DbVisualizer
Considered Both Products
DbVisualizer
Chose DbVisualizer
has easier functionality for basic db admin than SSMS; can see data immediately w/o running a SELECT statement
Chose DbVisualizer
Easy to run as a standalone application, largest sets of db drivers and very efficient UI/UX for the data manipulations task.
Chose DbVisualizer
I use DbVisualizer for direct access to the backend tables.
Chose DbVisualizer
TablePlus is a basic SQL client, which is good for non data engineers / analysts. It's good for a basic occasional SQL.DBeaver is a more sophisticated tool, that can be used by data engineers / analysts, but is lacking in features for an everyday multi database environment …
Chose DbVisualizer
Easier to use, more cost effective, and more stable and reliable.
Chose DbVisualizer
DbVisualizer supports multiple databases eleminate the need to install a specific tool for each DB type.
Chose DbVisualizer
Hands down the easiest to use and configure.
Chose DbVisualizer
I actually use all these.
Chose DbVisualizer
I like that it provides Vertica-specific built-ins (e.g., detailed projection display) and can be viewed in the GUI without executing a query.
Chose DbVisualizer
We needed an application which could connect to various databases no matter where it came from. Using Microsoft SQL, MySQL to name a few have simplified how we operate and provide reports daily.
Chose DbVisualizer
Far easier and better to manage and use than pgadmin now that they botched the implementation. I don't know how good erwin is now but it's a good example of a complete database schema management system which DbVisualizer is not.
Chose DbVisualizer
because I don't have only sql server database to manage
Chose DbVisualizer
Oracle product - clunky UI, no mass DDL or data export. Bad editor
DBeaver - setting JDBC drivers manually is a pain. Clunky UI.
pgAdmin - good for pure DB admin, but SQL and table management is clunky.
Chose DbVisualizer
DbVisualizer provides enhanced security features and better cross-platform compatibility. Also more intuitive user interface and relatively short learning time to get up to speed with all the functionality offered.
Chose DbVisualizer
We use both. SAS is easier to test strategies, while DbVisualizer is easier to pull the data.
Chose DbVisualizer
much simpler to use
more reliable connections
Chose DbVisualizer
The only time I use a product that is specific to a particular database is when I need to perform some product-specific function on that database. Otherwise, for everything else, I use DbVisualizer.
Chose DbVisualizer
Better intactions with the data inside the database
Chose DbVisualizer
DbVisualizer is cheaper but more powerful than TOAD
SQL Developer is a free, very basic tool with limited capabilities
Chose DbVisualizer
DbVisualizer was much more intuitive and supports DB connections from all of the above RDBMS services

Whenever you have to access data sources from more than one database engine provider, you should consider using DbVisualizer for the task. Switching between multiples IDE consumes time and resources (memory), and you also need to learn menus, shortcuts, etc., for each IDE, while using DbVisualizer allows you to work consistently no matter which database engine you are connecting. You can use it to simply navigate through data structures, write SQL sentences or even create new tables and views, develop stored procedures, etc.

Pros
DbVis Software AB
  • Timed queries that add their result to the result grid for every execution are helpful. Creation of graphs also extremely helpful.
  • Query history and auto-recover feature makes sure we don't lose our queries.
  • Actions like exporting grids to Excel or other tools is a very easy task.

Cons
DbVis Software AB
  • Small, but noticeable: it would be nice to be able to highlight just one column of a data output for copy/paste by clicking on the column header (a feature some of us are accustomed to from SQL Server Management Studio)
  • Is there an ability to bulk import an excel file to a table in a connected SQL Server in DbVis? If so, I haven't figured that out yet. I still largely use Microsoft SSMS to import data to our team's personal SQL Server, but can easily query that server via DbVis)
  • (I really don't have any major complaints - our company has tried to steer users toward DBeaver for YEARS, which I cannot stand. DbVis knocks the beaver out of the water)

We never had problems with it. It is able to connect to all data sources (Oracle, Informix, DB2, SQL Server) that we currently use.

Usability
DbVis Software AB
I find it very user-friendly, everything is easily viewable and the fact that I can move modules around and customize the colors and appearance of things really helps make it more usable. I also find the default keyboard shortcuts intuitive and the in-program descriptions are easy to follow and understand.

DbVis Software AB
DbVisualizer provides a good value when compared against other 3rd party products with similar features as well as products with similar functionality made by the database vendors. The user interface is good and user friendly / intuitive and easy to learn. It doesn't take too long for an experienced DBA / database developer to come up to speed.
