### "Firestore Review"

July 29, 2022

5.0

Overall I am extremely satisfied with Firestore as the method calls are easy to learn and it has a great integration with Firebase.

Pros

Firestore is extremely easy to get started with for beginners. It provides a self-explanatory user interface which shows the no-sql database clearly. One can get it up and working within a day with no issues. It has been my go-to database for mobile apps due to it's hassle-free and flexible implementation.

Cons

It might need more resources to guide users on more advanced features like security of the database, as new users will not be able to set up a robust database without any help.

### "Good potential, bad execution"

March 27, 2023

4.0

Could be one of the best databases around, but lacks too many features to be called a database. There are some signs of recovery, but we are still far from a minimum level of functionality.

Pros

It's easy to use, and there are a lot of SDKs for many languages.It's scalable, you don't have to worry about performance.

Cons

You cannot schedule an automatic backup.There are no aggregate functions (no sum, no avg..), just count now in "preview".You can't change location.

### "Best backend and database solution with caveats"

April 22, 2022

5.0

Firestore is still largely for testing purposes if you're a small business. Only enterprises would have the resources to maintain something like Firestore and manage scalability. But hopefully that's changing.

Pros

Robust, super flexible, blazing fast, unlimited possibilities, and probably the most reliable backend and database solution ever.

Cons

Deployment, development and customisability are not exactly beginner-friendly. Also, no easy way to manage data and maintain integrity in the structure. Its biggest strength (flexibility) is also its biggest weakness.

Reason for choosing Firestore

Very generous free tier
