DbVisualizer Reviews

Easy to management a variety of disparate database systems.

Doing a lot in MongoDB these days; one of the few systems DbVis doesn't support. It's a Java app and can be a bit slow at times.

DBVisualizer is our daily tool for querying databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server and Informix. It has many handy features like exporting Data to various formats, importing Data from Excel and CSV, auto completition, or editing result sets.

Not much to complain about, but application startup can take a while with a huge sql history.

Good visualization, good use of memory and easy to back out of queries.

I wish copying values from a result set would put commas between the values and single quotes like SQL developer does.

Its intuitive to use and allows more over the GUI than other software. Its a breeze to use this solution for multiple DBs of Type (pgSQL/MSSQL).

A bit difficult is the use of the Java Connectors. Some do not give all possibilities of the vendors ODBC driver.

I love it's ease of use connecting, navigating and querying. The query builder feature is a great way to start on complex joins without having to type a lot. :-)

The viewing of relationships and references or anything looking like an ERD is quite unintuitive and clunky.

Great table / view navigation. Integrates easily with a wide range of databases, and support for others can be added pretty easily. I've used DbVisualizer with everything from Presto to SQLite over the years and it just works.

The autocomplete function is a little overzealous at times.

Ease of use and rich functionality a.o. the Monitor function

Actually i could think of any function I miss

Export feature is awesome. SQL editor is good and helper comes to hand. Live data edit etc... Just love DbVisualizer.

I haven't found anything that I don't like this much. Like I said I'm very comfortable using this software.

DB Visualizer is very easy to use. It's great that you can save your queries and even if the software is closed and you had forgotten to save the query, it will remember it when the software loads.

Sometimes the software performs slow with many open queries.

Query time mentioned along with the results made me write faster queries and importing exporting is much easier and can be done with in the connections

Tabs wont be opened in seperate tab unless we select that option with a right click and also if connection fails it doesn' give much details

Data Analysis is fast and easy; Easy to find table/field information and to pull sample data during development.

Seems like some of the sql keywords valid for the selected database don't always work in dbvisualizer.

I've been using DbVisualizer for over 10 years. Across multiple companies and across multiple roles, it's my preferred tool for looking at the database.

The UI was always OK at best, but recent updates have turned that around entirely.

Ease of use with multiple tabs, options for downloading results, DDL easily accessible.

Require password to run queries in selected environments, or other warning controls to prevent unwanted commands in sensitive environments.

Works in many different environments. Easy to install and setup. Quick learning curve

All my settings are now and then lost at a customer installation. Properly due to a change in the server setting, but anyway annoying .

DB Visualizer makes it easy to run SQL queries against multiple systems quickly and easily. My productivity has improved because of how well it works.

I have not had any problems with DbVisualizer.

Its very easy to use and also the query execution is cool with errors showing. Also the db export and import is a lot easier and in all types of formats.

The only thing is that the connections get lost easily.

It's faster than HANA studio to handle SAP HANA DB data.

ERD (Table reference diagram) is sometimes shown differently from actual.

I have to connect to multiple databases every day, from SQL to DB2 and it's great that I can do it under one interface.

I would like a faster way to export data to csv.

DbVisualizer is a great tool for database querying. Very easy to setup and use. Has some pretty nice features.

There is not really anything which I don't like.

Work with different types of databases is nearly the same and i can use variables in SQL requests.

I would like to edit the column descriptions just in Place.

I was able to get DbVisualizer up and running very quickly. The interface is intuitive and I didn't need to consult documentation until I need more advanced features such as variables.

Creating and editing connections could be easier to use, but I don't do that very often.

I like easy of setup and use of the product

Ideally could support DNS to find DB when ID address changes

Easy to use Exportable to PHP queries Queries runs quick

Difficult to make quick relations/queries comparing e.g. Microsoft Access

DbVisualizer nos brinda una organizacion de nuestras bases de datos de gran nivel para poder analizar de una forma mas comoda estas, ademas su gran variedad de motores de bases de datos que soporta y que se puede integrar lo hace una gran opcion sin importar el motor que se use.

DbVisualizer deberia de permitir exportar partes o secciones de la estructura de bases de datos en imagen o en formatos de varias paginas para Bases de Datos grandes.

One of the features that I like the most from Dbvizualizer is the ability to generate a nice ER diagram from the connected DB and even for specific DB objects.

The only thing I have noticed is that it may be too high-consuming resources for older computers. Also when I run it in Linux the app will crash every once in a while.
