"Comfortable Work"
What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

After creating tables, I can use the ER diagram in the References tab to do a visual check. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

All good, there is nothing to dislike. It has good no-nonsense features for comfortable work.

Suggestion: on a Mac, access easily the SQLite file used by the iPhone simulator when it runs an app under development. The file that is inside ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices

The challenge is that everytime the simulator runs an app, the path to the SQLite database file used does change.

SQLiteFlow is the only app I know that is capable of following the path change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Extremely useful tool for working with databases"
What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

It just works. Cell editing is extremely useful when debugging and developing. Exporting database content is made easy, as is getting ddl for all the existing stuff. We maintain around two dozen different databases, which is made easier with a tool like dbvis. Also, sharing settings with colleagues is possible and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

Startup time (it is JAVA, after all) is just not the best. And some of our used JDBC-drivers need to be installed manually. Some features/settings were quite hard to find, but it is a powerful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sandra B of DbVisualizer

"A Common Database Tool For Any JDBC-compatible Database"
What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

The user interface is very intuitive. I love that I can have the same experience if I'm connecting to a local SQLite database or an enterprise SQL Server. Being able to quickly edit data in a grid is a time saver on quick edits. It's just a great single source, universal tool working across platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac) and across all databases. The price is very reasonable for the feature set. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

Because it is based on JDBC, there are some implementation details that can be difficult when working with a proprietary feature. For example, I find editing stored procedures in SQL Server to be a little cumbersome compared to the native SQL Server Management Studio. There are some queries that it chokes on as well... again when I'm using something specific to T-SQL. In cases like that, I tend to fire up the native tool. But most of my work is done using straight up queries and for that, this tool is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Use Interface"
What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

I like DbViualizer where it is really easy to use; I recently moved to another project from 6 months where they were using DB visualizer and I didn't know anything about that, but when I started using it, it is straightforward to use and a clean tool to use, also most RDBMS support this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

I have frequently seen this issue in DbVisualizer, where it disconnects to the database often, and every time I have to reconnect. It may be some internal issue, but mostly, I faced this with Dbvisualizer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nice SQL editor"
What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

The best part of DB Visualizer is the SQL editor to pull the data from PgSQL. I love to write and execute complex queries from this editor and I never see any issues while working on this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

It is good to give multiple commander instances after launching this tool. For now, I can open one instance and not sure where is the issue. This part I don't like it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amaizing application to work with DBs in work"
What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

Almost all features are super usable. DbVisualizer is everyday software for working with Postgresql and Mysql servers.

It's easy to connect, create, delete DBs, tables, construct and debug SQL queries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

Autocompletion is poor. SQL autoformat not for all queries works well. Sometimes very hard to find a category where a necessary property is present in a very customizable configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A good graphical interface for analysis of large databases."
What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

DB-Vis allows a fantastic ability to analyze database tables more visually than your standard command-line interface. Clean, neat, and easy to read. The user interface is very intuitive compared to its competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

It would be nice to have better graphing options in the graph function of the visualizer. As of right now, I do not have any significant recommendations on how the product could be better for my purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sandra B of DbVisualizer

Hi there,

Thank you for your review of DbVisualizer! I will forward your feedback on the graph functions to our developers.
