Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review Database Migrations on Java-based solutions. It has one of the best integrations with it as a database migration tool, you can do it with the community edition (no pricing involved) and it works flawlessly with Maven and Gradle. It's not an expensive tool in order to use the next level of features and is worth the money. I would recommend reaching that edition level as the object mapping feature gets really handy. I would not recommend it for any Microsoft-based solution (.Net) as is not compatible at all based on my experience, this is a tool only worth it with Java applications.
Read full review Pros Data import/export and SQL Script generation are quick and simple to do. Fairly intuitive when viewing/editing table data. Ability to save SQL scripts per server and recall them easily. Handy intelligence when writing queries, functions, and stored procs. Read full review Supports many databases Community version uses Apache license Widely used, good community support Read full review Cons Some icons are kinda small and difficult to understand what they do The spanish translation could be better I think there are many functions that could be useful for me but I don't know what they do Read full review GUI could be more user friendly Applying patch scripts on a blank DB differs from on a DB with data, so the migration could still fail when all tests passed Configurations options could be more flexible / powerful Read full review Support Rating 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
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review The problem with a cloud-based tool for migration services is the cloud dependency. You are restricted to use the tool along the Cloud provider. Flyway gives you the freedom to use it in any scenario as long as you are working with a compatible database engine. Even if you are working on-premise and you don't have plans to move to a cloud architecture. Or even for sandbox development scenarios where you are a developer playing around with some project ideas. And you don't have to pay anything as long as you need advanced features, and not less importantly, you are using an open-source tool.
