PopSQL is the most seamless database client out there! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eshwaran V. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 15, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** - User Interface. It's smooth, modern and easy to use. - Easy to setup connections - Parameterized Queries - SQL query autocomplete suggestions - Schema introspections I started using PopSQL almost 2 years ago, and it's always my go-to for querying a relational database. I first learned about it in a freecodecamp video on learning SQL, and having tried over a dozen other market offerings for SQL clients, I can confidently say that PopSQL is the best out there! The user interface is one of its strongest points, having a sleek, responsive and reactive layout that keeps the important elements in focus. Outdated UIs like pgAdmin, dbeaver and mysqlworkbench do not have the same smoothness or UX. The parameterized queries are a blessing for plugging in values through a dropdown, selection or otherwise. The introspection is fast, and shows all relevant data such as column names and types in milliseconds! **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** While I'm aware that PopSQL has more features like Dashboarding, query alerts and others, I just don't use them as much, and just prefer it as a reliable SQL client that can help me get my database work done with the least amount of effort. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** PopSQL is making data accessibility easier for both individuals and organizations. I'm more productive when I use it and can easily share queries with teammates thus improving collaboration. There's no huge technical barrier between me and the database when I'm using PopSQL. Their support system is excellent, and customer care is quite helpful. ### 2. Seamless SQL Querying Experience with popSQL.

The ability to run Ad Hoc SQL analytics and share data is a game changer, for my team. I can effortlessly create queries to retrieve data, schedule tasks and share the results with my colleagues. This feature saves us time on tasks and empowers advanced users to access relevant data effortlessly. The option to organize SQL logic into folders and subfolders promotes an approach to saving and accessing code. It enhances our teams data literacy by facilitating collaboration reviewing code and sharing knowledge. I can connect PopSQL with production databases such as PostgreSQL, Databricks, Snowflake and BigQuery. This flexibility enables me to access and query data from sources while also performing checks for identifying any inconsistencies, between datasets. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** Although PopSQL usually provides an experience there have been an instances where the data sharing feature didn't function properly. A few team members noticed that the Excel files exported appeared to be, in disarray. However I'm happy to report that the PopSQL team has taken measures to address this problem. It appears to have been resolved in recent updates. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** PopSQL accelerates my journey to master SQL quickly. The user-friendly interface and the convenience of organizing queries within folders make the learning process enjoyable and swift.

Clean UI, easy to collaborate and neat Slack integration! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Harish M. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 13, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** As a developer, I love PopSQL's scratchpad. Very clean interface to write queries and see results on the right of the screen. It also shows you results from previous runs of queries. You can write multiple queries and it only runs the one where your cursor is. I love this because I haven't deleted any of my old queries and can quickly grab and reuse them. The Slack integration is very neat. You can easily set it up to run queries every x minutes and notify you in Slack if rows are returned or not. This has been extremely useful in monitoring our DB for unexpected states. Collaboration works similar to Google docs. Works as you would expect. Some of my coworkers use it to create charts and other visualizations which look pretty nice too. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** I don't think I dislike anything. It's a great product! **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easy access to data for all teams across the company. Don't have to rely on others to get what I need. ### 6. Liked the AI capabilities, shared folders and ease to use. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** It is very easy to use and collaborate on thanks to an easy sharing button. I like that even though it is not a BI tool per se, it has quite good chart capabilities. What I liked the most on the most recent update is its new AI capabilities, as generating a title and a description is something that most of the time we do not do and suggested fixing errors helps a lot with syntax errors. Version history is great as there is no need to remember what you changed beforehand, making it a lot easier to go back into previous versions. Having a dark mode is always greatly appreciated. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** Looking for a specific column in a table is hard as it does not let you filter by table.column. You can only look for either a table or a column. Even though chart and dashboard capabilities are quite good for a sql runner it still have lots of room for improvement. Once you delete a query there is no trash bin where you could potentially recover that query. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** Thanks to the versatility of PopSQL as a SQL runner, it lets us do collaborative work in a user-friendly way thanks to its ease of use making us more productive overall. Syntax errors, which are a well known headache, are mitigated by the AI capabilities that PopSQL offer so not only does it saves time but also increases the query accuracy. No need to rack my brain about previous changes that I made to the queries thanks to the version history as it seamlessly tracks alterations as well as enhances transparency on queries. Having an automatic limit 10 also has saved me a few times from unnecessary waiting times. ### 7. Easy for Operators **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** What I enjoy about PopSQL is it is easy to use and easy to faciliate quick reporting and running queries. I do not spend much time writing and re-writing new custom queries. Instead, I set up recurring queries to run on a scheduled cadence. It saves me so much time! Even the queries I do not use on a scheduled basis, I keep open as separate tabs. These tabs have saved me over and over. Speaking of which, the general structure, format, and UI is lovely. It's simple and straightforward - if I cut down all the frills I would normally associate with similar tools, it's exactly what PopSQL has made itself out to be. Buttons are clearly detailed, custom SQL box is simple to expand or contract, and the results are readily available. The hotkeys are great - I hate having to click around a screen. If my hand comes off the mouse, I have lost. And thankfully, PopSQL helps by having simple to use, easy to understand, and easily accessible hotkeys. Also, I really appreciate how I can swiftly switch from one database to another. In some other tools, I have had challenges in syncing various DB's, and switching between them took more time than I had in the day. Now, I can go to the drop down in the top right, find the right database/warehouse, and run the queries or reports I need to run. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** The only thing I wish was different about PopSQL is being able to run schedule exports without queries being public. Occassionally I come across a non-public report I wish to export but am unable to without it being public. In a big organization. it's hard to find the owner! **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** I'm attempting to solve both the missing reporting data from my own BI tools which are a bit more cumbersome to manipulate, as well as pull information which feeds into my own daily reports. ### 8. Helping us gain valuable insights **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eleanor H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 12, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** Easy-to-use graphics for seamless integration into presentations, and helpful exports to build out additional information. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** We have had a few timeouts on volume, but overall has been an incredibly helpful tool for our business. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** PopSQL makes it easy to see where our customers are in their onboarding journey and offers easy "at a glance" information about our customers and their setup. PopSQL is also helping us early identify specific customer or integration outages or instances of anomalous behavior in their use of our product. ### 9.

Another amazing feature is all the export options provided, allowing for automations when combined with their scheduling feature. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** The search bar is pretty slow, and tends to freeze the whole system when starting to write, should feel more natural. Another little thing I would change is the default 100 limit that tends to create errors specially against new users. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** The data extraction was more like ad hoc analysis and with PopSql we collaborate like never before, increasing the value that our analyst team are bringing to the company ### 11.

A great source of data ! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Malala R. | Account Manager- MENA / APAC, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 13, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** The user interface (UI) is well-designed to provide a sense of familiarity, making it easy to use. The intuitive menu with tabs and the behavior of handling multiple queries contribute to its user-friendly nature. As a beginner, I found it a straightforward and accessible experience. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** For a low low beginner, it's good to point out an (i) function for everyone to understand the tool and its functions to ease better the tool's use for everyone in the team. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helps me extract the data in real time that I can share with customers. It's saving so much time to gather data all at once and that other queries can be used for everyone. ### 13. Fantastic for data-oriented product management **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ken H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 23, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** The aesthetics alone pulled me in, but all the overwhelming useful features and even the obvious features every SQL IDE should have are all so well done. My favorite experience with PopSQL was taking a fast query to validate assumptions overheard during meetings and slinging out a graph with a link to it for discussion. I also use it for rapid prototyping reports for my team to help them visual my needs more quickly. Lastly, I love being able to spot holes in our data governance with it as new tables are born from features being built. Very simple for me to drop in and classify new eventing or understand capabilities more quickly. The list of fantastic UX / features is far too long to lay out here, but suffice it to say it's just the only SQL editor I want to use. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** It's rough once you start slamming into those paywalls, especially as a solo user. I'm honestly not trying to be overly in love here, but be ready to be disappointed when that free trial runs out unless you're prepared to roll out the team on this and you have your corporate credit card in hand. I hear they're figuring out things for lone-wolf users like I am, though, so here's to a responsive company! **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** Multiplayer SQL, rapid prototyping reports, ad hoc capture of proof around assumptions, easily shared charts for discussion, and more generally solves all the friction for me as a Product Manager around producing evidence of (or lack of) hypotheses. ### 14. PopSQL makes self-serve in startups easy! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Andrew L. | Senior Strategy & Analytics Associate, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 08, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** PopSQL combines a simple and beautiful User Interface with great functionality to help promote access to data within early stage businesses. Its simple charting tool, makes it easy to whip up a dashboard, whilst its data catalog is a neat solution for documentation. In a nutshell, its a great tool to introduce non-technical folk to self-serve analytics. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** A few bugs are around, although this is continuously improving. No "explorer" liscense does not allow for viewers to level up and begin to write/edit queries themselves. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** Self-serve analytics. In particular when the Integration with DBT docs becomes available. In the meantime, it solves for quick and easy ad-hoc analysis and allows our team can share and collaborate on data analysis and avoid duplication of effort. ### 15. Great Product, User Friendly! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Games | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 09, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** One of the standout features of PopSQL is its user-friendly approach to query sharing. With the option to easily share queries via links or team folders, collaboration is made simple and efficient. Additionally, the ability to run multiple queries concurrently in the same tab is a great time-saving feature. Another strength of PopSQL is the ability to quickly create charts and graphs. The search functionality also facilitates efficient data/queries discovery, while the version history feature is could be very helpful for tracking changes to queries in some cases. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** Although PopSQL offers the option to export CSV files, it lacks the ability to directly export query results to Google Sheets, it can be overcome in different ways but its not the best user experience. Additionally, the search functionality has some room for improvement to make it more effective and user-friendly (the ability to search specific columns in schemas). **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** Its give us the ability to share queries & results very easily. ### 16.

Also there are still many issues of 'Lost Server Connection' and when working with more than one google projectiD with different permissions the software still lacks possibilities. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** In my company we use BigQuery to store out database. The BQ buil-in platform is not as easy to use and lacks usefull functionalities that PopSQl does offer. ### 17. This is like Postman for SQL **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Aman P. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 11, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** As a techie, I use SQL every day, and sending queries to other team members is a hassle. Still, with POPSQL's collaborative features, managing and organizing everything related to SQL is easier than ever. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** The desktop client works pretty okay, but the web version can have improved performance, a cleaner UI, and a better UX. Team size can be increased for lower price plans. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** PopSQL provides a collaborative approach to Database Management and for teams working together. It benefits me as i work almost every day with databases. ### 18. a familiar UI for someone who has not been in touch with SQL before - good experience **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Konstantin A. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 11, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** An Ui with an editor, that feels very familiar. Even the rest of the menu was quite intuitive with the tabs and the way multiple queries behave. I am not too familiar with competitors, but I found it feeling easy for a beginner. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** While ther permission system is there for a reason, I wish it would let you know up front who is in charge and how to contact this team or peron. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** Gathering Data from multiple sources and combining them outright, so that our operating teams can use that information in their daily doings and remain up to date. ### 19. Best for SQL Querying **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ravi T. | Associate Software Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 18, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** Mainly the interface i like the most best it is user friendly to write the query and executing it's so easy to understand and whenever I'm writing the syntax if i Miss anything wrong on that time it was highlighting that error and so it is one best for me to use without any distractions. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** For me i never faced any dislikes in this, but only for onething in this one i can point out that is in free version i can save only few number of queries but I'm using for upgraded version because the prices are reasonable. **What problems is PopSQL solving and how is that benefiting you?** Whenever I'm using PopSQL i never tired because of the auto complete feature, and it was helping me to keep the previously executed queries also because of that i can reuse the same queries again. ### 20.

One of my favorite features is that we can keep the results of a previous query in a tab, so we don't need to run more than once if we forget some result.

I also really appreciate the ability to have a desktop app for writing and editing my queries. ### 26.

SQL first data visualization at its finest **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Joe W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 28, 2023 **What do you like best about PopSQL?** Visualizing business intelligence straight from SQL queries is a huge win. The web interface is also clutch when it comes to getting non-data-oriented people to review data and dashboards. **What do you dislike about PopSQL?** My only gripe with PopSQL is that queries embedded in dashboards aren't cloned and must be shared to be embedded.
