Reviewer scorecard
“Too expensive for what it offers. Plenty of open-source alternatives.”
“Type-safe database queries with auto-generated client. Prisma Migrate and Studio round out the developer experience.”
“Solid execution. Does what it promises and the DX is clean.”
“Some performance concerns at extreme scale, but for 99% of apps the DX and type safety are worth it.”
“Interesting concept but the execution isn't there yet. Give it 6 months.”
“Prisma Accelerate (edge caching) and Pulse (real-time) expand Prisma from ORM to data platform.”
