DbVisualizer for Windows

DbVisualizer is a cross-platform database tool that aims to increase user productivity. It offers a single solution to speed development, testing, and administration of relational databases. For developers, DbVisualizer offers a range of tools to assist database development and perform tasks such as object browsing, creating, running SQL statements and SQL scripts, plus viewing and editing data.

One of the key advantages of DbVisualizer is its support for multiple databases. It supports all major commercial databases including Oracle, DB2, Mimer, SQL Server, Sybase ASE, Informix, and open-source alternatives such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, and JavaDB/Derby. This makes it a comprehensive package for those who work with multiple databases.

However, there are some limitations to be aware of. The installation process of DbVisualizer can be quite lengthy, and the software lacks certain features such as auto form completion and an SSH tunnel manager. Additionally, being based on Java, it may be more functional and useful on Windows than on Mac.

Despite these drawbacks, DbVisualizer remains a powerful tool for database development and administration. Its support for multiple databases in one package makes it a valuable asset for developers, although it may lack some key features. If you're looking for a cross-platform database tool, DbVisualizer is definitely worth considering.
