What do you like best about the product?
It seems to be a solid and robust database system and we don't really have a lot of issues with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure that the language packs are as robust as they need to be. They are also expensive for under-proven software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MarkLogic as an operational data store to build search products on.
One of the best products I've ever worked with
What do you like best about the product?
It's reliable, well supported by an expert support team, quick to develop with, provides wholistic features(search+database+application), supports both xml and json.
What do you dislike about the product?
Though MarkLogic strives hard to provide the best tools, compared to other databases, it still lags in open source tools due to the fact that it's an expensive proprietary database. Also currently http is the only protocol through which code running in MarkLogic can talk with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently we're using MarkLogic as a one stop shop for all the metadata about our products, assets, etc. This metadata is being served to customers who need the metadata in a specific format(be it xml, spreadsheet, json). Also we use MarkLogic for developing internal portals which require these metadata as well.
Benefits
Being able to develop webservices using XQuery helps write complex functionalities that run close to the database layer and ends up performing very well. The amount of time it requires to bootstrap an application/database using MarkLogic is very less compared to other databases and programming languages. MarkLogic is viewed very highly in our company due to the quick turn around by our MarkLogic Support Team for new application development as well as enhancements.

Marklogic is a centerpiece in our architecture
What do you like best about the product?
MarkLogic is both a repository and a search engine. It handles XML data natively.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the search / indexing capabilities need improvement. Its physical architecture is not ideal for cloud deployment (although it works just fine).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MarkLogic as our main search & retrieval engine for all of our content
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider both your search requirements and your retrieval requirements when evaluating tools in this space. Consider you content enrichment requirements and your performance / latency requirements for getting new documents indexed and searchable
Architect and Developer for custom systems using MarkLogic
What do you like best about the product?
The system is very robust and with version 8 has removed much of the arcane manual tuning that was needed in older versions. If you are storing and manipulating XML documents, it is very simple for the amount of power it gives you. MarkLogic has excellent documentation and support ecosystem. There are usually other people who have encountered similar issues in the past and their development mailing list is active. Their recent integration with REST, JSON and node.js has substantially simplified building integrated systems on top of MarkLogic. With the recent additions of Active Directory and JSON as first-class-object, it is possible to build a system from the ground up very quickly using only MarkLogic and world-class front-end tools like AngularJS or EmberJS. MarkLogic's support for fully ACID transactions is very rare in the NoSQL market and their reliability is significantly better than anything I've encountered in the open-source NoSQL ecosystem.
What do you dislike about the product?
MarkLogic has moved somewhat away from the pure XML world and has not kept up to date with XQuery 3.0, XProc, XQuery Update Facility, etc. They seem to prefer to enhance their proprietary features rather than implement additional standards compliance into their product. I would like to see them improve some of their basic functionality like normalizing their API and refactoring some of the more confusing areas (HTTP FORM handling, native file read/write/delete, etc.).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used MarkLogic as a Document Database in a NoSQL environment to support Fortune 500 customers. We have build custom web-content-managment, component-content-management, document archival and publishing. We have also used MarkLogic as a centralized metadata repository to integrate with governmental databases for purposes of normalizing data governance across a large civilian federal agency.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MarkLogic is best utilized by a team that is knowledgeable in XML / XQuery technologies. Despite their inroads in JSON and REST, the learning curve for people without significant XML experience is quite steep. However, if you have invested in XML / XPath / XQuery / XSLT knowledge, then you can be up and running in MarkLogic very quickly. MarkLogic is a great alternative to non ACID compliant distributed databases like DynamoDB / Cassandra / MongoDB. The enterprise version is pricey, although for personal projects, education and non-profit uses they do offer substantial discounts and the community edition still supports the important NoSQL and ACID features.
Powerful document repository
What do you like best about the product?
Native XML interface and support for XML Query and Javascript. High quality XML Query documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Adding indexes can be very time consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Document storage and search. Because MarkLogic is a document database, it is well suited to our content, which consists of billions of legal documents.

NoSQL databases have a long way to go.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I don't like, but they can have a better marketing approach.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing the information properly
What MongoDB should have been
What do you like best about the product?
MarkLogic has the best features of a document-based database - convenience, concision, composability - with enterprise features that real businesses - professional grade support, ACID compliance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Document-based databases will always struggle to compete with the queryability and stability of traditional RDBMSes. As it turns out, SQL is a tough query language to compete with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MarkLogic is a really great way to build stable prototypes where you don't what the schema of your data will end up looking like. This is how I've used in the past.
Marklogic is an Enterprise Document Database which support all the latest features reliably.
What do you like best about the product?
Marklogic is a very Stable product and reliable for transaction based data storage. Its searches are very fast and it support latest trends in NoSQL databases. I believe its one of the pioneers in newer features being introduced in a NoSQL Document Database. The latest of its hottest features is its Semantic based searches. More than the product i think the support offered by their team is really great. I have never waited for more than 24 hours to get my answers on any queries. Some of its legacy features are security , geospatial and backup and restore features which are time tested and more robust. Its newer features other than Semantic are bitemporal, Hadoop support, AWS support etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think more people need to be made aware of this awesome product. Its less familiar. More easy integrations with Legacy systems should be created.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it to solve healthcare data analysis and processing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try to determine where the capabilities of this product has the highest value in your organisation.
Versatile and stable product
What do you like best about the product?
The efficiency and quick response from the search engine is pretty amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
For bigger clusters, we have noticed issues while performing complex searches. The complex NEAR searches would surrender and throw errors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Works as a search engine and document indexing with multiple language search support. Has been a very stable and reliable product.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a stable and reliable engine, MarkLogic would be your answer.
