It is a good one for business users who are in no way technical and do not have any insights about the backend databases and do not have any SQL experience. They can simply go in and create queries without any SQL knowledge by just using a drag and drop way..now tell me how cool is that? :)

With regard to the two major components we used, namely the tabular representation and the graphical modeler, we were able to effectively replace the existing building blocks of our applications by integrating them. We were able to retain existing functionalities and benefit from a significant enhancement with what DHTMLX offers natively. This made it easy for us to get our end-users to adopt the change.

Alternatives Considered
In contrast, Active Query Builder was less expensive, more rapidly implemented, and received universally positive feedback from consumers. I have found that it is hard to anticipate all of the different ways that end users would want to query their data, and although I am not opposed to designing new views for end-users, it is important to keep in mind that the preferences of a single user will not be shared by all. Due to its complete visual access, Active Query Builder is the optimal choice.
