From Oracle Database to PostgreSQL | TrustRadius

Overall Satisfaction with PostgreSQL

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use PostgreSQL as our main database platform, for our cloud solutions, GIS applications and all new products. We used Oracle Database for many years before, but it is now only a bad memory, from high costs to low quality resources. PostgreSQL is superior, more simple but robust and a complete database solution.
