"Great tool for querying any db"

4/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

SQL Commander is the best thing you can query any db right there, select, run all, as far as I can tell is way better that some other tools in the same space Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

I feel a bit slow and heavy while running, not the query execution but the interface, and Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Swiss Army Knife of SQL Tools"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

We work with at least 7 different database vendors: Postgres, Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, MariaDB, Ingres, and DB2. DbVisualizer works with them all. And it works well. Most often DbVis is better than vendor-specific management tools. The feature set was determined by actual DBAs and developers. The Export tools are so flexible and easy to use. Searching/filtering is also well thought out. And of course the ability to visually edit data in a predictable interface is priceless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

We've used DbVisualize since 2000, shortly after it was released. Over the last 20+ years, we've seen the product grow in a stable fashion with well-thought-out additions. At this time, we have no "wish-list" .... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DbVisualizer:

We've used this tool for over 20 years. There are other options. That should say it all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DbVisualizer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our company builds critical apps for customers. We also manage those apps for our clients either in the cloud or in their private data centers. DbVisualizer is used by our developers, DBAs, and DevOps folks. Without it, we would have to use a mixture of tools and wouldn't be able to benefit from others in the company with DbVisualizer experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable tool that my team has had a great experience with"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

Clean interface with quick load times and picks right back up where you left off Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

A better way to create subfolders and review fields for lesser-known table views; it's possible to review the field names; however, it's hard to find Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very nifty, does the job"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

The fact that most drivers work out of the box Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

Connectivity to some sources like Snowflake require uploading a private key. Using generic dialogues for configuration should be specialized. Fix the UI scale issues on high DPI displays. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"5 years and still going strong!"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

Ease of use along with a plethora of customizable options makes for an amazing tool. After leaving my last job, I started paying for it myself because I missed it so much at my new one! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

While the plethora of options can sometimes cause analysis paralysis, its easy enough to jump on the forum for a quick search or reach out to the team directly for help. Some things may be tough to figure out, but I've never been left in a fog unsure of how to proceed! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"DBViz is the go-to for multi-database development."

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

Multi-database development. Query results that can be searched. Connection highlighting to denote prod and dev environments. Link to your scripts folder and directly open them in the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

More administrative features for popular RDBMS would be nice. The search functionality works well, but I think there could be some improvement such as seeing a table with your matching results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome since 2013 (the day we met)"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

What I like best about DBVisualizer is how easy it is to navigate the data through entities (tables) and display a graphic representation of the relations. I haven't seen this feature in any other DB admin software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

I was going to say the lack of a dark theme, but you guys solved with the last versions, so I think the only feature I miss is creating tables from the references view graphically, sometimes it is better to have the full view of the model to add a new entity.

Hi Leonardo,

Thank you for choosing DbVisualizer for almost 10 years, that's amazing and makes us so happy! I will forward your wish to create tables from the references view graphically to our developers, hopefully they are able to work that in to a future update.

"Excellent for decades"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

It organizes many connections and database types in a nice tree and provides default driver jars for most. It helps with building queries and execution plans. It provides lower level features like writing large result sets to disk without excessive memory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

It sometimes uses a lot of memory. It could help more with schema diagrams, design tools, and programmer tools like generating data transfer objects from tables or vice versa. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
