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.

It works best when you need to create basic queries or manage an simple MySQL schema. For more complicated data modeling, I'll use another tool. You can't beat the price though.

  • On the Mac version, quitting always throws an exception. More of an annoyance but still. This should have been fixed a long time ago.

Usability
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.

Quite complicated. It's unrealistic to use without prior preparation (guides on youtube or colleagues' help).

Alternatives Considered
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.

phpMyAdmin is way better only when local database is concerned but MySQL Workbench is way better then SQLyog because of the more cleaner UI and cost. SQLyog does not have any open-source featuring whereas MySQL Workbench has open source edition with lot of good free features. So MySQL Workbench is powerful than SQLyog.

  • It provides good features and saves the time.
  • When we use remote server, we can connect without using ssh etc. so saves the time and easy to understand.
  • Do not have to write the queries to check the schema, so saves the time.
