### "Good for small scale work"

February 27, 2021

5.0

It is a very good software which not only supports basic DDL, DML operations etc but also have the functionality to create views, triggers etc. It also support complex database operations such as joins and subqueries.

Pros

Very easy to use, even a 10 years old child can use this software to write and execute the SQL queries.

Cons

This doesn't support PL/SQL. You can't write stored procedures, functions, cursors etc. This is good as far as you want to use it for small projects.

### "simple and gets the job done"

October 14, 2020

5.0

Once you get used to the product, it will get the job done. Getting used to it might take some time.

Pros

MySQL is well documented, widely used, has a great community, and just does whatever you want it to do. Sometimes it is very important to just google something and come across tens of guides on how to do it.

Cons

It might be a bit complicated at first. Sometimes, you try to do something straightforward and just can't get it done because it needs to be done in a less simple way.

### "Gets the job done"

December 16, 2018

5.0

Pros

This software allows me to easily work with schemas and SQL queries. It has good error detection and makes things user friendly.

Cons

The adjusting capabilities of each component of the window could be implemented so certain parts could be hidden from the screen. This is important so more of the screen could have room for the code. Additionally, starting up mySQL always led to connection loss half of the time, so I'd have to reconnect it manually.

### "An Excellent Tool For Coding Beginners"

June 24, 2020

5.0

Overall, MySQL makes me feel comfortable in making changes to coding/sequences and makes implementation simple and quick.

Pros

As someone who does not come from a coding background but has gained some coding skills, MySQL has been an excellent tool in which to learn. While I do not do coding full time, I do minor coding fixes, and being able to "drop In" with this software is a great asset.

Cons

The only issue I have found with MySQL is that it might have a more responsive customer service team as many issues when using this software are time-sensitive.
