MongoDB began its life essentially as a JSON database for node.js. Very easy to use for JavaScript developers, it struggled with basic durability until the addition of the WiredTiger storage engine. After many years of preaching that transactions were unnecessary and advocating for extensive data denormalization to compensate, MongoDB capitulated and added transaction support a few years ago.
Couchbase was originally developed by merging Membase, a fork of Memcache with on-disk durability, with CouchDB, a somewhat experimental document database written in Erlang. As such, it has a relatively tortured development history. It has adopted a relatively tortured transaction model as well.
