"An Open Database Administrator"
What do you like best about phpMyAdmin?

The first thing is free, a simple and powerful database administrator. With the duality of running on various operating systems such as Windows and Linux with full compatibility, 32-bit and 64-bit versions, adaptable to various working platforms such as the docker case, which is where I use this tool currently under the Rancher graphical environment on a linux server (Debian). As it fulfills perfectly with its work of creating databases of MySQL, it allows me to debug the consultations and to make tests of fast form, to administer it from its size up to the quantity of tables, format of the fields and integration, it does not matter the free language in which this working we can use this tool to administer the databases. It allows me to import data from CSV and SQL.

When I have to export the data by backups or to load the information in other work environments I can do it in different formats such as: CSV, SQL, XML, PDF, Word, Excel and others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about phpMyAdmin?

Although it has many good things, and is a graphical tool to make our lives easier when working with our databases, its main problem is when importing data to large tables is usually a bit tedious and uncomfortable because it requires alternate tools to load them as BIGdump.

"The key administrative program we use for website databases"
What do you like best about phpMyAdmin?

For basic usage, the phpMyAdmin platform isn't difficult to use. The instructions for performing data swaps and database updates are often easy with the online resources available to users. There are also a good handful of YouTube videos that I can look at that can help me through some critical processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about phpMyAdmin?

Using phpMyAdmin without the proper amount of training and care can cause your entire database to deliver corrupt data results. It can be tricky to replace data rows by deleting them first instead of having them be replaced as they would in a standard file manager program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"phpMyAdmin is probably the easiest tool to use for managing your databases"
What do you like best about phpMyAdmin?

phpMyAdmin is free software with a wide variety of operations in MySQL, for example, creating tables, keys, indexes, or permissions in the database. It is probably the easiest tool to use compared to the command console. The best part is that it is displayed in a web interface, allowing access from different locations. Additionally, another reason I like this software is that I can import data tables from a CSV file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about phpMyAdmin?

phpMyAdmin has a flaw that has been haunting it for many years, which is that it does not specifically detail the errors that occur when trying to execute an operation. For example, when trying to delete data from a table that depends on another table with a foreign key, the software throws a message with an "error" message, instead of showing the reason why the operation failed, which would quickly facilitate problem resolution.

"Almost perfect database editing tool!"
What do you like best about phpMyAdmin?

I like the most the simplicity of phpMyAdmin; I'm able to do big queries with just a few simple clicks on a row or a table, everything is soo easy when it comes to create or edit data, when I'm doing some projects to my customers, and something is no right, I can fix it with few seconds.

I really like the idea that it is open source, me and my team can feature phpMyAdmin and add new things that needed for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about phpMyAdmin?

The interface is ancient, they should upgrade and make phpMyAdmin more modern.

phpMyAdmin seems to be very complicated to update and some times when there are a lot of data phpMyAdmin might do issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

phpMyAdmin is easy to install, even if that's not the default database manager. The user interface and administration are straightforward to understand and use, its super easy to create, edit or delete databases, tables or rows.

Well, the most annoying thing that comes to my mind is only the slow speed when refreshing a page when I'm using big data, seems like using big data with phpMyAdmin isn't a good option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
