A great open source RDB tool which works perfectly

It's easy to use, fast (I have not encountered any problems so far), it is well documented with plenty of tutorials online for beginners as me; I am using this database system in my master thesis about statistical analysis methods used by insurance companies - hence its importance! However there are some features that could be improved such us automatic backups or better documentation regarding how data can get corrupted/lost when doing an import from another DBMS into monedb like Oracle has done through flashback tables etc..
But overall very good software if you need something really simple but reliable at low cost compared other databases outthere!!

Pros

The installation process was fairly straight forward &/or quick enough which helped greatly during our time crunch period here before dissertation defense submission date ; ) Also all basic functionality works fine without issues whatsoever including importing excel sheet files directly within their proper table structure while also allowing multiple user logins per account simultaneously via password protection scheme ! Excellent support team too : )

Cons
