Navicat vs. ApexSQL by Quest

I was tasked with migrating data from our local PostgreSQL DB to an Amazon RDS instance. I expected this to be a difficult job, but Navicat's migration wizard made it fairly straightforward. I think that it's more geared towards professional users, although not necessarily database practitioners. Non pros might do better with the new Navicat Lite edition.

As soon as I start developing a new query or script, I just need to type my keywords and then all the basic for my work is already there. Just need to worry for the pesonalization. Also, I can have a template for very different scenarios, also the code suggestions, makes my code review and any error debug easier

• Need to improve on optimization sometimes it take too much time during data loading and unloading
• The IDE comes in web browser.It should develop its own IDE to write code
• I don't particularly appreciate that there is no way to get all data for any records

There is quite a lot to learn because Navicat Premium is a very comprehensive database management and development tool, but it's User Interface is intuitive enough to pick up fairly quickly. I have also referred to the documentation on occasion, and can attest that it is quite good. I feel that it works best on a large monitor, but that's fairly common for this sort of software.

Very robust online community and well as excellent support staff. Easy to follow video tutorials. Detailed sample configurations are provided with guided walk-throughs via remote classroom instruction. Very fast response from support staff. No internal hires were necessary for support as vendor support staff fully met all technical expertise. 24/7 incident reporting and tracking is great.

While Sequel Pro is a great shareware tool, it's limited to MySQL databases; while our department does use MySQL databases, we also use Oracle databases, so Navicat Premium's multi-product support is an absolute requirement. Navicat Premium also provides data browser support, including filtering, to empower less technically-minded users to query and manipulate databases, an option not available in Sequel Pro. And the job scheduling and batching features of Navicat Premium further distinguish it above the admirable, if limited, Sequel Pro.

It's free to use and it has a lot of unique features like tab navigation, Coloring of tabs, Execution alerts, helps in automatically writing query and the best what I liked in ApexSQL is fast database creating,tables auto fill.i recommend giving the tools a try as i think you will find them very useful
