Really great database tool Really positive experience with a great product that I can recommend to anybody that works with different databases.Pros Really easy to use with many different databases and auth options. Have not yet found any thing that can’t be done.Cons Java setup and dependencies can be a bit tricky on some setups, but I have it working on both windows and Linux, so not that bad.
