Chose dbForge SQL Tools
I am very satisfied after using this tool. It is a full-stack tool that includes rich features that can be customized set of functionality as per your need. by using this tool:-
  • Increased our productivity rate.
  • Provides speed up your development work so you can focus on other …
Chose dbForge SQL Tools
dbForge SQL complete stacks up nicely against the competitors I listed based on a number of factors including, but not limited too, speed, price, scalability. On the speed side, I'm specifically referencing the ability to write large chunks of code very fast which ends up …
Chose dbForge SQL Tools
SQL Complete appeared to do what was required. It has a very short evaluation period. We still have our day jobs to do, and hence can not dedicate the time necessary to understand and work with the product. You get bombarded by the salespeople (until they get your money!) who …
Chose dbForge SQL Tools
ApexSQL is another tool that was tried but dbForge performed better.
Chose dbForge SQL Tools
Redgate SQL Toolbelt is 10 times the price for similar functionality. ApexSQL Complete is not as user-friendly as dbForge.
Chose dbForge SQL Tools
I still use the Redgate products, but only because I was using them before I invested in SQL Complete. I have not reviewed the dbForge versions.
Chose dbForge SQL Tools
Redgate has some great tools for database work, but ultimately what fit best for my needs and use case scenarios was dbForge SQL Complete. I felt like I had to have multiple Redgate tools installed to achieve the same thing as having dbForge SQL Complete installed. They're not …
DataGrip
Chose DataGrip
I think it blows away mysql workbench hands down. Workbench does have more functionality when it comes managing the mysql instance, viewing performance etc. Navicat is ok, it might be better for new database develoopers. I stumbled upon DataGrip cause it came with jetbrains …
Chose DataGrip
One place for all the connections and uniformity of use and interaction
Chose DataGrip
DataGrip provides a single UI for many DBMS platforms, instead of using one for each. Because of that, you can migrate things between platforms using the tool and "look across" all databases at once.
Chose DataGrip
DataGrip is the most widely used software for simplified data management; we can know what is missing and what is leftover. The interface is straightforward and with a lot of security in its use of the system. All this has been its plus point.
Chose DataGrip
DataGrip makes it easy to access and manage multiple databases locally and remotely, simplifies everything, and has powerful integrated features and resources that allow you to visualize and analyze data from a single platform.

dbForge SQL Complete is well suited for professionals that have to write code all day. In my role in the business intelligence department we are writing SQL pretty much all day. Having a tool that helps us do that faster, in a cleaner way is pretty awesome and something that pays for itself quickly.

It is undoubtedly one of the best database management programs. It dramatically simplifies database management and administration. Its extensive support for various database engines is a point to highlight when we talk about DataGrip; you will like having such a powerful resource much as we do.

Pros
  • SQL complete allows you to create custom snippets that allow you to store frequently ran queries in shortcuts. The code can be populated within seconds!
  • Another great benefit is custom aliases. If you frequently reference the same tables over and over again it gets tiresome to retype the aliases. Storing these can make your code more consistent and save time.
  • SQL complete will also highlight the metadata within your database. For example, if you start typing an insert statement you populate code for all the field names by pressing the tab. This is a real-time saver for wide tables!

Perfect other than a way to handle saving and re-using queries. A simple/better way of creating a pool of queries for each project or database connection would be very helpful. It is not bad now, just could be a better. I have used Navicat for MySQL in the past it had that feature. It could save all your queries to the cloud and you could use them on any device.
