DbVisualizer Reviews

You can do business without connecting directly to the database

No negatives anything, you can do transactions easily

You can do the query drawing in a very short time and you can edit.

Its reliability is unmatched by any other product we've tried.

To be honest, nothing. DB Vis is a great tool.

DB Visualizer helps us to confirm testing results, and provides a quick and easy way to develop result sets of data for our users.

I love the simple way of interacting with the data. I find DBVis the best program to directly add/remove/alter Data in Databases. This is very handy in early development etc.

Furthermore, I love thet it integrates with mostly all Database types.

I use it all the time when it comes to working with DB!

Sometimes the UI is a bit unintuitive. But with some time you know where to click

Sometimes building complicated relationships between tables, DBVis is the best help ever!

Also when creating tables it is very handy!

I'm a Linux user and the fact I can utilize DBvisualizer to connect to a variety of systems makes my job easier. I'm in a unique development/consulting type roll with my own company and I would on a vast array of different systems.

I haven't figured out how to configure the show timeout for connections.

My last project involved connecting an odd MS Access database to a sql server and DBVisualizer not only supported my work, but made it easy.

Compatibility with any database, strong editor features, nice/useful monitor module, cmd line interface with a few dedicated command, good import/export modules, frequent patch releases, drivers management, good support even with the lower license model

Lack of some (minor) db-system commands, settings for import/export cannot be (until now) fully saved, some limitation in sharing the same settings among users

Try it, Use it, enjoi it... Very likely if you think at a needed feature for a db-client, DbVisualizer has already got it!

We work hard in ETL projects and database management. DbVisualizer is the only tool we need for the latter tasks and anyway it can be integrated with powerful ETL tools like pentaho or Talend.

We can rather always avoid to use proprietary db-clients like Visual Studio or Workbench, so it's easy to skill people (only one tool, not many)

We've been using DbVisualizer since 2005, and it's still one of the best tool we have.

* bulk operations at the DB schema level - export all tables to a single CSV

* quick search field in result is good

* filters on artefacts

* quick SQL generator tools for a table

* SQL editor autocomplete could have more features. I use an IDE to write complex scripts.

* A code formatter would be nice

Analysizing, creating and management RDBMS databases

There are so many aspects of DBVisualizer to highlight. If I had to pick one aspect, it's the incredible flexibility to use it with just about any data source.

I have no dislikes when using DBVisualizer

I am a professor teaching a Graduate Database class. I haven't taught graduate databases in over 15 years. I am compeltely rewriting the case with a foundation on real world problems. I wanted a product that was easy to get started with, but had enough room to grow into a professional tool. The course does a deep dive into very complex SQL and I wanted something that students could build queries visually, but also show how the SQL is coded.DBvisualizer handles all of this.

Importantly, when I touch new software, almost without fail, I find strange edge cases. I like teaching my classes showing what can go wrong in the real world, so these edge cases are near and dear to me. I reported the few issues I found with DVVisualizer and they were immediately responsive. In a case or two, it was simple user error. A few were bugs and where possible they showed me workarounds until they fixed the codebase. Most recently, it was a feature that was missing and not only did they say they would fix it, but it would be in the next build, within a few weeks.

As a professor, I got the pro version for free, often, from other companies, that comes with substandard support. This is not the case with DBVisualizer. I am 100% satisifed with the choice I made and highly recommend this product.

It's easy to set up a connection and has good exporting functionality. I like how you have multiple tabs and can run multiple queries simultaneously.

To unlock the true power you have to purchase the premium version (which is fine and most likely by design).

Its nice to be able to export data without copying and pasting to Excel, where returns within the strings can cause issues.

The overview and all the functionalities.

It would be cool to be able to work with Python, Bash etc.

Connecting to databases easily and write SQL and dbt code.

The one DB tool that does it all.

Very easy to setup a database connection.

Awesome that one can just export the connections and other info for use on a reinstall etc.

Greate at exporting DDL and data.

Use it every single day.

Great that it starts supporting mongo db.

It can be a little heavy on memory usage. Not the best at retrieving massive datasets. This is really nit picking....

Seen some issues on linux when resizing on a 2nd monitor.

The general easy at which you can maintain create query data on practically any database.

I love the graphic query tool. for quick multi join on tables it the best.

Helps in dev, uat, prod databases and one can easily identiy the right DB. Helps to NOT make mistakes.
