"Excellent experience from top to bottom"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

There are so many aspects of DBVisualizer to highlight. If I had to pick one aspect, it's the incredible flexibility to use it with just about any data source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have no dislikes when using DBVisualizer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I am a professor teaching a Graduate Database class. I haven't taught graduate databases in over 15 years. I am compeltely rewriting the case with a foundation on real world problems. I wanted a product that was easy to get started with, but had enough room to grow into a professional tool. The course does a deep dive into very complex SQL and I wanted something that students could build queries visually, but also show how the SQL is coded.DBvisualizer handles all of this.

Importantly, when I touch new software, almost without fail, I find strange edge cases. I like teaching my classes showing what can go wrong in the real world, so these edge cases are near and dear to me. I reported the few issues I found with DVVisualizer and they were immediately responsive. In a case or two, it was simple user error. A few were bugs and where possible they showed me workarounds until they fixed the codebase. Most recently, it was a feature that was missing and not only did they say they would fix it, but it would be in the next build, within a few weeks.

As a professor, I got the pro version for free, often, from other companies, that comes with substandard support. This is not the case with DBVisualizer. I am 100% satisifed with the choice I made and highly recommend this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Continuously evolving into robust DB tool"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

We have been using DbVisualizer for more than 10 years and have the opportunity to see this tool evolving and getting more robust and with greater functionalities. It looks for me that DbVis team is really analyzing UX and well responding to users requirements with consequent releases. Some of the improvements may look very simple (like 'Copy Selection as Comma List' or 'Copy Selection as IN clause', or exporting to spreadsheet, or viewing DB processes, or searching through SQL commands history) but they improve everyday work significantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

There were some memory leakages in early versions, or updating the tool was cumbersome, but now it's hard to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the best all round DB tools out there"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

The one DB tool that does it all.

Very easy to setup a database connection.

Awesome that one can just export the connections and other info for use on a reinstall etc.

Greate at exporting DDL and data.

Use it every single day.

Great that it starts supporting mongo db. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

It can be a little heavy on memory usage. Not the best at retrieving massive datasets. This is really nit picking....

Seen some issues on linux when resizing on a 2nd monitor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid workhorse for DB tasks"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

DbVisualizer makes managing multiple databases a breeze. I use it almost daily for different tasks, from ALTERs to analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

The Java UI feels a bit clunky compared with native software. With the latest version DBVis sometimes freezes in the middle of writing a query because it's "Caching tables...". I use VSCode with Github Copilot for other coding tasks and the lack of AI integration in DBVis makes it seem a bit antiquated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great Database-Viewer"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

I love the simple way of interacting with the data. I find DBVis the best program to directly add/remove/alter Data in Databases. This is very handy in early development etc.

Furthermore, I love thet it integrates with mostly all Database types.

I use it all the time when it comes to working with DB! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

Sometimes the UI is a bit unintuitive. But with some time you know where to click Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best DB software!"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

Dark theme, supports many database types, i find it easy to create queries and run sql reports. It supports ssl tunnels so i dont have to allow outside sql connections. I use it daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

the filtering of tables / finding columns is sometimes difficult and i have to pull out the manual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DbVisualizer:

Support is nice, the price for the software is worth the cost - priced fair, dark theme, i suggest browsing the instructions / documentation to learn more about its features because some can be hidden. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I use it for MSSQL, MySQL, Pg and sometime sqlite. Its great to have the same tool for all those different database engines. I really like that i can ssh tunnel into my servers and then connect to the database. Its cross-platform support is very nice, my co worker uses windows and i use linux so being able to use the same software helps us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
