To much stable and robust database !

  • October 13, 2019

What do you like best about the product?
I started my career on Mainframe technologies and for database was DB2. Initially I was bit reluctant to learn and felt little cumbersome as we are more comfortable with GUI/ UI interfaces. It was black and white screen with CUI interface. But our product was insurance and very complex one with huge data in it. Whenever we fired any SQL command expectation was to return almost immediately. And to process the batch jobs, security features. So eventually when I realized those points I started lovin DB2. And those products were developed 40-50 years back and that time DB2 was very popular. Amazingly today also it is working without any issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
May be the interface, installation, maintenance cost and process. It was not very fancy. Menus were to give command by interning the options. No usage of mouse. Again I think that is not the limitation of the RDBMS (DB2). DB2 point of view may be many commands are not there if we compare with today's Oracle one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I started working on the product which was designed, developed in DB2. Benefit I can say the reliablity, security, capability to handle huge data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If looking for a secured database capable to handle huge data you may consider IBM DB2. It is quite stable with outstanding support systems.

my favorite database Db2

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to work with, takes little maintenance, has lots of tools readily available to access the database.
What do you dislike about the product?
I truly can't think of anything that I dislike other than I think many more should hear about and know about Db2. I've worked with a lot of databases and by far Db2 is my favorite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I consult and many of my customers use Db2. I greatly appreciate seeing continued advancements to improve Db2. The most recent updates were the biggest since the intro of AS400.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is easy to work with, reliable, low maintenance, easy to learn, lots of tools available to work with Db2.

THE Database

  • September 07, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Db2 is a rock solid database offering lots of functionality. IBM provided an XML data type early in the market and provides now temporal tables and time travel SQL since years again being one of the first offering this. The optimizer has always been cost based and was improved over the years. With BLU also column oriented tables are supported providing great speed for analytical front ends. The community edition is free and can be used in production enviroments - a good point to start.
What do you dislike about the product?
The market penetration and the reputation is not reflecting the real product - that is a pity. The educational material is limited and it is hard to get people trained on the current version of the product. Getting people with Db2 skills is hard as a result of the things mentioned.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Db2 is used for many data Warehouse solutions providing a solid base for analytical queries and applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be open minded and give it a try it is definitely worth it.

Ibm2 is the first database i have used which has GUI. So as a first GUI database, it is quite easy to understand. Best database to work with at your initial stage.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be better at performance. Sometimes it feels slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Umm, i just used it for practice and it is very good for us to know the query language as well as gui.

great database solution

  • August 18, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
IBM db2 is a very complete, fast and versatile database option, there are many reasons why I choose IBM db2 as my database. Whether for its great versatility when running on a wide variety of operating systems, such as window, mac, Linux, etc.
Another point in favor of IBM db2 is its security and data management. In general, it is an excellent, easy-to-use, high-performance, scalable and flexible SQL engine for big-data, with advanced data query functions and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
IBM db2 was my main option as a database, but after a while, I saw many disadvantages that make me think about replacing it.
-Conversions between databases become tedious at times.
-Technical support takes time to respond.
-The price is a bit high compared to other database software.
Those are the main features that I dislike about IBM db2, in short, it needs to improve some aspects to live up to the best.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me in the creation of databases and data analysis tables.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend it for its easy-to-use, high-performance, scalable and flexible SQL engine for big-data, as well as its versatility. But it is not one of the best in the market, so I recommend researching and looking for the database software that best suits you.
