Considered Both Products
BMC AMI Data
Chose BMC AMI Data
BMC AMI uses AI and DataOps to automate routine maintenance, reorganization, and backup, acting as a "self-managing" system. DBArtisan is a more hands-on administration tool tailored for DBA daily tasks like schema management, SQL tuning, and security. BMC AMI Data is tailored …
Chose BMC AMI Data
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.
Chose BMC AMI Data
It is not my choice, management do. And I was very happy because i used BMC suite for almost 25 years, so a deep knowledge, helps in doing stuff. I used Broadcom in 2 shops, but for very short periods.
Sequel Pro
Chose Sequel Pro
DataGrip has much better support for other database types and is a modern design. I also love Quercus, which is on the same level as Sequel Pro, but is a much more modern design with a few cache optimizations to make it faster.
Chose Sequel Pro
MySQL workbench is good to work with MySQL databases, but Sequel Pro gives us the ability to work with any SQL databases. It's open-source, lightweight and solves the problem that I am required to solve to run the DDL and DML queries.
Chose Sequel Pro
MySQL Workbench: Sequel Pro is lighter, simpler to use and faster
TablePlus: Sequel Pro is free while Table plus is not
Chose Sequel Pro
I found Sequel Pro through Google and downloaded it because it was free. I haven't used many other Mac-based solutions. You may need to open multiple windows to find the relationship between tables. Other software has better visual aids to help assist with this.
Chose Sequel Pro
MySQL Workbench is a wonderful tool, but the routine editing of existing data is note nearly as straightforward as it is in Sequel Pro. The ability to sort a data view with a single click makes Sequel Pro my definite choice.

phpMyAdmin is pretty ubiquitous, but the routine …
Chose Sequel Pro
It's so much easier to use, it's the perfect balance between something deep enough to manage and customize databases, but it's easy enough to get into really fast.
Chose Sequel Pro
Free is a huge selling point, but beyond that it's secure, powerful and easy to use.
Chose Sequel Pro
The UI design of Sequel Pro is to help people whose work is not typical coding heavy but still data dependent. It stands out for its target users.
Chose Sequel Pro
I've only ever used MySql commandline (haven't tried any other GUIs for sql). Though I like Sequel Pro a lot, I just prefer using the terminal when doing DBA stuff on production databases because I can be sure of the commands I execute. For the test environment, and development …
Chose Sequel Pro
Amazingly full-featured for a free MySQL client. Met all the requirements for our team. Free & for Mac OS X.
Chose Sequel Pro
Sequel Pro has a fully functional free version which is fast and unlimited. None of the others let you get to your data as quickly and directly as Sequel Pro does. With the exception of the default tools provided by MySQL, Sequel Pro is probably the client that remains most up …

  • Not suitable for designing your DB
  • Connections over SSH to vagrant and Docker hosted DBs
  • Auto suggestion can be better

  • Editing existing data. Editing record contents is trivial in Sequel Pro, while not nearly as easy in MySQL Workbench or phpMyAdmin.
  • Deleting data - even simpler than editing data.
  • Inserting new data - using "Duplicate row" then making needed changes is very simple.

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

  • Improving the way we create new connections to remote databases
  • I couldn't find any way to configure my local server (MySQL), so I need to make changes on server outside the application. I know that there are other tools that integrate it, so you don’t have to leave the workflow
  • It could have a feature to integrate our databases or connections (favorites) with other devices, like using Google Drive or Dropbox. It would be really useful!

It's open-source and very convenient to work with. I can easily import any database I want using a data dump and runt the queries on them to derive the data insights on the data. I might want to use Excel to visualize that, that might be one of the disadvantages.

BMC AMI uses AI and DataOps to automate routine maintenance, reorganization, and backup, acting as a "self-managing" system. DBArtisan is a more hands-on administration tool tailored for DBA daily tasks like schema management, SQL tuning, and security. BMC AMI Data is tailored for enterprises that rely heavily on the mainframe for high-volume transactions. DBArtisan is ideal for general DBAs managing a mixed portfolio of databases.

  • Unreliability has lead to wasted time and frustration among staff.
  • The ease of testing database changes and modifying test data WHEN IT WORKS theoretically makes testing quick and easy but in reality, this is far outweighed by the wasted time and frustration involved with it not being reliable.
  • The ease of seeing the relations between tables is very nice and saves time when trying to see how unfamiliar tables are connected.
