Considered Both Products	Sequel Pro BP Blake Pritchett Director of Technology Chose Sequel Pro DataGrip has much better support for other database types and is a modern design. I also love Quercus, which is on the same level as Sequel Pro, but is a much more modern design with a few cache optimizations to make it faster. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Engineer Chose Sequel Pro MySQL workbench is good to work with MySQL databases, but Sequel Pro gives us the ability to work with any SQL databases. It's open-source, lightweight and solves the problem that I am required to solve to run the DDL and DML queries. Incentivized Helpful? Ilyas Bakouch Cloud Solutions Architect Chose Sequel Pro MySQL Workbench: Sequel Pro is lighter, simpler to use and faster TablePlus: Sequel Pro is free while Table plus is not Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Employee Chose Sequel Pro I found Sequel Pro through Google and downloaded it because it was free. I haven't used many other Mac-based solutions. You may need to open multiple windows to find the relationship between tables. Other software has better visual aids to help assist with this. Incentivized Helpful? Dan Mahoney Member of Technical Staff Chose Sequel Pro 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 … Incentivized Helpful? Carlos Eduardo de Souza Co-founder & Manager Chose Sequel Pro It's so much easier to use, it's the perfect balance between something deep enough to manage and customize databases, but it's easy enough to get into really fast. Incentivized Helpful? Joey Yax Web Developer Chose Sequel Pro Free is a huge selling point, but beyond that it's secure, powerful and easy to use. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Analyst Chose Sequel Pro The UI design of Sequel Pro is to help people whose work is not typical coding heavy but still data dependent. It stands out for its target users. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Engineer Chose Sequel Pro I've only ever used MySQL commandline (haven't tried any other GUIs for sql). Though I like Sequel Pro a lot, I just prefer using the terminal when doing DBA stuff on production databases because I can be sure of the commands I execute. For the test environment, and development … Incentivized Helpful? Kyle Randolph Analyst Chose Sequel Pro Amazingly full-featured for a free MySQL client. Met all the requirements for our team. Free & for Mac OS X. Incentivized Helpful? Anand Chhatpar CTO Chose Sequel Pro Sequel Pro has a fully functional free version which is fast and unlimited. None of the others let you get to your data as quickly and directly as Sequel Pro does. With the exception of the default tools provided by MySQL, Sequel Pro is probably the client that remains most up … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Sequel Pro
Likelihood to Recommend	Open Source 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 Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Open Source 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 Ilyas Bakouch Cloud Solutions Architect Read full review
Cons	Open Source 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.

Usability	Open Source It is easy to use, but the design could use updating as it's very dated. Incentivized BP Blake Pritchett Director of Technology Read full review
Support Rating	Open Source 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Return on Investment	Open Source 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.
