Less functionality and a poor interface. Even if SSH certificates are supported, DbVisualizer doesn't support them!

DBEaver is used by some of our customers. We find it clunky and unintuitive. One customer used TOAD for his Oracle installation (15+ years ago). We did not like it at all. When researching for a universal database tool some 20 years ago, we found dbvis and never looked back. …

A bit less MSSQL-specific functionality than SSMS (obviously), but DbVisualizer has a far better data view and query editor, and is much less clunky.

SSMS is fabulous for databases with an on-prem SQL Server driver, but not very helpful with anything else. I loathe DBeaver. It runs your query once for a "sample"... and even if that sample took 45 minutes to pull, it'll run the query AGAIN for 45 minutes to show you your full …

has easier functionality for basic db admin than SSMS; can see data immediately w/o running a SELECT statement

Easy to run as a standalone application, largest sets of db drivers and very efficient UI/UX for the data manipulations task.

I like that it provides Vertica-specific built-ins (e.g., detailed projection display) and can be viewed in the GUI without executing a query.

DbVisualizer is more user friendly, more visually appealing and allows me to work more fluidly. I feel like the UI is more intuitive, and the regular updates are very nice. I have not found any other product like it that feels as pleasant and easy to use.

We needed an application which could connect to various databases no matter where it came from. Using Microsoft SQL, MYSQL to name a few have simplified how we operate and provide reports daily.

Seamlessly querying PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Oracle, SQL Server, and SQLite from one interface without switching tools. The intelligent autocomplete and schema browsing make it ideal for writing queries and understanding unfamiliar databases. Complex performance tuning, deep monitoring, and automated backup/recovery require specialized DBA tools. Performance degrades with tens or hundreds of thousands of rows; command-line tools or ETL solutions are better suited to bulk data processing.

Pros
  • 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.

Cons
  • 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)

Return on Investment
  • The pricing for DbVisualizer is fair.
  • The tool also succeeds in non-functional areas I find important, such as being able to install and/or run without requiring administrator privileges on Windows.
  • Has capability to generate diagrams and models from existing databases which is very helpful in reverse engineering.
