Integrates with many databases, clean GUI, and provides valuable real-time graphs
Like most people working with databases, we initially used the vendors' tools. These included applications like SQL Plus, PL/pgSQL, etc. They all are a bit limited and all respond differently to edits. Tools like Toad, PL/pgSQL developer, pgAdmin, and DBeaver have been in use but no tool could win here. Maybe some other tool has more options in a specific database but a lot of people have trouble finding them because of the cluttered interface. There are buttons for every feature. Here, DbVisualizer, shows strong and smart use of context menus, making the GUI a lot cleaner than most similar tools.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Actions like exporting grids to Excel or other tools is a very easy task."
"Timed queries that add their result to the result grid for every execution are helpful."
"The solution improved our site reliability."
"RabbitMQ provides access to SDKs for development and the ability to raise and log tickets if we encounter issues. We can integrate RabbitMQ using various languages like Java or Python using the provided SDKs."
"The loading speed is very good."
"Scalability is simple because it's an MPP database. If you need more processing power or you need more storage, you just add a few more nodes in the cluster. It works on common commodity hardware. You can use any type of server. You don't need to have proprietary hardware. It's fairly flexible."
"Companies can scale the solution, so long as they have server room."
"We have been able to set up a messaging system that facilitates data integration between the software modules that we sell."
"It can be configured to be a very fast message broker. I like the stability, the built-in admin tools and plugin architecture."
"Very sophisticated routing control and priority messaging capabilities"
 

Cons

"Sometimes, I feel that the startup time takes a bit more time than needed."
"One thing I would like to see changed is having the JDBC drivers in a fixed location outside of the application package."
"If you have a user consuming a huge load of resources, it takes down the entire system."
"Their implementation is quite tricky. It's not that easy to implement RabbitMQ as a cluster."
"Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient."
"If you're outside IP address range, the clustering no longer has all the features which is problematic."
"Extra filters would be helpful."
"VMware Tanzu Greenplum needs improvement in the memory area and improved methods for quick access to the disc. So, one of the quick goals of Greenplum must work on enhancing access to the disc by adding hints in the database."
"They should add more analytics. Their documentation could also be improved so that I don't have to bother my co-workers and tech support so often."
"It doesn't have any GUI-based monitoring tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"A license with a few years of support is a good and valuable option."
"The pricing for DbVisualizer is fair."
"Since the tool is an open-source product, there is no need to pay anything."
"It is an open-source product."
"Pricing is good compared to other products. It's fine."
"On a scale of one to five, with five being the most competitive pricing, I would rate this solution as a four."
"It’s an open-source solution."
"This is an open source solution."
"We are using the open-source version of this solution."
