Rapid SQL vs. Spyder

Rapid SQL can be used from our notebooks connecting to a SQL Server allowing us to test performance issues and provide insight on how to fix them.

Spyder is well suited if you're limited on hardware. You have to work with single code file. You need to quickly write some code and test it. Apart from this if you want to have a look at your variables then you can make use of Spyder. If you're working with Anaconda navigator then this can be the best to start with as it can be installed with single click there.

• Robust
• Simple to use
• Affordable

• Debugging of your existing code
• Generates figures very quickly as part of a figures tab which lets users understand results quickly
• Different layouts are available for the software which will give the users freedom to decide what layout works best for them

• User base support is not as great as MySQL, SQL Server, and Oracle.
• The included editor could be refined. I notice some of the reserved words were not highlighted.

Incentivized

• Colors in code format
• Add a broadcast to share the project with friends
• Contains more than one important language such as Python

It is fairly straightforward to use. Pretty much good to go as soon as you install it. The IDE itself is very user friendly, and it is only limited by whatever limitations Python has as a language. Great for those who want to run their scripts quickly or do some Python programming without fussing.

Support is outstanding and gets answers quickly when confronted at a client site with an issue.

Most of data scientists or data engineers are either using ec2 on the cloud or Atom or PyCharm locally. It is a bit hard to find people who are still using Spyder and have the sight of the IDE and can help you to answer your question.

The IT department uses it so we adopted the software. I would have chosen SQL Server myself.

I have chosen Spyder because it's free and open-source that comes with properly documented comments in the code. I have been using Spyder for more than 2 years and it always feels good to work with Spyder every time start my work. In Spyder, we have three windows one for man code window, idle window, and the other is for running your code and analyze. So to test a particular code I use the idle window to see what is going to be the result when I use this set of codes. That the main reason, I use Spyder.

• A great debugger that saved me a lot of time
• The editor was not very user-friendly as some of the reserved words need to be highlighted
• It's not as costly compared to Oracle, so it's a great value product

• Less time spent on employee training.
• Limited integration with Git.
• No tools for repository.
