A swiss army knife for database management!

We evaluated Valentina Studio (free) for three months while trying to decide on the best option for our team to use to manage our PostgreSQL databases. Since we were migrating from Microsoft's SQL Server to PostgreSQL, we needed to replace the tooling we used daily (mainly, SQL Management Studio). We needed something that was very easy to use, cost-effective, and ran efficiently.
  • Foreign Key Constraint data viewer! This was a tremendously helpful feature that not many other products have. Just pick a constraint and see the data in the child tables! No setup required!
  • Supports any and every database imaginable.
  • Somewhat laggy performance. Boot up speed was on the slow side and connecting to our database servers was also a little slower than other products.
  • User interface can be a little clunky. Instead of the usual tree view of servers, databases, and schemas, you are presented with lists that you click on and get new windows to pick the new list of data from. Not organized efficiently.
If you have to manage a lot of different databases from different vendors, you could do well by standardizing on this product. It checks all the boxes for a proper database management studio. You would only have to learn one product to manage them all.

However, if you are looking to find a good product for a single database vendor, you might be better off finding a tool that was designed specifically for that vendor product.
