What do you like best about Couchbase?

The NoSQL feature combined with the great performance make Couchbase a powerful tool to fast development, is easy to use, and I use it every day for my recent projects. It is an easy integration and ease of implementation, and I'm experimenting with existing projects like Nodejs or PHP and the documentation is easy to understand. I don't try Customer Support because I think this is for an easy tool, I do not need that :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couchbase?

I don't like the documentation code background, I blink and have a problem with my eyes and the background color bothers me after about 10 minutes of reading the code in the documentation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Couchbase?

Couchbase is a NoSQL database that stands out for several reasons, but what I like best is its hybrid architecture, which combines the best aspects of both relational and NoSQL databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Couchbase?

Couchbase's powerful features, such as Multi-Dimensional Scaling (MDS) and Cross-Datacenter Replication (XDCR), can make the initial setup and ongoing management complex. For organizations without dedicated database administrators or significant expertise in Couchbase, this complexity can lead to steep learning curves and potential misconfigurations.
