Remind me of that one time when they went berserk on every tooling vendor using the name « Mongo » in their product name :

RoboMongo,MongoGUI etc... they all received a legal notice to remove the name mongo from their product.

This was probably one of the most evil thing have seen in the open source industry .

Most of those vendors were open source with paid premium features or donation.

After receiving their legal notice most of those vendors deprecated or sold their project to a company feeling betrayed by Mongo.

As a result Mongo Compass became the de facto GUI for MongoDB and is advertise as sold with MongoDB Enterprise.
