What do you like best about Mysql workbench?

This is fast tool to do any changes from backend. It gives the result through sql query which makes it faster.

I have been using this tool since 2 years when I joined current project. The best thing I like about workbench is, it is fast to modify directly in database and it results quickly.

It is very easy to setup on the system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mysql workbench?

A bit bad experience I had was, during initial days I faced some problems in installing and getting it setup in my system. When I tried to get help from support, I could not get. Thereafter I found there was some issue in private key generation and importation. I did it through ssh key generator and which helped me in getting in configured.

What problems is Mysql workbench solving and how is that benefiting you?

In my current project, I am using this tool since 2 years. In my current project, we manage SAML and OIDC protocols based profiles. We onboard SAML and OIDC applications to use SSO. Support we got one query while updating the connection configuration details from portal or tool, there is alternative database where can directly modify the profiles. It replicates everywhere immediately. So here in project, sometimes some connections are not present in database and if we do want to change in configuration of any connection which actually does not exist in database, such modifications can not be done through workbench. We can alter the changes only if apps are present in databse which database is configured in workbench. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mysql workbench?

It's a very good tool for database administration as well as designing, modeling, querying, structuring, and visualizing the data. I've used it in UniCenta POS for modifying some values which are not even changeable in the software itself. By using MySQL Workbench it's easy to view and analyze the data that has been encoded in the database and needs technical attention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mysql workbench?

I've encountered some downtime, crashes, and some bugs that I need to restart the Workbench. Some queries that need excessive usage and manipulation of a huge number of records can’t be halted sometimes. One needs to kill the instance via the Task Manager or the PID of the application via the command line interface. Probably it has something to do with the computer resources of the end user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mysql workbench solving and how is that benefiting you?

The last time I use UniCenta POS, I used the MySQL Workbench to visualize the data, edit some portion of the data, modifying the existing data that UniCenta POS has already provided but was insufficient. It helped me a lot to explain to the client that some works need to be done in order to run the business smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The enhanced and advanced UX helps a lot to experiment with queries and manage tables even without touching query code. It can manage multiple database at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mysql workbench?

The UX is great but the UI of the entire application is still backdated and a little bit complex to understand for new users. It needs to be more dynamic, user friendly and faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mysql workbench solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's providing UI to do all kinds of query and manage databases which help me a lot to write a clean query in my actual code other than it has great database design tools which are very important to design an application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface is still based on legacy design and has not been updated for ages. Nowadays when even desktop apps give a web app feel, Mysql workbench lacks to give user friendly feel to database administrators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workbench allows to manage the database connections to different servers used to host data for different projects in an effective way. It allows to group database connections into production and test server instances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mysql workbench?

Compare to DB2 or Oracle 9g, MySQL workbench has got easier UI to manage and learn. As a beginner, I have started learning DB with MySQL workbench as still use it as my backend DB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mysql workbench?

Companies have more ties with Oracle DB so enterprise level nowadays everyone using Oracle more often but also legacy applications are based on MySQL config which needs current support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mysql workbench solving and how is that benefiting you?

To start learning DB from scratch it would be challenging here MySQL workbench would be really helpful as it has got easy UI and MySQL queries are easier to write. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
