It's amazing how many features you get out of the box. The plans with redundancy are also cool because you get full access to the slave as a read-only replica, this means you can run heavy select queries without putting load on the main database. There is a very significant "it just works" factor to it, which is not something I would imagine myself saying about a database provider so easily. > > **Cons**: They are not the cheapest Monitoring/alerting options were a bit lackluste, but this has improved recently. ----- ### "title" — 3.0/5 > **Mikko** | *23 August 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Cons**: Not being able to copy from one gb to another easily or automatically > > cool ----- ### "Good sofware for Database management" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *8 March 2023* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Good software for automating database operations, has good features to facilitate connections, completely secures data, and offers a free trial. > > **Cons**: Sometimes problems occur in copying operations, this platform needs to be updated to increase work efficiency. > > A good program that saves a lot of time. ----- ### "It's great. Everything just works; setup was effortless; customer service is responsive and helpful." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 October 2017* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The best thing are the no-downtime migrations and upgrades. The setup was quick and easy and since then no maintenance has been required. Customer service is great and pro-active. The dashboard works well. > > **Cons**: As far as I can tell there's no way to set a separate billing email. It would be nice to also see in the dashboard what's taking up most memory and disk space and to be able to set up alerts, such as if there are queries that take too long to execute. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/168136/postgresql?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/168136/postgresql) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
