Data comparision and running sql queries. Pick and choose which tables to include in the sql script. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. I pretty much like the ease to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Intuitive user interface and ease of use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limitations to exporting and importing data make the tool a no-go Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Coming from a popular web based MySQL, dbForge Studio is much more feature rich. I'm thinking about purchasing the dbForge Studio for SQL Server as well. I like the database design features as well as the seach functins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think of anything that I dislike about the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the query builder and easy to use interface. I can build much faster with this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Because dbforge has so many features it’s a little heavy to load. Not a big problem but maybe a few extra seconds per launch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

dbForge is doing almost everything you need to develop and maintain MySQL and MariaDB databases.

The perfect "swiss knife" tool that any DB developpers would dream about.

Databases access is really complete and allow various connection types (SSH, SSL, HTTP Tunnel, ...)

Schemas comparison is really great, it's very easy to compare and directly synchronize tables, indexes, triggers and any objects in the databases.

During the developping process this function is very important to synchronize the test database and the production database.

Data comparison allows to locate easily and quickly any different datas.

Copying databases from one server to an another is done just in a few click.

For testing application this function is really a must. You just have to make a copy of your database and you can right away test the application with real datas.

The Query builder is really great and allow you to switch from graphical mode to SQL for advanced queries. In the same way, the sql editor allow you to test and debug complicated SQL script. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far I have not found anything to dislike. But I would appreciate a function to compare users and privileges between databases and a function to save the connections settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do I like best? About everything. But if I had to pick, probably the DB compare features that can come in so handy, but let's not forget the "search" function that can search your whole database for some content, very handy when reverse engineering software.

Other than that, the GUI is very neat. It's very streamlined with in-place edit everywhere. The query maker is one of the bests I've seen, probably THE BEST actually. The refactoring is really nice (only product I know with refactoring), and it really works, including with foreign keys...

And last but not least, I've submitted quite a few features request over the years and all were accepted and done! So much that I actually stopped as I ran out of features to request! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I was to dislike anything, it would probably be that there's no real scripting (ie I can't write my own script to control the GUI). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Does almost everything you need, reporting, design, great and reliable user interface. Awesome import/export functionality and very good backup and restore capabilities. Overall just an awesome db Tool. Nice DB compare, and most things have very good configurability. Excellent connectivity via SSH and other protocols. I use this tool about every day at work. SQLServer Version and MySQL version available. REASONABLE PRICE!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I had to pick a few things I dislike, would be things that could be even more automated, ie, drag and drop table to different db would be a good one, things like that. It has a lot of that in it already, just always looking for more. Not mutli-vendor. Only supports MySQL. Postgress is on the way but not quite ready Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Most of this, it's really effective to access to your mysql data (or mariadb) with Dbforge studio.

You can work on multiple servers and databases at the same time, it's fast and effective.

The schema and also the data compare feature are very useful.

I love to generate schema, script and a backup of my data.

Useful for dev ops, you can execute query (sql query can be auto formatted), debug them, you can also create snippets or create database schema showing all the tables and the relations.

It's really easy to administrate the right of the users for the mysql host.

You can extract data from the server and generate some fancy charts.

It's easy to create some jobs like backup the database, just create the job in the wizard and save it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The connection information is saved in the registry, so if you change your computer you have to find the registry key, export them and import them, it's painful. It would be very useful to have a save all preferences and restore them, it would avoid some problems.

Also we can set different connection group but we can't make folder, if you have a lot of server, it can be disgusting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of dbForge Studio is that everything is right there at your fingertips. All the tools you need are easily accessible. If you are are already a user of other dbForge Studio products then the layout will be very familiar to you and you will be up and running in no time.

There isn't much to dislike. Sometimes it feels like there are so many features available that you aren't sure exactly where to find something.

Although I do wish it were cheaper it does represent good value for what you are getting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Excellent user interface. Built-in debugger for functions and procedures. I can work on multiple servers and databases at the ame time. All MySQL features, including server monitoring, in one place. Fast and reliable. Never has crashed on me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The connection information is saved in the registry, and some Windows optimizing software will delete this information and you wake up to and empty connection window. It took me months to find out the reason, and Support did not help with this one. The connection information should be in a (hidden) file so it can be backed up.
