DbSchema vs. Sequel Pro

Well suited to a team working directly in the physical modeling space.

It's a great tool when building the software, the ability to add SQL and No-SQL databases. Very convenient to write the queries and generate the filtered data we require. Gives the ability to export, import databases of various formats and generate reports from them. It might not be suitable if you want the data to be seen in a visualized manner

Incentivized

• Many database platforms supported
• Direct database integration - option to have model actions reflected immediately in database.
• Test data generation with Groovy scripting for control over specific profiles

Incentivized

• Table filters are simple and easy to use
• I love the ability to install plugins: Export tables to Laravel migrations is one of our most used plugins
• Super easy to connect to local Docker containers, Vagrant and remote DBs through SSH

Incentivized

• Logical data model integration is weak. Need way to update existing models with changes
• Conceptual data modeling is missing

• It crashes CONSTANTLY. If you have more than one connection tab open and close one of them, it crashes. If you just have it open in the background, it randomly crashes. If you're using it, it randomly crashes. When you try to send a crash report, the CRASH REPORTER CRASHES.
• Can be a bit slow.
• No way that I'm aware of to query multiple databases in the same query.

DbSchema does a number of things very well, but is not as full featured as many customers will want

It is easy to use, but the design could use updating as it's very dated.

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.

Some of the other Tools are no longer supported, and DbSchema is much less expensive than most of them.

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 editing of existing data is much more cumbersome than it is in Sequel Pro.

Incentivized

• DbSchema is very inexpensive, and functional, so easy to get a team started

• The user interface is great. Since all of our computers are macOS based, we can all use it and share knowledge with our colleagues
• It enables me to make things in such a faster way that it enables us to spend our time with coding and providing more solutions to our clients
• The workflow is much improved with the import and export feature, so we don't waste time with that kind of work.
