Sequel Pro has become an indispensable tool for our engineering department, allowing us to design, investigate, query, and manage databases on a daily basis. The intuitive user interface and powerful capabilities of Sequel Pro have made it our MySQL client of choice for administering databases. It effectively solves the business problem of providing a GUI-based client for managing and administering MySQL databases, which is preferred over terminal or web-based solutions.

Developers widely use Sequel Pro for accessing MySQL and alternatives like MariaDB, providing a more efficient and convenient way to perform basic to advanced tasks and queries. It simplifies database maintenance by making it easier to correct data errors in MySQL tables. We rely on Sequel Pro for querying data from test QA databases and testing certain elements when creating new features, ensuring data accuracy and correctness. Additionally, it serves as a versatile tool for building reports, queries, and basic SQL Server management across our engineering and product departments.

Sequel Pro acts as a database IDE, allowing us to create, update, delete, and view table schemas, contributing to robust and secure software development. The software is widely used as a database management interface by engineers, product managers, and other stakeholders who need easy access to peek into databases and view tables and database schemas. Users also rely on Sequel Pro for data analysis. By pulling custom data sets, they gain insights on products, customers, sales, and more. Furthermore, the marketing department uses the software to connect to the cloud database built on our Magento eCommerce platform and write custom SQL syntax. Overall, Sequel Pro has proven to be an essential tool that enhances productivity and efficiency in managing databases.

Users have recommended Sequel Pro for various reasons. They suggest giving it a try if one is unhappy with their current DB management software, as it is reliable, elegant, and free. Additionally, many users find it to be a lightweight solution for MySQL management on Mac.

Another recommendation is for beginner to intermediate users of MySQL on Mac. They believe Sequel Pro is user-friendly and highly suitable for those transitioning from PC to Mac.

Sequel Pro is highly regarded for its simplicity, ease of use, and efficiency in performing SQL operations. Users recommend it for tasks such as database searching, query writing, and adding databases quickly and easily. It is often considered a better option compared to other managers like phpmyadmin.

Overall, Sequel Pro is seen as a reliable and free solution for MySQL and MariaDB GUIs on Mac. While it may not be ideal for SQL administrators or running DDL scripts, many users consider it to be the best MySQL management software available for MacOSX.

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.

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.

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.

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 though, it works great.

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 to date to the latest editions of every MySQL server that is released.
