What do you like best about the product?

Although I am not currently running on the Linux platform, I have always found it to be very intuitive, secure, and efficient. phpMyAdmin is a straightforward and intuitive interface that makes database creation and management extremely simple. The Apache webserver/MySQL combination is highly efficient as it does not use a lot of resources to run. For that reason, I consider it to be lightweight and faster than some of the other options available.

What do you dislike about the product?

Not everyone has access to a Linux server, so the casual user misses out on the benefits of using one. Although I have no issues with Windows servers, Linux would be my preference whenever available.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am currently developing a variety of desktop applications that now have the ability to access multiple databases from a single location. This gave me the ability to have far more reusable code in my projects.
