to bring the data into the server, works really fast. The Live Migration Service is a free service that allows you to migrate data to Mongo and you should live this awesome experience when it comes to Data migration, that Mongo provides. I want to mention, as well, that you can pause the cluster, whenever you want, and the price is lower, which is great for when you are not using it. Mongo has a great Support service, all the tickets have a quick response.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

The referral program is a little bit complicated. Even though the program is awesome to motivate you to share Mongo with colleagues.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

You can create several clusters and save a bunch of information. It is great for Data science.

"A quick and powerful Database solution "
What do you like best about MongoDB?

- Easy installation and configuration - Easy Replication, exceptional read-write performance with our application. - Javascript integration. - Scalability. - Great documentation available along with educational material accessibility. - Powerful aggregations. - Works flawlessly on different OS - Windows, Linus, CentOS. - We use MongoDB as a file system, along with data replication features which is pretty cool.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

- Scaling needs some advanced experience with the tool. - Need to learn syntax since most of my team comes from Oracle SQL Background. - Unable to leverage relational DB capabilities.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

- Major performance improvements were visible when we migrated to Mongo DB. Query rendering was much quicker. - The schema-less design helps us to store large amount of data seamlessly. - MongoDB compression helped us improved network latency and the application became much faster compared to earlier.

"Easiest NoSQL database"
What do you like best about MongoDB?

It is the easiest NoSQL database. I experienced in installing Cassandra and HBase which are NoSQL database and it was Nightmare.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

I didn't reach to commercial version but It seems it is pretty expensive when a company uses it for their business.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

I tried MongoDB for NoSQL database design. Compared to other NoSQL database, I think it is easier and straightforward to setup.

"Amazing storage software"
What do you like best about MongoDB?

Mongo DB is an incredible storage software with a huge database designed for powerful, easy and intuitive documents, after storing the documents it is easy to search for them by means of the name given to them. The database of Mongo DB is known as NoSQL, which is a very useful tool.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

As not everything is perfect sometimes I lost information, and the database starts to fail once it exceeds 100 GB, although I think that very few people have reached this point, so the software in general is pretty good .

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being the manager of marketing supervision of the company Linio Group daily tasks were tedious to classify and once they were saved over time it was almost impossible to find it in minutes, taking into account that time is important in any job, the main thing is to have software that allows you a better development in your area of ​​work and Mongo DB offers the best tools to carry out all your goals.

"Easy to develop for."
What do you like best about MongoDB?

It's really easy to get up and running with mongo and most languages I use have libraries that make it very fast to develop for. It also performs very well.

What do you dislike about MongoDB?

It doesn't seem as easy to manage in cloud environments as the build in offerings. Also the GUI tools to connect to it that I have used such as robomongo are very lacking.

What problems is MongoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it to store data for micro services. I like how fast and simple to use it is especially for situations where I only need to store simplistic data.
