Hi, this is simply a fan letter. I've used DbVisualizer in the past, and I
recently
downloaded the 6.5 free version to deal with my mySql database, and...it works
perfectly and right out of "the box." I expected no less, but I wanted to tell
you how great your product is nonetheless.
David Goldhirsch, Senior Software Engineer
I've used your pro version as well, and it's even better--it's incredibly convenient for editing data in tables. And it is very, very usable. Example of the latter is that each connection/SQL window has a visible (and changeable) max number of rows to return. So simple and useful--and, try to accomplish this using Oracle's free GUI database tool...not at all simple! Anyhow, when circumstances warrant it I'll surely get a pro license. It's cheap for what you get. Thanks for having a great product. |

You might remember I was having trouble using dbvis with daffodilDB...
Although I will be switching, I'm still using daffodilDB, but I just
needed to tell you that I am very pleased with your 6.5 work. It's
nicely polished, works completely with daffodilDB now and the extra
features, etc. really make for a nice tool - one of a kind I think...

I am sure you get loads of this type of email however here's another one!
Without wanting to write an essay all I can say is WOW!
The Personal version of DBVis is outstanding. I have been using the free
version since v1x and have just purchased 6.5, it has blown me away.
Had I known what features are available in the Personal version I would
have bought it ages ago and upgraded to each new version.

Kudos to the DbVisualizer development team for such an outstanding product.
I have been a customer of DB Visualizer Professional for 6 years and I
appreciate the constant effort you put into the product year in and year out.
I use the product for many different development utilities I write and it
has proved invaluable. Truly an Enterprise caliber product priced very
aggressively. Thanks again!

Just want to give all you developers a big fat hug. What a splendid product
DbVisulaizer is! The user-predictive interface saves me tons of time! (And
I'm not just saying this because I'm high on Mt. Dew soda (ok maybe a little
bit (but not too much!)))

Just wanted to say what a great job you guys are doing with db visualizer.
I've been using it for years.
As a java developer, I've worked for many companies over the years,
and used lots of different databases.
DB Visualizer is such a great tool, I don't know how I'd do my job
without it.

Subject: BeautiFULL software to work with databases
Dhana kumar
DbVisualizer is really nice and UI interface very good One can easily expert in querying database with this software, even if he/she is new to the database. |
|
Thanks to the DbVisualizer team for the great product! We have been
evaluating similar tools and this one stands out due to its simplicity,
robustness and, very importantly, to its support for many database
vendors. The responsive and friendly interface, makes it a not only a
great example for Java applications, but also a tool that greatly
enhances productivity for everyday tasks of administering multiple
databases. The Query Builder for example saves a great deal of time to
creating/reverse engineering queries in a very intuitive manner. Saved
us considerable time and greatly helped us in our work of supporting an
International Humanitarian Organization. Strongly recommended.
Keep up the great work!

Thanks, DBVisualizer 6.0.10 people!
Eric C. Anderson
It's a great product, and I don't know what I'd do without it. Pity the fools Still typing their SQL in at the Unix command line. Have been using it for at least three years now and it gets better and better. That's I just renewed the license. It's funny, where I work we have a lot of software from Scandinavia: 1) MySql & DBVisualizer from Sweden 2) FAST ESP from Norway 3) Linux from Finland Keep up the good work, and thanks for the great software and beautiful women. But please keep your lutefisk! |

However, let me say OUTSTANDING PRODUCT! I am truly happy and impressed. I
waffled about the price for a while (buying it for personal use). And I hate
to admit that after purchasing I think it is worth far more. That's not to
say that I didn't buy for a long time due to the price point.
FedEx - Matt Maher
The other thing about the price... I didn't know what I was getting into. The differences between the free and paid-for product are not clear. If you have an opportunity, have all features in the "full" visible but non-working in the free version. There are SO MANY features in the full version I had no idea at all were going to be available. I would have bought almost immediately had I known Just a little customer thoughts. Either way. The best quote I can give you is "WOW". I'm a lead developer at FedEx and I'm working my organization to install this application as a standard, it's simply so good. With any luck that will mean a bit more business for you and money for your well-deserved coffers. Thanks So Much! |

As someone who deals with multiple datasets from multiple data sources,
DbVisualizer has proven to be quite useful and easy to use for my
database needs. I've worked with other programs in the past and
learned to adjust to their idiosyncracies. In contrast, I've found
DbVisualizer to be much more user friendly and responsive to my needs.
I've recommended the program to others doing similar work and found
they were as pleased as myself.

Just a note to say that I used the export to HTML feature of DBVIz today
to develop some nice analytics for a new application... it was well-received
by the management who said "we have been waiting for this stuff forever.".
Thanks for making me look good...

hey guys, i've been using dbV for a bit now and i just wanted to let you know
that i really appreciate this wonderful tool. it may not mean much to some,
but to me, i think what you guys are doing is awesome! i'm glad that the free
version is robust because after using it for a while i know that should I get
the opportunity to talk my company into buying a db tool - i will recommend
dbV so keep up the great work - that's all.

We have used dbVisualizer for a while now, and could not live without it.
The product is outstanding and rich, and does neither too much nor too little.
The ability to export to Excel is also one of those features I happened upon
and think is great. The product just gets better and better, and we love it.

As a software consultant, your DB Vis is a priceless tool for quickly
understanding assorted databases. No surprise here.
Grant
Yesterday, your software caused something completely unexpected. During my first visit to a flooring software company to discuss moving their database to MySQL, I fired up DB Vis and connected to their IBM DB2. The in-house dev's were impressed and filled with questions about YOUR software instead of mine. I wasted almost the entire hour poking around DB Vis with them instead of discussing their database requirements. They are accustomed to IBM's DB Commander and phpMyAdmin. |

Subject: I love DbVisualizer 5.0
John Stanford White
I am a licensed user of DbVisualizer 5.0. I am very pleased with the product. As I get to know it, the better it gets. As a programmer, I can appreciate the excellence the design and implementation of this program. My license fee was indeed well spent. |
|
Kudos to the team of the Dbvis.
Sid Meeta
I have been evaluating it on personal oracle for a small DW assignment. I am now going to see how well i can use it to port to local Ms-Sql server. I have especially liked its DBA features (monitoring, plan execution, recent plans on server) & overall its way better than Toad. |
|
I completely loved DBVisualizer and have already purchased it.
Irakli
Congratulations with an amazing tool. Well done! Sorry that I am not answering your specific questions but your team obviously has a very good understanding of what such tool needs to be like so I would not be able to add anything. Just wanted to say thank you and keep up the good work! |

I've been using DbVisualizer as a developer for about 5 years now. It has never
failed to impress me as one of the most useful tools in my toolbox. As a
consultant I've used it with almost every database implementation that exists,
all without fail. I am very excited to see that "Explain Plan" is now supported
in 5.0. It's not often that a tool can be so useful for so long to a developer.
I've tried all of the others, but I always come back to DbVisualizer. Keep up
the great work!

DbVisualizer's features and pricing helped make it the standard data access tool
in our organization. Its value allowed us to put a powerful tool on more desktops
than we could with competing products.

Having had my 30-day evaluation period of TOAD I was left with the
choice of paying $795 for a product which I used 20% of the features
80% of the time or resorting back to using Oracle's Database
Administration Tools. Releasing I had a copy of DbVisualizer supplied
with BEA Weblogic Platform 8.1 I gave it a go. After a few hours I found
the only feature I was missing was Data editing and promptly upgraded
to DbVisualizer Personal 4.
Roger Lee
Probably the best $99 I have spent on a development tool and it saved me $696! |

Using dbvisualizer I improved my dba skills, and now I'm working on an

I truely love your product. It is awesome. As a fellow Java Developer, I am
thoroughly impressed with your GUI design and master use of Swing. Very well

I've been using DbVisualizer 2.1 for a little while now and it is a fantastic
product. Thank you for developing such a great tool.
I wanted to let you know that I've been using it successfully to connect to
Microsoft SQL Server 7 and 2000 using J-NetDirect's JSQLConnect JDBC driver
(www.j-netdirect.com). I've also connected to an older Pervasive database
(www.pervasive.com) using Pervasvive's JDBC driver. It seems that DBVisualizer
will happily use any JDBC driver and successfully connect to a database.

Subject: DBVis ROCKS!!!
Andrew Glover
Thank you for v3.0 I have just downloaded it and it looks great. I have been using DBVis with Informix (Solaris and NT) for a year now and I have NEVER had a problem. I have been using the com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver without a single problem.... Thank you very much for a wonderful product it is the easiest tools I have EVER used to manage an RDBMS! |
|
I can't believe this software is available for free. It is a tool I use daily
in software development of enterprise Java applications. A well written and
wonderful tool!

just wanted to tell you that DbVisualizer is one of the best applications
i've ever used to access a database. Congratz to the whole team for such an

I like to say thank you for the Applikation DbVisualizer Version 2.1 . I do using

for an Applikation like DbVisualizer . It's works very great , without any problems .
Thank you .

I just wanted to commend you on your DBVisualizer 2.1 release. Your free download
totally disproves the maxim, "You get what you pay for" I've been testing fairly
costly Java-based products for the past couple of months and could only dream of a
time when half of these were of the same quality as your free tool.

This is a wonderful product! I spent a disappointing 3 hours this morning on the
net looking for a JDBC explorer without any luck until I found DbVisualizer. The
design, functionality, and installation were ALL wonderfully put together. I look
forward to learning about your other products - in my opinion, you definitely have
an outstanding track record!

I downloaded DBVisualizer v2.1 a little while ago and have been playing with it...I am VERY impressed! Nice work!! My platform is a Sun UltraSPARC running 'Solaris8 with MySQL, and J2SE 1.3.1 with the mm.mysql jdbc driver. All functions work and appear stable. Please keep up the great work! |

Thanks. Great product - I wish more developers would take a shot at Swing
applications. Products such as yours and JEdit really point up the potential
for slick, professional Swing software.

Subject: DbVisualizer - an immensely useful tool
Shahid Ahmed
DbVisualizer is such a tremendously useful tool, now I can't live without it. After downloading, it took less than 5 minutes to setup. And the menus were so intuitive, it didn't take any time at all for me to start using it. I don't have to use SQL-Plus any more to see the structure or contents of tables or databases. Even I can update them from the GUI. Amazingly, it's free!!!! Thank you for this terrific tool. |

DB Visualizer is a great tool, I use it all the time. Thanks for this contribution.

I love DbVisualizer!!!
I saw TOAD on one of our DBA's wintel boxes and I thought it looked pretty
usefull. Asked around for a similar tool for linux, got blank stares ... then
I found this code on Freshmeat .. THANK YOU!
It has cut many hours off my development time. Instead of finding where I stored
those DDL files or connecting up with sqlplus or another text tool, I can just
pop up DbVisualizer and *voila*! Instant Data, DB Structure and more...

I am writing to tell you I've just downloaded DbVisualizer and I think it's excellent. I have spent 4 hours today searching the net for JDBC based query/admin/metadata tools and I think your product is way ahead of anything I found. I like the interface and it actually works, first time and easily. Within 30 minutes I have it working with both MySQL and SQL Server databases on different machines.Thank you for making good quality java tools! |

Thank you for making such a fine product. After having tried several
alternatives, I have decided to make DBVisualizer my default database viewer.

It's a great product -- love it. I use Linux as my primary dev. platform and
it's nice to have a tool which works the same for me as it does for my Win32

the best compliment I can think of for it.

Subject: I wish I had found this before I bought TOAD :-)
Art Taylor
As a Java developer, I don't have a huge need to edit stored procedures, but I do have a strong need to verify data written to the db, or to clean data already there. TOAD is overkill for my needs, but SQL*Plus is too spartan. DbVisualizer is _exactly_ the right tool for an n-tier application developer. |

I have been using dbVisualizer and I really appreciate your making this tool
freely available. Thanks!

many thanks ! AS/400 access semms to work and it looks very good now. It even
