DbVisualizer vs. NetApp SnapCenter Backup Management

DbVis is our tool of choice when we need to work with a wide variety of Db vendors and versions. It allows us to replace several proprietary tools for accessing and, in part, managing database systems. It gives our customers and us a single base to work on databases. No need for us or them to install, learn, and pay for multiple solutions. If one would, for example, use ONLY one dbms, e.g., PostgreSQL, then DBVis could be a bit of an overkill.

It's great to test and develop new applications. Terrific to identify new and discover networks. Excellent with cost tracking and asset management. Intuitive user interface.

• Out-of-the-box support for many different databases.
• Intuitive UI for interacting with data.
• Flexibility of SQL Commander for writing scripts.
• Great support for working with JSON data in recent updates.
• Database connections over SSH.
• Table relationship visualization is very helpful.
• The tree view is well organized in how it splits out schemas.

• VM backup via volume NetApp SnapCenter Backup Management
• It can be used in DB aware backup
• Provide quick data restoration

• Small, but noticeable: it would be nice to be able to highlight just one column of a data output for copy/paste by clicking on the column header (a feature some of us are accustomed to from SQL Server Management Studio)
• Is there an ability to bulk import an excel file to a table in a connected SQL Server in DbVis? If so, I haven't figured that out yet. I still largely use Microsoft SSMS to import data to our team's personal SQL Server, but can easily query that server via DbVis)
• (I really don't have any major complaints - our company has tried to steer users toward DBeaver for YEARS, which I cannot stand. DbVis knocks the beaver out of the water)

• integration with other backup solutions
• ease of management
• The interface needs to be improved

We never had problems with it. It is able to connect to all data sources (Oracle, Informix, DB2, SQL Server) that we currently use.

I use this tool for several hours each day, spanning many years in various projects. It's wide support for various database types while keeping consistency within the UI for each is important when working with various databases day in and day out.

It's faster and more secure with data with high-level security layers.

[DbVisualizer] is pretty easy to use compared to IntelliJ because of it's simplicity. The performance is very good, it feels as good as a native application compared to the other two softwares I used for the same purpose. It's very cheaper compared to the other two tools and that's a big selling point.

If the size of the VM is somewhere 10TB, the Commvault will take more than 24 hours to take a full file-level backup. At the same time, NetApp SnapCenter Backup Management will take a few seconds

It's done a magnificent job with failover and repair of the database.
