The AIO DB client that does it all (or most)

  • April 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use of the product and the ability to integrate with almost every possible DB Engine, along with the UX and look 'n feel are great. Also it has great functionality like ER Diagramming and is a great tool for all round database interactions. Also the incremental fetch is a great functionality.
It will provide most JDBC drivers to connect to most DB engines and download automatically to use on a new connection.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, as every Java based client it gets a little slow from time to time and can crash if you do some heavy load tasks. Also, the uninstalling and upgrading might be a little tricky depending on each case.
It is stable, yet it might crash while working if your workload is too high. It might freeze also. Anyway, check your memory usage and workload. E.G. Runing a query that brings billions of rows might not be a good idea even though you have incremental fetch.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Relational Warehouse modeling, transactional warehouse modeling, query and ER Diagramming for investigation. Also for some PL/SQL programming it is a great tool.
I am mostly modeling relational warehouses, creating semantic layers on top of physical modeling, developing stored procedures to use as part of ETL. Nowadays, it is my main database client tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Know your JDBC and ODBC drivers. You need elevated permissions to install missing drivers as DBeaver will not provide the drivers for all DB Engines.

Everything in One Place

  • January 26, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to switch between databases and servers, even across multiple languages! Setting up servers is intuitive and easy. The keyboard shortcuts are nice, so I can easily query multiple items without every taking my hands off the keyboard. The interface that comes up makes adding rows to a table extremely simple! Furthermore, they even have automatic query generation for simpler queries so this isn't just for developers but also for operations. The syntax highlighting is nice as well, making it much simpler to read queries because words change color based on context. The errors are easy to understand and help you figure out how to fix your broken queries!
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd love to be able to use Vim keyboard shortcuts while writing/editing my queries! Sometimes there seems to be an issue with VPN connections while using the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
DBeaver makes connecting to multiple servers seamless and easy! The amount of time and memory I save by having everything in one easy to use tool is awesome.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
DBeaver is great though I have had some issues regarding VPN while using it. Don't know which side is at fault for this though!

Good DB Connector Application...

  • January 21, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a very robust application, allowing me to easily look at our Postgres database, as well as look at other sources. One really great feature that is often used is the ability to open CSV files and treat them as databases as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface is really difficult to use. It almost seems like a throwback to the 90's and that old Windows 98 tree view. For instance, I have to make 6 clicks just to get to my table that I am wanting! One other thing that is an annoyance is that my company had to get the Enterprise Edition in order to be able to see JSON data types as a JSON structure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use DBeaver every day, in the assistance of developing our application that we are developing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
My only gripe with it is its user interface. I think that if DBeaver took some usability cues from platforms like Navicat; this would be a perfect application. Other than that, this is a very solid application that is solving a lot of our database management needs. I really appreciate that they have both an Open Source version of it as well as a Paid version of the application.

DBeaver - Good Query tool to use with multiple Databases support

  • January 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to auto complete sql queries and execute them according to the database .
I use Oracle and DBeaver works without the semi colon at end of SQL query. (annoying SQL Developer throws errors).
the keyword auto completion according to the database used is good feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
The stale connection reset takes more time. If a connection became stale, the query tool should disconnect or reconnect - it should not wait until we execute the next SQl query.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use the DBeaver for querying databases in multiple databases and environments.

Good SQL db client

  • December 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is simple and easy to use. Provides different driver options to use (Microsoft JDBC, inbox). Ability to test connections and have multiple databases connected at the same time.
What do you dislike about the product?
There could be more new-user friendly features. Setting up new db connection could be more easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Accessing SQL databases for software development and product quality testing.

Ideal versatile product for DBA

  • October 31, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like about the tool is that it is free, I can download it and use it without problems, it is easy to install and the best of all is that it allows me to manage and control different servers with different versions and database managers
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it becomes slow for deployment
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my work we manage postgres, mysql and oracle and although we work mostly by console, sometimes we need to work graphically, as do users, the great advantage of DBEAVER is that I can manage the same program in different handlers of database, without having to have one installed for each one.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a versatile tool that makes life easier for any database administrator, although it is also perfect for developers or anyone who likes the world of databases is simple and convenient

DBeaver makes it very easy to look at the data across multiple database management system.

  • October 24, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I work will both SQL Server and DB2 and I am constantly migrating data from DB2 to SQL server. Previously to view a table in the DB2, I had to use Informatica to migrate it to SQL server, but with DBeaver, I can simply connect it to DB2 and view it. It has saved a lot of time
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I dislike about DBeaver is that it is not visually pleasing and a little difficult to navigate. So, if they make DBeaver easier to navigate, I believe it will attract more users. Right now to execute a query you have to generate a query, copy it and then execute it. I think there are a few things that can be made simpler.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has saved a lot of time because I can look at how the data is stored in other systems without migrating it as it is to the staging database. This has helped me a lot to get faster at data cleaning phase
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are like me working with multiple databases and who works in Data Warehousing or is an ETL developer, DBeaver will make your life much easier. It is a great tool which you can use to connect to various DBMS from one place.

a database very complete

  • August 30, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The many configurations with several database drives.
It's easy to use and the community version is enought to use in a professional way
What do you dislike about the product?
The application run in the java virtual machine, and if you don run it in a good laptop or pc, is possible that dbeaver finishes with the RAM memory
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my job we use many connections with differens database systems, and dbeaver helps me to have all connections and projects organized
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a good option if you look for free software, but there are better database clients more expensives

Clean and easy to use

  • July 30, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
DBeaver is a great tool. I use it to run queries on our database. I'm a pretty beginner level but have run some deeper analyses and it's very useful. Also, the UI is fairly straightforward with only a few exceptions (read dislikes)
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of icons did not make sense to me at first like having a lightening bolt as the "execute" button, but it might be due to my inexperience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting quick data points to share with internal and external stakeholders

DBeaver is a good database connector

  • May 24, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
DBeaver effectively assembles multiple DB connections into a single app. You can also simply distinguish different environment by assigning colors to them, so you'll instantly recognize wether you're executing queries on a development or a production database. It's a very useful feature that prevents (or at least diminish) executing queries on the wrong machine
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not always responsive, and also it takes a very long time to display a query result if you have related tabled (since it tries to create links between the FKs to make you quickly navigate between the tables). This function, enabled by default, greatly increases the time required to render the result grid. I then recommend you to disable this function (if you don't need it) from connection properties > Result Sets > Untick Read Table References
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
DBeaver simplifies database connections, especially if you have to connect to multiple databases, optimizing your time at work
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You'll enjoy using DBeaver, it's a solid software, even if it rarely hangs or slow down.
