"DataGrip’s Next-Level SQL Intelligence in One Powerful Multi-DB Client"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DataGrip?

The SQL intelligence in DataGrip is genuinely on another level compared to most database clients. The autocomplete understands your schema deeply, resolves table aliases across joins, catches syntax errors before you even run the query and suggests fixes in real time. For someone writing complex SQL day in and day out that alone makes a noticeable difference. The Git integration is also something I rely on heavily, version controlling SQL scripts and collaborating on query changes feels natural inside the tool. And being able to connect to MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MongoDB, Redis and more from one single interface without juggling separate clients is something I did not fully appreciate until I had it.

What do you dislike about DataGrip?

The pricing is the first thing that comes to mind. At around $109 per year for individuals and $259 per user per year for organizations it is hard to justify unless you are using it every single day for serious work. The tool is also quite heavy on memory, JetBrains products in general demand a solid machine and DataGrip is no exception. The initial schema introspection when you connect to a large database can feel painfully slow and that is frustrating when you just want to run a quick query. There is also no built in data visualization which means you are always exporting data elsewhere if you want to chart or analyze results visually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive and Fast, Must-Have for SQL Analysis"
5/5
What do you like best about DataGrip?

I use DataGrip to explore and analyze data using SQL in my company database. It's agile, fast, and very easy to use. I love the keyboard shortcuts and how quickly it allows me to customize the base to my needs. It's also easy to integrate with a lot of databases and drivers. The initial setup was very easy and simple. The new AI feature is great and feels like it's reading my mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful IDE"
5/5
What do you like best about DataGrip?

I appreciate the depth of configurability that Datagrip offers, as no other IDE provider allows such comprehensive customization. Full access to the database is particularly valuable, as I can easily delete outdated tables as an administrator and manage my database efficiently. The performance of the IDE is remarkable, making it an overall very powerful solution. Datagrip was recommended to me, and since then I have used it in all companies for SQL work and have always insisted on using it, even when I had to work with other IDEs. The setup is quick and overall easy, even if you initially need support from experienced engineers. I am particularly thrilled that with a single click you can format your queries exactly as you wish, which can greatly simplify the work. This makes Datagrip the best solution on the market for me. I use it for prototyping pipelines and ad hoc analyses because I greatly appreciate the simplicity and efficiency it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGrip?

The menu, the navigation is very unusual and could be optimized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A very important part of the JetBrains software suite"
4/5
What do you like best about DataGrip?

Datagrip has a lot of cool and interesting features but the one I found the most exciting was data visualization. I found Datagrip to be by far the best tool to generate database diagrams.

Another very interesting feature is the visualization of results of Explain and Analyze which makes it very easy to see the troublesome parts of your query and consequently helps improving the query performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGrip?

Generally there isn't much to dislike about the software however, since it is a paid tool, in the end it all comes down to weighing between free tool vs a couple of extra features. The extra features, in my opinion, however cool they are, are not worth spending the buck especially if writing queries is not your main job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic UI Experience and great inbuilt AI tool to write SQL"
5/5
What do you like best about DataGrip?

- The UI is absolutely easy to use and navigate

- It segments different queries into blocks in the same file to be run individually

- The AI tool has great auto-complete feature makes it really easy to write SQL Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGrip?

There is not much to dislike about DataGrip. One suggestion however, would be to make editor settings easily accessible to modify for the users. RIght now it is a bit difficult to find even the editor settings to make trivial changes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nice alternative to SQL Studio"
3.5/5
What do you like best about DataGrip?

We were using SQL Yog and switched to Datagrip. I like that I do not need to use Putty with Datagrip like I did with SQL Yog. I also like that Datagrip allows for multiple connections to various servers and dbs and schemas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGrip?

Some of the layout is very confusing at first and even though I have been using it for a few months it is still confusing at times. More options to customize the layout would be great, though maybe the option exists, but i cant find it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Trades Depth of Features for Usability"
5/5
What do you like best about DataGrip?

I really enjoy the ease of using datagrip. I've found that it's ability to distinguish queries and present a clean interface are unbeat. I like to think of datagrip like Apple versus Samsung, with Apple presenting the cleaner, simpler product (Datagrip) versus Samsungs complex and powerful options, but ultimately confusing for the average user (competitors). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGrip?

I've found that datagrip lacks behind other competitors only in the speed they release new updates. For example, dBeaver offers rapid updates including things like AI modeling that are only half built out. On the other hand, Datagrip makes sure that everything is fully baked and tested before release, making for a easier and cleaner user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It is a powerful tool to manage databases"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DataGrip?

I can manage many database systems without the need for other software. It connects to MySQL, MariaDB, Mongo, Oracle, Redis, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Cockroach, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGrip?

It does not have a free tier, but it is worth the money if you use it every day. The Mongo integration is not super powerful, but good enough. Also, it may be a little slow to start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The SQL quick suggestions for table names and neat interface is the best part. Also on hovering over the table name, you can see the ddl. Its better than dbeaver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like how it doesn't automatically refresh the DDL of all the tables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
