Very useful database that solves some complicated use cases for my enterprise
What do you like best about the product?
Neo4j focuses on the relationship aspect of data storage, which is convenient for the use case of my enterprise where we are trying to track the assets on our network and the relationships between those assets. Also, the suite of tools available speeds up development significantly. Spinning up a docker container and trying out data models and Cypher queries locally allows for quick developer growth for learning the Neo4j landscape.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much that I dislike about Neo4j other than having an open comparison between the benefits and downsides of using a graph database to solve certain problems vs others. Neo4j is great but it might not be ideal for every use case so transparency around when and where to use it would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my enterprise we are trying to track all of the assets in our network and the relationships between those assets in near real-time with historical relationships.
ease of use for db admin
What do you like best about the product?
intuitive setup and database management.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is focused on graphs so if you want something else then it's not for you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
asset tracking for a major railroad is a feat and neo4j helps accomplish this with ease
Deans Slanderous Review
What do you like best about the product?
The active responses from developers on the support forums are very helpful. Community engagement is critical. The docmentation and support guides are very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The docmentation and support guides are very useful but do not go very in depth about the more sophisticated uses of the CYPHER query language forcing you to resort to support forums.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Neo4j to track assets throughout our railroads, providing a flexible real time feed of DB that is not constrained by normal relational database boxes.
Neo4Joe
What do you like best about the product?
Neo4j is a total solution space for me. Whereas some engineers use Excel to play with an idea, I feel Neo4j is superior tool for capturing reality and making modifications that ultimately result in a flexible working model. And then all operations can happen on the data in-place. So for a hackathon it`s a total cheat to start with Neo4j as a foundation. But equally, Neo4j has changed the way I think and has opened my mind to what is possible, and that`s because when you have the fundamental building blocks of nodes & edges, the sky is the limit. Oh, and cypher. It`s basically python in a database--really expressive, and powerful and fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
Okay, this isn`t really a dislike. It`s more a wish. I want it to be even easier for me to build simple web apps...just a javascript front end...no middle layer...but I would wish for a user authentication + authorization layer. So often I want to show something like an interactive chart, custom designed and publishable to the web.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Neo4j in a risk computation application. It helps to not have to ever send the data out of the database...but to just do the compute in-place. And it`s fast and easy to assess and explain how a partiular risk score is generated.
Neo4J Review
What do you like best about the product?
Very fast lookup with multi-level nested queries, especially against relational databases and especially no-sql. The developer ecosystem is robust, and the community is helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The helm charts are not in the kubernetes standard. The defaults in said helm charts are not sane. Operational guidance as to installation on kubernetes is lacking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps with the data-type sprawl and aggregation, with a non-schema approach, many data entities can be aggregated in an efficient way to make data easy to understand for all.
Tinkering over the last 7 years
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to get started. I like the concept of graph in general. I like the tools that come along with Neo4j for visualization and browsing.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface to the Neo4j Browser sometimes feels clunky and hard use. Specifically, the scrolling and pinning feel awkward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The experience that I learned about at GraphConnect using the GraphQL Toolkit was exciting. I'm not yet using it, but look forward to.
Really great experience as a developer and user
What do you like best about the product?
neo4j provides us implement a graph database to store and process data in a fast and efficient way. As a developer neo4j provides all the capabilities to ease into the graph and cypher universe, with a great training program and even better community.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can not really say that there are things that I dislike about neo4j, mainly the enterprise grade loading capabilities area not that clear and obvious but that might be a individual issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
neo4j provides us a platform to build out a knowledge graph of all the data in the company and use this to provide additional value to our customers via custom APIs.

Ahead of all graph databases in many aspects:
spark connector, advanced cypher, graphql library
Scalable, performant, reliable

What do you dislike about the product?
costlier as compared to other graph databases
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ingesting data through spark
All connected
What do you like best about the product?
Easy and fast to deploy in productions. Many features to try and implement.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing in this moment. I only have used Db features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Knowledge graph
Using neo4j in academic and commercial settings
What do you like best about the product?
I have tended to work with ontology data over the years. This data does not lend itself to RDBMS. Neo4j provides an excellent resource for storing the data, querying, and building applications on top of ontology data. I have used the community edition while working in academia with much success. There is just enough information on the web to get something up and running without direct sales support. I have moved to a commercial setting recently. We are exploring how to use neo4j to add an important element to our query engine.
What do you dislike about the product?
There seems to be a lot of pain involved in upgrading the neo4j system between versions (ex: 4.1->4.2->4.3). The upgrade path is brittle and very error prone. Simplifying this process is very important. I do not think the upgrade path should necessarily allow users to "skip" versions as part of the upgrade, but I think some of the steps could be automated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I want to build a graph of biological relationships (ex: genes, proteins, etc.) on top of flat file data from our clients. The goal is to augment their biological data with publicly available data to provide comprehensive insights into their data.
