Considered Both Products	DbVis Software AB Al Bodansky Staff Data Engineer in Engineering at Stride Health (Insurance, 51-200 employees) 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 … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose DbVisualizer Easier to use, more cost effective, and more stable and reliable. Incentivized Helpful? Kaito Tonooka Solution Consultant in Sales at OpenText (Information Technology & Services, 10,001+ employees) 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. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose DbVisualizer because I don't have only sql server database to manage Incentivized Helpful? Tomas Fischer Project Manager in Information Technology at CST Corp (Information Technology & Services, 11-50 employees) 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. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User 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. Incentivized Helpful? Lisandro Fernigrini BI/ETL Developer in Information Technology at OZ (Information Technology and Services, 201-500 employees) Chose DbVisualizer Although it may not have engine-specific features that SQL Developer or Management Studio have (or any other specific client IDE), most regular tasks can be achieved from DbVisualizer no matter the database you are connecting to. This reduces the learning curve for most … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose DbVisualizer DbVisualizer is more user friendly, more visually appealing and allows me to work more fluidly. I feel like the UI is more intuitive, and the regular updates are very nice. I have not found any other product like it that feels as pleasant and easy to use. Incentivized Helpful?
