We invested a fair amount of time into a Dgraph-based solution but had so many issues with it that we had to migrate away. We couldn't get basic things (like database dumping and/or reimport, or some large queries) to work at all reliably which scared us away from going with their enterprise product.

It seemed neat from the outset but I can definitely see why they might have problems finding paying customers after getting hands-on with it.



When I first looked at dGraph, I was unimpressed. The interfacing, documentation looked like it was meant for their internal team.

A few well-known Open source projects lack user-centric product thinking. I felt dgraph had this issue.
