> Neo4j is a solid product and is doing a good job.

My personal opinion, based on my experiences using Neo4j, is that Neo4j is not a solid product. (At least not by my definition of "solid".) I think it has good marketing but falls apart in a lot of real world use cases.

I understand that the point of the blog post wasn't to bash Neo4j, but it does demonstrate quite well the fact that a multi model approach can be quite competitive or even better in terms of performance for many use cases.

Given Neo4j's historical and ongoing issues, if the multi model DB solution also happens to be a more mature and stable one then there is no front on which Neo4j wins.
