What do you like best about Prisma?

By using the browser to handle databases rather than having to install a toolkit, I can access the database from any place and on any device with just my login information. Given that it makes use of a type-safe query builder, this method not only gives me universal accessibility but also enables me to quickly address any application-related issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Prisma?

There is room for improvement in the documentation on query options. Despite the large number of query options, finding them might be very difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Prisma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Convenience of accessing and executing operations on my cloud database through an endpoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

These are some advantages of prisma.io

Which beats its competitors Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Prisma?

It has a leaning curve. Not easy without any prior knowledge.

Performance in complex queries is bad. It takes a big hit then.

Data migration is a challange and will require custom solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Prisma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Prisma's strong typing system ensures that data is handled in a type-safe manner. This reduces the likelihood of runtime errors related to data type mismatches, enhancing code reliability and maintainability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Prisma?

When I used Prisma with typescript, the table's schema looked too clean and easy to understand. As a developer, I found it very convenient to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Prisma?

They don't support MongoDB. Mongo is one of the best NoSQL databases; they should have provided support with this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Prisma solving and how is that benefiting you?

In one of our projects, we wanted to deliver ASAP, and all the senior devs were busy with diff projects, so we gave the job to the newcomer. Prisma is very easy to understand and easy to set up. So it really helped us to deliver it on time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Prisma?

I love that I can create a SQLite DB schema with all relations, foreign keys, etc a breeze! Migrations made easy. They Query language is very robust and the Slack community is fantastic and responsive. The CLI and CLI documentation covers a lot of cases including solving known issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Prisma?

The documentation on querying options could be a little better. There are tons of query options available but really difficult to find. Mostly have to rely on the Slack community to get detailed information on this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Prisma:

The support is limited to the Slack community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Prisma solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was able to deploy a production SQLite database with very little setup. The CLI provides all the necessary commands to handle migrations, resets, and helps solve issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Prisma?

The recently developed Prisma migrate feature is awesome and helpful. We can maintain a single source of truth, the schema and all changes can be migrated to the database safely Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Prisma?

Prisma loses for some complex query like if I need to calculate the rank of a row, that we need to calculate using raw query but that they will fix very soon, I believe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Prisma:

The best TypeOrm I can suggest to somebody for Postgres, user friendly and well documented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Prisma solving and how is that benefiting you?

The one problem that I am solving with prisma is database migration. It helps us as a Typeform almost completely, and Prisma also provides a studio to visualize data and relations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Prisma?

Database management in browser instead of installing toolkit this way i could access anywhere and on any computer just credentials are required.

It saves me time for resolving any issues for my application as its a type-safe query builder Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Prisma?

Setting up multiple records from another table to my record in current table sometimes hung up the service because of that action.

Whenever I face an issue I couldn't find a proper support from Prisma.There should be some session management if incase of idle actions should logout the user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Prisma:

If you are beginner or not a big fan of database but you require for applications Prisma toolkit has a simple understandable user interface and provides excellent scalability for your applications at cheaper cost so I suggest others to go ahead with Prisma Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Prisma solving and how is that benefiting you?

comparative to other database toolkits they required a lot of configuration and to integrate with my application I need proper drivers to be installed this means a lot of trouble but with Prisma i could simply create a service and fulfil my database requirements easily.

Other benefit i really felt good is i could access and perform actions in my cloud database with help of end point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
