• Full of features and high performance. It's free!

  bitbarDecember 14, 2009

  Pros

  Easy to install Stored procedures and triggers High performance Belongs to a community, so it can't be sold (like MySQL) Royalty free even for comercial applications

  Cons

  I'm glad I don't have anything against Firebird.

  Summary

  Firebird is invisible to my customer. They don't see it being installed and running. Until 10 workstations I allow my customer use it on a non-dedicated server, many times without a no-break. I trust in Firebird. Firebird rocks.

• Up quickly, solid performance, and great support forums

  FederOnlineJanuary 13, 2009

  Pros

  Installing Firebird on any Linux system is simple from a distribution or source. It is easy to manage and support once installed. There are solid Open Source project that support it (IBPP C++ Interface, ODBC, ADODB, etc)

  Cons

  Documentation (other than the Firebird Book and Support Forums) is a bit scattered. A Wiki would be nice.

  Summary

  It is free. It works. It is solid. It performs. I have it working on a 500 MHz Solid State embedded PC and a multi-CPU server with gigs of RAM and disk. It is extremely flexible. All the things I need to create projects and products to make a living.
