DBeaver Reviews

It is easy to navigate and query through many DB models

Sometimes connection gets down, and reconnection process takes time

- Easy to use and get trained for reading and writing SQL queries
- can retrieve all kinds of data through queries

- Export function could be easy to understand
- Sometimes, you have to navigate the different functionalities

Even in its Community Edition, it has all the basic features to successfully work on small to medium-sized projects; you can use it in bigger projects as well but you will probably need to pair with some other tools or buy a commercial license. Paid licenses prices are quite affordable comparing to some other vendors. You can work on multiple databases at once thanks to the tabbed interface, and you can customize panels rearranging (almost) all the tools.

Sometimes the UI can feel a bit too cluttered and new users might be a bit overwhelmed. It can take some time to get used to it.

It is easy to connect and configure different DB accesses

Nothing specific I dislike, it has accomplished with all my needs

Intuitive and time-saving auto completion is a life-saver.

Occasionally slightly flaky UI (especially in Linux it seems)

Good user interface, great integrations, works nicely.

Tips feature on startup isn’t what I needed.

DBeaver helped us in connecting our different databases under one client.

It may work on its intellisense feature as there is issue with some of the databeses.

The easy way of get new connections and just by clicking on them your are connected to your database

It's fast and easy to use, you can acceses with so many languages

It has a great user interface and pretty much-advanced features like query execution plan analysis database backup and restores the user interface is customizable so it's great.

There is not a single thing about DBaever that I dislike.

The fact that Dbeaver makes it possible the access of any kind of database makes it a very useful and important software.

Everything about Dbeaver is just very perfect to me coz it meets all my needs

It supports connecting to a huge number of database engines which makes it very useful as it reduces your dependency on multiple tools to achieve the same goal.
The query result pane is very user-friendly and feature-rich too as it allows you to filter results, store them in different formats, generate queries based on them and a lot more in a single pane while meeting the user-friendliness goals.
The auto-completion is just fantastic as it always suggests the best and the most relevant results.
Creating projects is also supported which makes DBeaver a must-have for database developers and database administrators.
The updates are frequent enough to deal with the bugs and reported issues and also to add new features to this amazing database management tool.

The default shortcuts could be improved to match the more mainstream tools on the market but as you can edit and customise them, I don't see a huge problem here.

complex operations such as setting relations, key words primary keys.. these things can be easily done with dbeaver and there is a space in this tool which allow you to run separate queries as sections or instances and also save and categories all the queries so that you could use it in future and the connection setup is also good based on other applications which you have to go through complex steps and all
and if you wanna edit the schema of a particular table all the functions are available in it with specific instructions so that you won't get stuck in between.
and if you are stuck somewhere there are plenty of forum's with which you could find instant helps and all

user interface isn't that much of an engaging type,would have been better if they improve the UI

Ability to use it for multiple different environments and multiple different DBs and languages, seemless switching between them

A bit hard to setup initially and get use to, it was a slight divestiture for other applications and a far way from what I was use to at the time in MS SQL Server Management Studio, but it was quick to get use to

We can easily use this software to connect any database solutions. We are currently using to connect Postgres, Yellowbrick and VoltDB where the jdbc drivers can be automatically download from the driver location. Even the Hadoop connect also supported using this tool which is really awesome

Sometimes we are feeling the software will get stuck when we are querying for larger dataset especially when we are using this for the analytics querries. Performance tuning should be taken care.

The most I liked about this software was Cloud engineering.

The least I liked about this software was the features.

A unique tool for use with almost all database systems

A bit more clarity in the user interface

The product has support to connect to almost all kinds of DBs. Connectors are available for all. You can easily package your queries, import/export scripts, execute/write scripts, navigate db schemas, views, functions, tables.
DBeaver is a complete package for DB access and management.

Only one thing to improve is if the db connection is invalidated and you run a query, it takes a lot of time to validate the connection and run the query. It gets stuck sometimes.
