I am working on meteor JS for last two years and my experience with meteor java script framework is very good.
we used meteor.js for developing our mobile(android and IOS applications) and web application one of the main advantages we got from this framework is we have to use only one language for front-end, back-end and for database,
Which coupled with MongoDB database which stores JSON Objects, and uses java script as a query language meteor.js is very fast due to its real - time feature, which propagate data changes to client without requiring the developer to write any synchronization code.

There are very few disadvantages of meteor.js, some of we are faced are following
first one is you have to use mongoDB as database query language also there is lack of sql support in meteor.js
and also In meteor there is lack of testing frameworks which turns out to be one of main disadvantages of meteor Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

fast prototyping, learning curve, real-time by default, so easy for pwa applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cant disable front end/default page. This is so useful for a server-only application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Mini mongo (client-side mongo) is pretty cool, as is pub-sub for some applications. Doesn't scale well in other scenarios though.
It's a full client-side and server side framework that covers authentication, DB management, client-side UI, etc. I've enjoyed working with it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pub/sub doesn't scale well when there are many DB updates in a short period. The developer abandoned nice performance monitoring system (Kadira). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
MEAN Stack there is a necessity to perform synchronization between Express.js and Angular.js. also in the Node.js and MongoDB. But, Meteor JS delivers an absolute solution for producing and deploying web apps. Meteor you can develop apps in JavaScript for a web browser, application server, and mobile environment. Meteor has several built-in features like hot code reload, automatic CSS & JS minification, and reactive templates. The app is created using JavaScript so you can use the same code on both client and server-side. Meteor JS allows us to develop and deploy Android and iOS apps through the Cordova PhoneGap alliance.

Especially the asset management that allows using a glob pattern and NPM dependency management syntax matching that which is used by package.json. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Meteor publication/subscriptions are very easy to work with, allowing easy use of data manipulation, which is one of the advantages of using a full stack framework like Meteor that covers both backend and frontend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Meteor "Atmosphere" ecosystem is lacking, and lacks the robustness of library ecosystems for React, and even Angular. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very easy, and it can be deployed in multiple platforms, very powerful and it can be interested with different front end frameworks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Community support is not as big and a bit difficult to deploy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the fact that it is coming ready out of the box, almost no configuration is needed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
it might be expensive for smaller companies
you need a bit of time to get to work with this product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to learn, integration with other frontend engines like Vue and React, has support for npm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the apps get bloated due to the internal workings of the meteor Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the framework itself because of it is simply , efficient, and scalable and have ability to develop one code base for multiple platforms Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Less community on internet for help but we use documentation for the help Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's easy to learn and customize. Interestingly, on both the front and the back end we need only use one word. Good support from the family. It's easy to learn Meteor Framework, build in a unique language, and let me create more with less effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With SQL, it doesn't work well. The user community isn't too large, so I have found it difficult to find resources and content that were so necessary to address the problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
