## Reviews

### "Used it for a small python project, and It was great" — 5.0/5

> **Mohamed** | *18 July 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's in the name, it's very light and easy to run, but what I like most is the interface, it's simple and doesn't need a learning curve.
> 
> **Cons**: Some features aren't available, like some sql commands and also when a lot of people are updating the db, this may cause a data crash.

### "No server required, used for standalone application and less configuration" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *25 April 2019* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SQLite is very faster then other database as performance wise. we are using SQLite for mobile application and desktop application. Mose imp feature i like in SQLite is at the time of deployment on production it not required any space. SQLite is lightweight. select query is very faster in standalone application.
> 
> **Cons**: There is no reporting functionality in SQLite.  At the time of multiple insert query perform in queue that its goes slow for some time. There is administration in SQLite,so its very difficult to manage for multiple user.
> 
> We are using SQLite for java and android application. SQLite is use for small and mid level organization as well because its cost affordable for any one. There is no required to back up every time because SQLite make a file for backup .

### "Very Basic SQL engine for iPad" — 2.0/5

> **Drew** | *9 August 2018* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Compatible on multiple versions of iOS across my environment. Works well with app it was designed to work for.  Pretty stable and predictable performance. Management GUI is excellet.
> 
> **Cons**: It lacks some very basic features most mobile SQL engines would have. Stuff like importing DB's from external apps is just non-existent.
> 
> This is a budget choice for SQL on iOS if you're building some sort of mobile app that requires databasing. If you're looking for extensible support and lots of features, this ain't it. If you need basic databasing and are working to keep costs down, this may be a good choice, but I wouldn't recommend it outright.

### "The perfect landscape to train and test SQL" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *6 March 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: About as simple as it gets -- as the name suggests.  Made learning SQL easy knowing I wouldn't be affecting my own database.
> 
> **Cons**: I truly enjoyed using the product although I never use it anymore.  It sits dormant on my computer now that I have a grasp of SQL.
> 
> Integrates well with SQL learning tool.  Followed many guides in my quest to learn SQL and almost all suggested SQLite.  This is mostly for training and testing.

### "Great lightweight database for simple use cases" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *6 June 2022* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like how easy it is to use SQLite. It allows us to have a database backend without the usual set up and configuration steps needed for more complex RDBMS.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't really have anything I dislike about SQLite. It does its job well on its intended use cases.
> 
> Overall, SQLite allows us to build tools more rapidly. We've had a productive overall experience with SQLite.
