    BMC AMI Cloud Vault provides immutable cloud storage, allowing businesses to create secure, unchangeable copies of critical data for rapid recovery in the event of ransomware. >For organizations looking to move away from expensive Virtual Tape Libraries (VTL) or on-premises storage, BMC AMI Cloud Data is well-suited, as it supports backing up or archiving mainframe data directly to cloud object storage (e.g., AWS).

    If you are connecting to Snowflake and want to query from your laptop, I find that this is much easier to use than Snowflake's IDE. It allows us as a business intelligence team to more easily connect to our servers, and code with much less hassle. It would be less appropriate if you are only on an on-premises SQL server, in that case, I would just use SSMS.

    Cons

    • In Change Manager, IDAA objects can't be analyzed. This is a big issue if you have Accelerated Tables in your shop.
    • Not able to find how runa Accelerated tasks in batch, especially long time loading

    • Schema editing is not very intuitive. Editing a single column forces you into multiple tab windows when trying to change something simple like a column name.
    • Sorting and filtering in data is nice, but buried in long right-click menus.
    • Some things are definitely non-standard UI for a Windows application, so it might be hard for die-hard Windows fans to get used to.

    Usability

    My overall experience with BMC AMI data has been great so far because after installing this software in our business now we are able to work on long term projects and business expansions. The software has made sure that our team work more on analysis and strategic data management that's why I would like to give it 9 out of 10

    It's perfectly easy to use. Not super new and shiny with lots of accessibility tailored tools, but does the job

    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

    See all of the software have different attributes and working process they gives the different analytical results so I will not compare them directly to BMC AMI Data but I would say they all are pioneers platform at their own level.

    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 data is different, making it uncomfortable to use. All in all, DBeaver is the best tool when you manage a lot of databases with different types.
