This feature works perfectly well in TablePlus, you can open as many filters as you want (I’m using the happy version, for the starter version, it’s limited to only 2 filters) and run them at the same time.Īvoiding using mouse or trackpad and keeping your hands always on the keyboard is vital to boosting my productivity.
#SQLPRO STUDIO REVIEW PRO#
Sequel Pro users have been requesting multiple filters feature since 2013 but there’s no sign of implementation until now. In Sequel Pro, you can only use one filter at a time. Type my keyword in and TablePlus will automatically lookup from the database, table, schema, view, function… You can expect something like a Spotlight Search of macOS.

One of the features I love the most in TablePlus is the ability to quickly open anything with the shortcut cmd + P. It’s also easier to navigate in the app than in Sequel Pro. Just in my feeling, the UI set for TablePlus is nicer than Sequel Pro. For me, TablePlus provides exactly what it means for a quick edit. In Sequel Pro, if you want to edit a data cell, it will pop up an editing box, and that takes a little more time. The spreadsheet-like view allows you to edit the table directly without having to write queries. One of my favorite examples is the inline edit. TablePlus just takes into account so many little things that happen when you work with databases, which means, the team really pay attention to the details and the experience is very intuitive. You can see clearly while browsing the database, switching between two tables would take a couple seconds for Sequel Pro with a loading sign. It’s fast to launch and doesn’t leave much memory footprint. TablePlus was built on top of Swift, Objective-C, C/C++, Perl for OSX allowing the app to take advantage of the native elements of the system to provide a very fast experience. I can use it to manage databases, tables, structures, indexes… For me, it provides a well-rounded solution to work with MySQL. It’s very easy to set up and get direct access to the MySQL databases on local and remote servers. It’s fast, easy to use, stable, and open source. I work with MySQL a lot, and I indeed need a really good client for MySQL. So I gave it a try and to my surprise, TablePlus is such a brilliant app that boosts my productivity so much. But recently, one of my friends recommended to try out TablePlus and he referred it as the best MySQL GUI Tool. I’ve been a loyal fan of Sequel Pro for almost 7 years and that was a fantastic experience. Because if I change nothing, I will learn nothing, or if I change too much at a time, that can potentially be a mess. Why I looked for an alternative?Įvery once in a while, I try to change a couple things when I work, that can be a new tool or a new technique. It might be worth giving it a try.TablePlus is a modern, native SQL client with intuitive GUI tools to create, access, query & edit multiple relational databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, Amazon Redshift, MariaDB, CockroachDB, Vertica, and Redis. Alternatively, other clients exist, such as "Table Plus" and allow you to connect, on Mac, to a variety of database servers, including SQL Server. Decision making-wise, how much do your want your local sql/mysql client to influence/weigh in your architecture/technology decisions, though? This can be a slippery slope. I have been running it at various companies (under AWS/RDS and AWS/Aurora) and have no reason to switch over to anything else. That said, could Azure MySQL ( ) be an option for you a this point? MySQL offers great performance. You'd only be looking at MySQL Query Workbench, if you were running and connecting to a MySQL Database. Therefore, it certainly makes sense you stick with some of the official Microsoft Tooling to connect to it, query and administer it. Looking at your stack ( ), it seems you are using Azure SQL Databases.
