Sequel Pro and Ace are much simpler but they have dangerous defaults such as writing updates without confirmation.

SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) developers should take a look at DBeaver to see how a real management studio application should be. In DBeaver you can tell that the developers really think about the way DBAs and database developers use database management tools. With SSMS, …

We found that sharing scripts and generating DDLs from Snowflake's IDE was a bit too much of a chore. Because of this, we began looking for alternate products. We found DBeaver, a free community tool, and tried it out. We've found that it is very intuitive and easy to use, I …

DBeaver is more user-friendly than the other tools I have used. But security-wise, I don't trust it as much as other tools.
Chose DBeaver
MySQL workbench from MySQL only supports MySQL databases and it only provides basic functionality. On top of that, the user experience could be quite confusing for first-time users. SSMS from SQL server doesn't support inline editing nicely. The view for inline editing and view …
Chose DBeaver
dbForge Studio has a more intuitive UI for die-hard Windows users. It's also easier to use sorting and filtering in their grids. However, that one lacked the script generation and schema editing tools our development team needed to use on an almost daily basis.

Great tool for developers to use to dive into their databases. Not so great if you are a die-hard Windows user with expectations of a SQL Management studio replacement. This is the less suited tool for people looking to just view and edit data. If you need to generate any scripts or import and export data, this is the tool to use.

Well suited to a team working directly in the physical modeling space.

Not a lot of users have DBeaver so fewer resources are available online to help you if you have any issues. When I was trying to figure out how to create my own ER diagrams, it was a little tough to find resources

Some of the other Tools are no longer supported, and DbSchema is much less expensive than most of them.

Return on Investment
  • Positive Ability to manage DBeaver and query ad-hoc quickly
