MongoDB - My Favorite NoSQL DB
What do you like best about the product?
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 the product?
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 the product 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).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MongoDB has great training tools and courses you can enroll into. I highly recommend signing up for the courses, which can take 5-8 weeks to complete. Great tools and resources, which I was very satisfied with!

An effective solution to manage user data
What do you like best about the product?
SQL cannot handle every use case. The nice thing about MongoDB is the ability to store large blobs of data in easily accessible ways, in order to grab this information quickly and efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is *very* particular for its use case. The important thing is to make sure you know what you're using it for, and trying to change DB structure after initial setup can be brutal. Having the data remote means it's harder to diagnose and fix issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing user data accessible by a user ID - save data
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I see a lot of people trying to decide between SQL and NoSQL DB structures; both of them have their uses, and both use cases are absolutely valid and necessary. Be mindful about the way you want your data structured, and then having the right tools for that. The Cloud Manager makes it easier to monitor issues and to keep track of your usage.
Mongo has the best cluster.
What do you like best about the product?
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 the product?
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 the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
You can create several clusters and save a bunch of information. It is great for Data science.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would higly recommend the M10 cluster.
MongoDB Cloud Manager Easy To Use
What do you like best about the product?
switching versions is very simple and smooth and it takes a very short time. I also like that I can see all of my different database servers in a very short time. A good backup strategy is a critical part of any database management system. MongoDB offers many options for backups and recovery/restore. Along with a good backup method, it is very important to have multiple replicas of the database. This helps to restore the database without having the downtime of even one second.
I also found that reporting and real-time are too much useful especially to determine server problem, that helps me a lot

What do you dislike about the product?
On the size of Data cost effects.
Do not have store procedure application logic in the MongoDB.
Slow restoring process.
Sometimes for larger databases, the backup process can be very resource intensive.
The backup process can increase the load on the server because of these reasons so you should run the backup process during the nights or non-peak hours.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used MongoDB Cloud Manager for point-in-time restore in our system. For us, its a best continuous and online backup solution.
