What do you like best about Aiven for MySQL?

Aiven does all the nasty work of settin up, maintaining, and caring for my MySQL. It saves me time for coding cool things, not fighting backups. Automatic failover means that my app wil always be running no matter what heppens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aiven for MySQL?

The promised high availability configurations also become buggy and cause unexpected failures. The challenges of installation, configuration, and maintenance still lurk a perfect workflow. The cost of convenience comes at a price, and Aiven is not a cheap solution. Before diving in, do not forget to crunch the numbers, more so if your data needs are low. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aiven for MySQL solving and how is that benefiting you?

The weight of the database is removed from me by Aiven, and I can focus on what I am good at. It is giving automatic upgrades, no more mess, no more anxiety about backups, and no more fear over downtime. It is asking to having a superhero database available 24/7. It resolves the difficulties associated with database management but the whole indeed benefits are reduced by the reliability issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aiven for MySQL solving and how is that benefiting you?

Toggle and switching from one project to another used to be 3-4 steps more when I used other Aiven competitors. Having a better overview of multiple vendors require less input which saves me time and helps me get a snapshot of what needs to be resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
