What 31 Arbolus experts think of SQL

SQL Server’s NPS distribution is strongly positive, with most scores at 8-10, indicative of high satisfaction. Renewal intent trends positive, particularly for those embedded in Microsoft environments, with very few unsure or negative responses. Stickiness is high as the majority report usage durations of more than one year, and only a minority are in pilot or early stages. Key expert feedback praises integration, reliability, and mature tooling, while the most frequently cited weakness is the licensing cost relative to open-source alternatives.Overall Customer Sentiment: Positive
