"Excellent interface but could be better"
Version: Aqua Data Studio 3.0
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I can see where this would be terrific for very experienced SQL administrators. However, for someone like me who has fewer than half a dozen MySQL databases to manage with virtually no experience and no knowledge, this program is quite lacking. Built-in queries would be SOOO helpful. I want to see the contents of a table when I click on it without having to manuualy type in a query. Built-in search and replace within tables would be a godsend. I deal with these databases very little -- they're for things like ProFTPD user management, phpBB data, etc. -- but when I do need to deal with them I really hate having to search and search for basic commands. Adding a few features to this app would get me to shell out a few bucks (and I know this is currently freeware; what I'm saying is I'd pay for it if it were more feature-rich.) Helluva nice start for sure, but if I'm going to spen time searching out functions every time I need to do something I'll stick with phpMyAdmin and stay within one application. -
"Yes! now it's a normal application!"

Version 3 really starts to look good. It now is a 'normal' application, making it very simple to use. I connect it to an external MS SQL-server, my local MySQL and postgreSQL servers without any problems!
If you're looking for a nice GUI for you dbms, you should really give it a try!
