## Reviews

### "FaunaDB is my goto document database." — 5.0/5

> **Thomas** | *7 December 2023* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: FaunaDB really outshines the competition on so many levels. The wide array \[{no pun intended}\] of configurability, geo-located data, easy migration, query performance logs as well as scalability along with a smooth interface equates to a very dev friendly database model.  And one I will use again in the very near future.
> 
> **Cons**: In the early stages, the 'explore' stage, FQL was a small learning curve, but that was entirely through personal choice. GraphQL would have worked equally well.
> 
> FaunaDB have grown over the years, fine tuning along the way. Everything that makes FaunaDB great has got better overtime. The flexibilty of query language really helps being able to write and deploy quickly without having to worry about the usual inconsistencies. If migrating from another source, then all I can say is sit back and enjoy as it was an absolute breeze.
