Microsoft SQL Server Reviews

My favourite feature of SQL is how it seamlessly integrates with all windows environments to make developing for it super easy!

the cost is very high if you have allot of users rolled out and using the software.

I like the security setup, and the ability to export databases and configurations.

The Microsoft licensing structure for SQL is a bit odd. Some options are available for dual-core but not for single-core. Why is that?

It comes with a free version. Database is secure. It's reliable.

Product support is abit slow and expensive

It supports RDBMS, so it is easy to write SQL queries in SQL Server.
User Interface is very good and its easy to implement.
It can handle large amount of data.
You can mask the data if it contains sensitive or PII information.
By Implementing Disaster recovery, at any point in time we can recover the data.

Unlike Databricks SQL, SQL server does not provide data visualization functionality.
Data Extraction is show if the table contains large amount of data.

It is economical , has most of the functionality db need to have .

If you are working with older versions of the sever it can be daunting

Great resource to utilize information securely

Sometimes their are glitches and we are booted from the server

Querying the db is easy and storage is also well maintained. Db support is also great. Overall integration to Microsoft sql server is also easy and works best

I can not think of any con for such a great database system

Great features, cross-platform, well equiped, a good search/filter system, data secured, and the permissions system seemed pretty secure.

The pricing is somewhat high, and it would run slow sometimes for no reasons, something that reports and analytics wouldn't show.

Microsoft SQL provides integrated environment for data analysis

Mainly cost, and other is complex interface

Excellent relational database management system for massive data analytics; yet, for smaller databases or projects, it might even be too much

Since it is difficult to integrate with non-Microsoft products, support for other suppliers and products is not really possible

- Microsoft SQL server is indeed a robust Database Server option. In this review, I will talk about Microsoft SQL in terms of SAP and compare it to its alternative option in SAP - the HANA Server. - When it comes to SAP ERP, our clients have two options for their database server needs - Microsoft SQL Server or HANA server. Microsoft SQL server is great option that will get the job done. Most of us consultants, have the SQL server installed in our local machines since it is impossible to install the HANA server in our local machines because of the heavy resources needed. SAP HANA requires a minimum of 32 GB ram for example.- Microsoft SQL server is easy to install especially the if you are installing the Express Version which is very light and install quickly. - I did not require much training to be able to use the basic features of Microsoft SQL server and I get a free license for my local machine if you install the evaluation version on your machine.

- Compared to SAP HANA Server, Microsoft SQL Server has less analytical capabilities but generally, Microsoft SQL is a powerful database server option in the market.- There is a bit of a learning curve involved. If you want to be able to do some complex tasks in Microsoft SQL server, you might need to employ the use of some learning material.

It works well with all Microsoft platforms

Backing up to shared drive using Legato was time consuming

Microsoft SQL Server has an activity monitor that will show any errors. I have been using Microsoft SQL Server for 12 years and I have no complaints. Microsoft SQL Server is great, as long as the user is familiar enough with it

Difficult licensing process that’s always changing

ease of use and integrationalong with support option makes it a premier product

licensing costs, be sure to purchase the correct version and edition

After getting used to this tool at my master's degree, I was able work on projects with a greater scale where advanced data analytics is reqiured

I find this tool, I do not know the exact reason but, still old school in terms the interface, I suppose it could have been more easy to navigate around.

Microsoft SQL Server is a powerful database, though its complexity can be a challenge, its capabilities are undeniably impressive.

Managing Microsoft SQL Server can be complex and resource-intensive, demanding a steep learning curve and potentially straining hardware resources, which might be challenging for some users.

I like almost every aspect of Microsoft SQL server features like creating a database, connecting relationships in ERD creation for RDBMS that allowed for a seamless database visualization of design and functionality as a server.

The UI are somewhat basic although it doesn't affect the major functionality.

I have been using Microsoft SQL Server for almost 7 years now and I only have nice things to day about it. Really happy with the product. Using it for managing data, doing transformations, writing procedure and views for front end application and many more.

Nothing to dislike about. Really happy with the product.

It is flexible, yet robust. Other storage solutions come and go, but SQL survives

It's easy to learn but hard to master, which means it's easy to get into but also easy to make mistakes that cost you.

We usually use it to keep our own inventory. We chose it because it has a corporate architecture. My favorite features are automatic code completion, creating parts such as tables and indexes without writing code, high level of authorization, multiple users working on the same data, and having a software-friendly interface.

When I first started coding, I used MS SQL Server as a database. I've been using it for about 15 years. So far, it has never upset me and there is nothing that I dislike.

Stable DB with everything you need included. Great Microsoft support. Long support of the system, up to 10 years.

There is not mutch to dislike. Only possible thing would be the price. There are free solutions out there.

The customer support and the data migration were done without any difficulty. Data migration team done our job well

Noting to say "Least" about Microsoft SQL

Its a fantastic software, super powerful. It makes it very easy to get things done. The software that you use to edit records comes with it so you don't need to purchase another software

Expensive, too much for a non-profit. We had issues with it after a year or two.

Microsoft SQL server is very efficient to use, as a developer with limited database management knowledge, I found it very helpful to get the prompts for the completion of commands, correction of syntax, and search/filter other tables for similar commands. I absolutely love using Microsoft SQL Server for database management.

Everything I noticed is great about Microsoft SQL Server, since I havent worked much upon other database applications, I found it very quick to learn and implement. No dislikes for me.
