## Reviews

### "A useful, yet untidy tool" — 2.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *9 July 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very simple to use and undoubtedly reduces the amount of physical memory used
> 
> **Cons**: Some security issues and occasionally non-loading user interface parts make me doubt its reliability
> 
> quick to deploy and simple to implement, although certain users may want to be aware of some UI and security concerns.

### "An excellent database for mobile projects" — 4.0/5

> **Jonathan Alexander** | *1 June 2022* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about this product or database is how easy it is to integrate with mobile projects in the creation of applications and its easy portability, as well as performance, agility and little space in its implementation that makes it unique when it comes to of mobile application projects
> 
> **Cons**: That for very large projects it is not so robust handling so many transaction threads
> 
> I have used this database for the development of mobile application projects and for the prototyping of web pages, which makes it a very good database, easy and agile when manipulating data

-----

### "Power in the simplicity" — 5.0/5

> **Jacek** | *5 May 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's very simple to use and lightweight. Typically does not require a separate server (it could run on the same server as a web application). It's quite handy that the database is contained in one file, which then can be backed up easily or transferred across machines. It's quite fast for certain uses.
> 
> **Cons**: Compared to other RDBMSes, it's very simple - which means that it's lacking certain features when it comes to scalability - it performs well in simple scenarios, and in complex ones - it just won't (unless you are very lucky and it's e.g. a case when there is only a single connection).Moreover, it lacks certain security features like user management and access control.
> 
> Works very well in simple scenarios\! It might be a great choice for small applications that require low maintenance and easy setup

### "SQLite - compatability at it's best level" — 3.0/5

> **Chaya** | *3 April 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SQLite is a light weighted data base which could be embedded with any software. Due to the light weightage of the product the data base is more popular In mobile application development. With it’s light weight it is also fast. SQLite is almost 35% faster than any other file system. SQLite is easy to use and there is not special installation or configurations needed to be done in order to use the product. All user have to do is download the libraries and run them in the computer. It is compatible which is why the product can be used with many programming languages with out any issues. Users are given a chance to extend their data base in future by adding new tables or new columns to the existing tables which is a great help for the ongoing projects.
> 
> **Cons**: SQLite is not a multi-user platform where the users can handle concurrent writes. There for SQLite is not good for intensive applications with rapid data logging. If the system has concurrent transactions where lot of users keep accessing the same set of data simultaneously then SQLite is not a good choice for the project. SQLite data bases are restricted to maximum of 2GB in most of the cases.
> 
> SQLite has become more and more popular among the users because of its easy installation and easy accessing . As it is compatible with most of the programming languages and its light weight it is more popular among mobile application developers

> 
> I've been using SQLite to store databases and manage them easily. It's a fast and light tool, which helped me in several different cases.
