Overall Satisfaction with DBeaver

DBeaver is used to connect, query, update and manage a variety of databases through many configurations. I personally use it because it can store many queries and associate them with a particular database or on a particular sheet with related queries. It can make diagnosing problems much more quickly than without organizational features.
  • Complex connection configurations
  • Managing and organizing queries for a large number of different databases
  • Ability to make proposed updates and then write those once we are ready
  • Better navigation especially on the main query screen
  • Make icons fewer, simpler and more intuitive
  • vim integration
  • Positive Ability to manage DBeaver and query ad-hoc quickly
  • By having the queries saved it has saved developer time and thereby increased the ROI on the investment on the tool
  • This has made firefighting quicker and freed up resources for more development work.
Sequel Pro and Ace are much simpler but they have dangerous defaults such as writing updates without confirmation.

DBeaver is very well suited to general purpose DB interaction, adhoc querying, for complex setups. It does need some time to learn and come up to speed.
