One of the best aspects of YugabyteDB is its ease of use, fault tolerance, scalability and compatibility with popular APIs like PostgreSQL and Cassandra. YugabyteDB its the ability to provide strong consistency guarantees while offering horizontal scalability, enabling developers to build highly available and globally distributed applications without sacrificing data integrity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One potential drawback of YugabyteDB is that it may require significant hardware resources to operate optimally, especially in large-scale deployments. This can lead to higher infrastructure costs compared to traditional single-node databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

YugabyteDB is 100% compatible with PostgreSQL. It was easy to migrate our PostgreSQL workloads to YugabyteDB. Our main issues with PostgreSQL was the ability to scale, YugabyteDB helped us overcome these obsticales.
YugabyteDB also works great in the cloud and is cloud vendor agnostic, so we don't have to be tied to a single cloud provider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
YugabyteDB is a relatively new software and industry adaptation is low, so it is hard to find system administrators who have the knowledge and expertise with YugabyteDB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1st the idea of using postgres-code for the front-end. Which makes migration + learning-curve Easy. 2nd the use of the Raft-Protocol to build a Resilient back-end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some minor items: The concept of separate master-processes is possibly a downside. Manageing "master lists" via the CLI could/should be automated better. Also, insights into the system could be better if some of the concepts (nodes, masters, tservers, tablets, replicas) were exposed better via SQL. The web-guis are ok, but not the ideal interface for a data-centric system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Yugabyte Cloud has built-in high availability and fault tolerance features that ensure your database remains up and running despite hardware failures, network outages, or other issues. This was my best feature of YugabyteDB Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Limited Community Support: While YugabyteDB is gaining popularity, it still has a smaller community compared to other popular databases like MySQL or PostgreSQL. This means that it may be more difficult to find answers to specific questions or get help from the community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

None, everything works really well on our system, it seems that yugabyte has already built with good design in mind for the customer, i believe it will reach much bigger audiences Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
YugabyteDB, the high-performance distributed SQL database for building global, internet-scale apps. It is built using a unique combination of the high-performance document store, auto sharding, per-shard distributed consensus replication, and multi-shard ACID transactions (inspired by Google Spanner).
YugabyteDBserves both scale-out RDBMS and internet-scale OLTP workloads with low query latency, extreme resilience against failures, and global data distribution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
adjusting to the performance tuning for distributed query optimizer for work loads migrating from legacy RDBMS requires deeper knowledge and expertise. this can be a learning curve for some teams Automation for self managed clusters on cloud service providers can be improved for easier adoption.

I like most the distributed nature of YugabyteDB and its high data storage capabilites. DBaaS - Database as a Service.
Another great thing is yugabyteDB is open source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing. ACID compliance and maintaining distributed database is really a great thing.
It requires deep analysis to find any issues.
In my opinion, it is getting better everyday. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is still a need to make sure that there is a proper understanding of the system which the yugabyte university helps to bridge the gap and it is relatively new. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to use for performing activity from the browser itself...along with access to CLI. Can handle large amount of data very easily. The customer support service they provide that is very quick and better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In terms of backup and restore, older versions are not directly compatible on AWS. Have to use workaround to make things working. On latest versions this have been addressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
