Aqua Data Studio Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Tech Support Analyst at Cibernética, S.A.4.5I use Aqua Data Studio for daily database queries and analysis, appreciating its compatibility with multiple DBMSs and user-friendly interface. However, it's somewhat generic, lacking specific features for certain databases and could improve its cloud capabilities.
