Kevin Shah - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Data Scientist at Evolvision Technologies
Browser-based SQL access has streamlined team collaboration but still needs faster queries and better ML integration
CloudBeaver AWS can be improved because in rendering of the queries, if it is very complex or big, the responses in the browser get slowed down. Compared to DBeaver of desktop, it is noticeably very slower on the browser of AWS and heavy data engineering can be done, but it will have very slow responses configured altogether. That needs to be maintained. Even there is no connectivity of machine learning, MLflow kind of thing where Airflow or PySpark approaches can be integrated. Python pipelines can be created but the whole end-to-end machine learning pipeline gets stuck whenever we work out with DBeaver. That again is one of the issues that I would look out for to improve. Also, I need to maintain the infrastructure perfectly here. I need to manage it and need to identify the risks as well. The whole proper setup of VPCs or IAMs needs to be done. It is not a NLQ kind of thing. User queries need to be configured in manual approaches, not automated currently. It should be automated now. Debugging is very painful. That again is a vague approach here. Errors can be executed and we will not be getting out the clarity as well. During this whole approach, the logs are not perfect and intuitive and debugging is also very limited. The user interface and documentation look good, but I would still suggest improvements.

Consolidates tools and streamlines cross-platform database work
There is not a lot that I have to complain about with DbVisualizer. Over the years, as I have mentioned, they have continued to enhance the interface and the databases that are supported, but I do not think there is a lot of room for improvement. Most improvements will come from changes in the marketplace, such as new database features that need to be interacted with or perhaps more support for new data types and databases that are going to be supporting AI. Some of that, as we have seen thus far, is not necessarily the game changer that we would have thought. Integrating a co-pilot for SQL queries would be an interesting feature in the future.

"Actions like exporting grids to Excel or other tools is a very easy task."
"Timed SQL execution and real-time graphs are the killer features."
"For over 10 years I have been a frequent DbVisualizer user, it is very comfortable and has some features not found in any other SQL tool."
"Timed queries that add their result to the result grid for every execution are helpful."
 

Cons

"The performance of CloudBeaver AWS can sometimes lag when making connections."
"While CloudBeaver AWS meets most of our needs, there are a few areas where it could be improved."
"CloudBeaver AWS can be improved because in rendering of the queries, if it is very complex or big, the responses in the browser get slowed down; compared to DBeaver of desktop, it is noticeably very slower on the browser of AWS and heavy data engineering can be done, but it will have very slow responses configured altogether."
"CloudBeaver AWS already covers most core database management needs very well, but a few improvements could make it even better for teams working with real-time systems and cloud monitoring."
"In terms of drawbacks, CloudBeaver AWS's cloud instances are slower than what local solutions provide. Debugging is not smooth or effective compared to what other databases provide."
"CloudBeaver AWS could be better if the official documentation were not sometimes too high-level."
"CloudBeaver's web interface slows down or freezes when handling complex queries, for example, with large PL/pgSQL statements or large complex CTEs that can reach 500 lines of queries."
"One thing I would like to see changed is having the JDBC drivers in a fixed location outside of the application package."
"Sometimes, I feel that the startup time takes a bit more time than needed."
