### "Great for Running SQL Queries"

April 16, 2019

5.0

Pros

This is a great product for running SQL queries. It's very easy to use and very reliable. The interface is clear. Though this product is designed for those who know how to use SQL, you can also have someone else write the query for you and you can run the query and get clear results.

Cons

You still need to know how to write a SQL query! It doesn't do short cuts for you.

Pros

As a web developer I just recently started to dabble with MySQL. It's easy to use and to setup your databases. So far so good. Very user friendly.

Cons

As a front-end developer I tend to enjoy "colorful" of "good looking" interfaces. MySQL (or anything database-related) isn't very "pretty".
