Well, it's already better looking than pgAdmin III and I doubt it would make me force-quit my browser when the VPN drops like pgAdmin makes me, so... I might be motivated enough to try it. Does it go on the DB server itself, or does it matter?
We've been using postgresql for several years, and have used a wide range of tools from EMS, Navicat, PG Lightning, pgadmin, etc, and would love to provide you with some feedback, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an easy way to download and install this beta. Something like a tar.gz of the files would work fine, the ubuntu install won't work on our gentoo box, and the fedora link is down, and I try my best to a…
I will definitely make sure that simple archives are provided as alternatives to the installers. For now I fixed the link to the Fedora installer. (It doesn't do anything except copy a bunch of files making the case for simple archives even stronger)

I am getting great commentary back - I cleverly included the option to send feedback directly from the application, and then foolishly forgot to include a field for the user's email address, so I can't respond directly :) I will try to pick up on those comments here in the thread, particularly support issues: > When first starting up TeamPostgreSQL with the "Start TeamPostgreSQL" Windows start menu option, I am given…
Looks nice... What does this have that phppgadmin doesn't? I take it that this is a commercial project?
Good question, phppgadmin is the main competition and also the inspiration.
First of all, TeamPostgreSQL is team-oriented. This is expressed both in terms of features (ability to share SQL snippets and scripts - "hey Joe, go run the 'get latest orders' query on preproduction1") and in terms of user interface design (friendly and responsive versus heavy and complex).
This is the key to positioning it as a team platform, the fact that non-techies such as testers and support staff will feel perfectly comfortable peeking and poking the database.
Other than that we believe it is an overall incremental improvement over phppgadmin in the areas where they overlap, f.ex. with a 100% AJAX interface and a lot of productivity features such as 'quick query' (type a phrase, f.ex. a customer id and hit enter, it searches every row of every table in the database).
We hope that this will be attractive enough that people will pay for it (so yes, commercial project).
I'd love to hear your honest opinion: Is this enticing? Would you consider it over phppgadmin?
