### "Best-in-market & go-to-choice for database development. "

July 27, 2022

5.0

DBVisualizer is game-changer while evaluating expensive products for collecting various data. It is one of the much-needed tool that makes it easy to modify database schema and then run queries against them.

Pros

Simple and easy-to-navigate the data using the tables and that is provided with a clear graphical representation. The most amazing feature is that I can easily switch multiple switch DB instantly without facing any problems. Fast searching, duplication, SSH tunnelling are the other great features offered by the tool.

Cons

The tool is bit expensive. The quick object filtering feature seems to be confusing enough as I don't have enough idea to use it in an effective manner. For beginners, sometimes it would be difficult to navigate to the configuration section.

This product is extremely easy to use; it is visually appealing (especially with dark mode thank god!) and is light on my comp usage

Haven't run into any cons at this time. The only thing I would like to see as a UX improvement would be the ability to group tabs

### "Great tool for database analysis and design"

April 22, 2020

4.0

Overall Dbvizualizer has been a very useful tool that I have been using for several years whenever I need to visually work or understand the database that I'm working with. Very easy to use, intuitive features and I'm sure anybody will find some useful features in it.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

### "Using with DB2 (z/OS and LUW), PostgreSQL and Hive everyday."

July 28, 2020

5.0

Pros

Responsive interface. Complete set of features for metadata exploration. Easy to organize and categorize connections. Ctrl-C, Export and visualization works. Functions column types, DDL, data types, sum/aggregations easily accessible from the data grid. Multiple connections with multiple tabs and splittable in many ways. Clear and highly-customized interface. SQL-complete works perfectly. With DB2, Watson, ETL tools/SPSS and DBVis, I have a full-spectrum set of of tools for my daily work and productivity.

Cons

If I have to state one, it was the amount of confirmation dialog on my first executions of the program. But after checking them off, they go away and I am fine.

We started using DBvis in 2013 and have 15 active users. As an admin / person in charge of the renewal of the license we are very satisfied

earlier the renewal was a bit complicated and as license keys expire on a yearly basis, the deployment of the new keys is complicated

### "Straightforward way for navigating and managing databases"

September 29, 2020

5.0

DB Visualizer is an effective way for management and querying of enterprise databases.

Pros

Clean interface with no wasted controls or whitespace--everything you need to inspect the database, query the data therein, and other functions is right out front and simple for anyone with a SQL background.

Cons

Functions could prompt the user for their input parameters in a more obvious way. The database connection wizard cannot always be trusted to select the right settings for you, and the error messaging from an incorrectly configured connection are not always helpful.
