"Great value for money database interrogation software"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

The interface could be simpler to use and more intuitive. I will google how to do something in the software if I haven't tried it before. Everything I want to do is found using a quick google search and review of the help documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful product, for any database, with strong features and good support"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

Compatibility with any database, strong editor features, nice/useful monitor module, cmd line interface with a few dedicated command, good import/export modules, frequent patch releases, drivers management, good support even with the lower license model Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

Lack of some (minor) db-system commands, settings for import/export cannot be (until now) fully saved, some limitation in sharing the same settings among users Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DbVisualizer:

Try it, Use it, enjoy it... Very likely if you think of a needed feature for a db-client, DbVisualizer has already got it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We work hard in ETL projects and database management. DbVisualizer is the only tool we need for the latter tasks and anyway it can be integrated with powerful ETL tools like Pentaho or Talend. We can rather always avoid using proprietary db-clients like Visual Studio or Workbench, so it's easy to skill people (only one tool, not many). We've been using DbVisualizer since 2005, and it's still one of the best tools we have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"DBVisualizer get everything done for me"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

My company has a diverse set of systems for IT, Finance, Forecasting, and Manufacturing and we use multiple databases from Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, AS/400 DB2, Sparks, etc. DBVisualizer allows me to quickly connect to these databases and do any data manipulation I need to do for my work. I need to do integration work frequently and the first tool I start with has always been DBVisualizer. The best features for me are its easy-to-understand menu system and the diverse output options it supports. I use it daily to extract the data I need from one system and integrate them with other systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

None that I can think of. DBVisualizer has been great. 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 completely 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 DBVisualizer 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% satisfied with the choice I made and highly recommend this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
