What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

DbVisualizer has a free version that is very full-featured. Capabilities are nearly identical with Oracle SQL Developer. The only feature I found that Developer has the DbVisualizer free doesn't is the ability to highlight a section of SQL code to execute on its own. DbVisualizer allows the programmer to set the number of rows to return. This allows one to run the full query by putting a number higher than the expected full return. The query can be reviewed on screen, then exported to CSV if desired. Developer does this differently, as it has a default 100 row limit. More rows are automatically added as one pages down in the results. An export in Developer runs the full query in the background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

There is really nothing I dislike. It would be nice if the free version had the highlight a code section to execute, especially since Oracle's SQL Developer has it and is also free, but other than that, no complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DbVisualizer:

Full-featured, easy to set up. Easy to use. Nothing to lose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have used DbVisualizer to produce database reports and generate nightly extracts. It does everything I need. I have not used it to write PL/SQL code, and so don't have any feedback on ease of use in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Gil, Thanks for the great review. I just want say that both execution of highlighted (current selection), and execute statement at caret position are supported in DbVisualizer Free (since 9.2.x).

3.5/5

Nothing to dislike..it dies what it was designed to do and is just as intuitive as Toad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Data Analytics"

5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

Easy of use, you can see the schema's for your data marts and if you're not as proficient in SQL, you can build the SQL and learn from it using the query builder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

I dislike how you can't convert back and forth between SQL editor and the query builder. Similar to how access is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DbVisualizer:

Great to extract data to build reports before the report goes into production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Using this tool to mainly extract data then exporting to other platforms to manipulate the data. Benefit is the ease of use of the tool to query without going into Cognos to build a report to get the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great database tool"

4.5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

I use the free version of this tool and it's great. The price point is right, and I'm able to do almost everything I need. It is easy to set up connections, and run queries. All in all it is very straightforward and had all the functionality I would expect from a database tool. Unlike some other tools, the interface is straightforward and easy to understand.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

The free version is lacking some capabilities (to be expected), but not so many that I feel the need to upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Database Tool!"

4/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

This is again one of great tools to use for database developers and admins. It has all database tool required features.

It can give schema, ER diagrams. Export and import functionalities work great. Connections can be stored, SSH connections also possible. We can profile the connections with different fonts, colors etc. It also has query builders, execution history features to retrieve previously executed SQLs. It runs on all operating systems so thats an advantage to use the same software even when machine is changed.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

It does all the minimum required works. The free version does not support many cool features like executing multiple sql statements etc. as its licensed version does. But that's why its free :)

"All in one Database Management Tool"

3.5/5

What do you like best about DbVisualizer?

I used this a few years ago and it really helped me when trying to manage and write queries across multiple database platforms. From that perspective, this is a good tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DbVisualizer?

It's missing some basic functionality that I wish it had like adding users and creating databases. If those features were added, this would be a 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
