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.
HPE - Neo4j experience
What do you like best about the product?
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.
Good and fun!
What do you like best about the product?
Connection, relationship discovery, apoc, data science applications.
Profiler is a life saver.

What do you dislike about the product?
Bloom doesn't let me create new node types / relationships unless they exist currently in the graph.
The neo4j dekstop / web app performs quite terribly when loading data above a certain limit. Even if it's not in the node visualization tab. Not sure what the threshold is, but it's fairly frustrating (I assume it's due to unoptomized js).
Option to return only what I queried for in the graph at first load... For example, I might query (n:Person)--(m:Movie) and get back the relationships in the visualization by default, which is generally great, but sometimes I want to quickly see if I'm missing something in the return statement. Although I understand that adding that feature may cause more confusion than it's worth!

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Modeling IoT device data and the device's relationship to actual entites along with the operational context. The performance has been good and, honestly, allows me to get away with more than I probably should. But I won't complain about that.
Great on reads and modeling needs improvements writing at scale
What do you like best about the product?
So really like the property container. Modeling relationships between various types and the flexibility. Unlike SQL, Neo4j is able to do much more complicated join queries at scale.
What do you dislike about the product?
Write performance and locking are the most problematic. The pesimistic locking is very restrictive if that was configurable that would be a huge improvement. Also the clustering is much more the application's responsiblity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems that Neo4j helps the most with is modeling a dynamic application with dynamic reporting/dashboaring. It allows our customers to proactively add more properties and queries easily.
Great database, but there are still some issues
What do you like best about the product?
Neo4j has an opensoruce version. Support is good and the community around this database is pretty big. Cypher QL is easy to learn and use. Neo4j browser is user-friendly and has a lot of setting for both new and experienced customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are still some annoying bugs, like queries that can't be terminated by the kill command, in one of the recent versions I couldn't have more than 1 tabs open at the same time, etc.....
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using Neo4j at work to store information about product catalog items and their relationships. We've got millions of nodes and hundreds of millions of relationships in our catalog, and Neo4j has proven its ability to easily handle it.
Best-In-Class Graph Database With a Gentle Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
I have been working with Neo4j professionally since 2020, primarily for the construction of knowledge graphs for regulatory reporting. Lots of things to like about the platform:
* Plenty of quickstart tools - particularly the Bloom browser, the desktop client, and Python tutorials make it easy to pick up as your first graph DB. It's a very accessible tool.
* Rich connector ecosystem for APIs, data sources, and data science capabilities.
* Speed of execution (vs. solving the same problem in a relational database).

What do you dislike about the product?
Not many negatives here. The managed offering (Aura) could be a bit more backward-compatible - as it stands, it is VERY forward-looking and as a result, it does not support older Neo4j versions (==3.x) or the bolt:// protocol. It would be good to see Neo4j 3.x on Aura, as this is the version that a popular OSS data catalog tool (Amundsen) requires.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Knowledge graphs - specifically, uncovering relationships between regulatory requirements/questions that are being asked by Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) regulatory bodies.
Thinking in graphs opens a whole new world
What do you like best about the product?
Coming from a traditionally RDBMS background, neo4j and graph databases have opened up new lines of thinking. The tools provided by neo4j make it very easy to get up and running quickly, and the free training programs they offer are second to none. They have well-documented drivers for a variety of popular languages.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure I can point to any particular things I dislike. It does require a shift in thinking from traditional RDBMS systems because you have to think more carefully about the problems you are trying to solve and the relationships between your data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
neo4j is helping my team and me solve problems related to complex queries in a very large data set where how different data points are related to one another is key.
