    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.

    Glean.io is exceptionally well for creating automation data visualisation dashboards. Exploring the data is again highly effective. Visualisations are easily customisable to best suit the requirements of the team. Collaborating and commenting around the dashboards is very smooth. If there are any changes in the system or any feature requests, the support team takes some time to respond

    Pros
    Devart
    • 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!

    • Querying has to be done by users only. There can be ways to automate querying using templates
    • Not able to clearly check the query run time
    • The customer support team can be little more proactive while communicating any changes and resolving any queries

    For simple use cases, Glean.io is a lightweight alternative to SAP Analytics Cloud. Provisioning, testing, and documentation are easier and less intimidating in the Glean.io case. Thus, it is easy to explore without firing up the sales machinery of the big corporates. Thus, the process of looking into and testing it out was way more convenient. Further, the data ops features were new to use and seem to be unique with Glean.io.
