"Flexible, High-Performance Database That's Easy to Use"
What do you like best about Arango?

Arango DB offers a great deal of flexibility. Its query language is straightforward and easy to grasp, making it accessible even for those new to the system. The performance remains strong, even when handling complex relationships, which adds to its appeal. Overall, I find it to be a very versatile database solution.

Unique ane multiple model database where everything is access using just one query.

"Flexible and Powerful, But Not Without a Learning Curve"
What do you like best about Arango?

It lets you work with documents, graphs, and key-value pairs in one engine, without needing separate databases or complex integrations. This flexibility simplifies architecture and boosts performance for applications that require mixed data models. The built-in query language, AQL, is also powerful and intuitive, making complex queries feel clean and readable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arango?

Learning curve can be steep for newcomers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ArangoDB provides an all-in-one managed graph database solution"
What do you like best about Arango?

We recently transitioned from a self-hosted version of ArangoDB to ArangoDB Graph (their managed offering), and the experience has been smooth and efficient. The ArangoDB team was helpful throughout the migration process, providing clear guidance and timely support to address our questions and ensure a successful transition.

ArangoDB itself provides a database that supports all the basics you'd expect from a graph database system, and a lot of convenient functionality like a unified query language that can handle both graph and relational-style queries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arango?

Because of the unified query language, there is a degree of lock-in, but this is true of all database systems if you take advantage of anything other than the most basic features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Arango cloud is a brilliant hassle free offering"
What do you like best about Arango?

The mixture of document, search and graph has made our decisions easier. We can limit our stack to use Arango and not have an explosion of vendor systems for each purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arango?

Sometimes you require to load subgraphs inmemory to do intense computations as AQL can be a bit strange to work with. Maintaining your own can take additional resouces but using arango cloud ensures the experts take care of it for you. There are not enough connectors to BI tools and ETL tools so you need to write them yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Graph Rag done with Arango DB"
What do you like best about Arango?

Arango DB was suggested to me by my seniour as it's open source and provide a great platform for graph databases, It was very user friendly for a graph database, it was very easy to create vetices for the graph visuallise them in my local container and there after making edge definition and connecting them saved me so much time for initial POC with graph RAG. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arango?

Documentation for the DB can be better with a section of website dedicated only Documentation in details i found myself going website to website finding the things i needed for my use case other than that it was really good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"a perfect match for our modelling use case, complete db solution with unique properties"
What do you like best about Arango?

Unique and invaluable multi-model database where everything is accessed using one simple query language.

No more syncing with relational dbs when you need those capabilities.

Very friendly GUI with easy install and upgrade procedures that can be very simple to maintain. The GUI allows data exploration and analysis as well as query debugging in-place.

Very humble resource footprint, it is a 300MB C++ "rocket".

Excellent performance with many ways to improve and control it.

The Arango Team are all good people and are nice to meet and work with, they all are "clued in" and you do not get that offshore support feeling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arango?

Clustering stability, management and performance (scaling) may need some work.

Database-side triggers were promised for years but not there.

Locking mechanics may be further improved (and I see they are).

Some recent GUI changes are not always for the better.

Enterprise Support could be more responsive to medium and low priority cases (should take [much] less than a year, SLA need more enforcement) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Complex AQL is way easier to reason when compared to Complex SQL"
What do you like best about Arango?

The best thing about ArangoDB, by far, is its query language. It is incredibly easy to onboard new engineers, especially those without a background in backend development or databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arango?

If using only to be a transaction database for a simple CRUD app, you can find better pricing with other databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arango?

nothing as such but expanding community support and resources, such as tutorials and forums, would help users troubleshoot issues more effectively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
