dbForge Studio (Edge) vs. DataGrip

Whenever a user or DBA wants to compare schematics between two environments, dbForge is extremely helpful. This is useful during version or framework upgrades, a database upgrade, patch implementations, service package implementations, or any time to environments would be different. The time it would take to write and execute queries, and then compare is exponentially longer than it takes with dbForge, where this is done and you have an application that allows you to quickly identify incongruities.

It is undoubtedly one of the best database management programs. It dramatically simplifies database management and administration. Its extensive support for various database engines is a point to highlight when we talk about DataGrip; you will like having such a powerful resource much as we do.

• Compare entire or subset of MySQL tables between databases
• Configure comparison rules
• Sync data between compared databases depending on differences
• Save comparison rules for reuse and sharing
• Break down differences between missing/new records, or different records
• See differences highlighted per field
• Execute sync immediately, or save as an SQL script file
• Command-line tool that can be used to add comparisons to deploy scripts

Incentivized

• Connects to most of the db engines known
• auto complete is powerful and db objects introspection is complete
• one place for all your db connections

• [The] installation error I've already reported (ABARTN).xml [could use some improvement]. This has to do with Windows Defender (the default Windows anti-virus) not allowing the installation on the default installation directory of dbForge Studio [for SQL Server], thus the error. [With] the workaround, [I] was to disable the anti-virus for the duration of the installation, then turn it back on when the installation [was] been completed.
• [I would like to see] better defined licensing models for larger teams (seated vs. name licenses).

• Can be a memory hog
• No free community version with limited functionality

Perfect other than a way to handle saving and re-using queries. A simple/better way of creating a pool of queries for each project or database connection would be very helpful. It is not bad now, just could be a better. I have used Navicat for MySQL in the past it had that feature. It could save all your queries to the cloud and you could use them on any device.

Although experience here is limited, as only one question has been asked and answered promptly, the registration and licensing process was very smooth and professional. There are forums online that discuss dbForge issues, as well as a Facts and Questions section on dbForge's website, so product support does seem to exist if needed.

I would say that dbForge equals or beats most of the abilities of the other tools I evaluated at the time. dbForge had better support (Devart), and regular feature updates. dbForge has better tools for data comparison and import/export. The price tag is slightly higher, but renewals rates are pretty good. It's a quality tool that still is well worth the cost.

DataGrip is the most widely used software for simplified data management; we can know what is missing and what is leftover. The interface is straightforward and with a lot of security in its use of the system. All this has been its plus point.

• We perform better and faster syncing analysis between databases.
• We update running mysql databases faster and more efficiently.
• Especially with MySQL Workbench we had immense irritations due to all the crashes during the day. With dbForge Studio we finally had a power tool which is stable and does not crash constantly.

Incentivized

• Less time to develop database structures
• Easy to filter and find data
• Export data for reporting purposes
