Re: TablePlus – Modern, Native Tool for Database Management
#132Been using the open source dbeaver for a while now. On the whole very impressed with it, so worth a look as a free alternative.
I have also been a dbeaver user, but DBeaver 7 has been really unstable for me and has caused me to look for alternatives.

#133Anyone know what this is built in/with? C++ & GTK?
from the website:
> TablePlus is a native application. We are using Swift, Objective-C, C/C++, Perl for OSX, C# for Windows.

#134The application looks and feels nice, but the per-device pricing/licensing model seems severely outdated to me. I will not make a purchase unless named licenses, which enable me to use the application on all devices and operating systems I use (with reasonable limits if DRM is needed for some reason), are available.
This is an odd hill to die on. I'd bet 90%+ of engineers have a single computer they code from at home (even if you have multiple computers) and another at work. It's perfectly fair to pay for a separate license for each of those use cases. I'd prefer this to some $10/month SAAS model.
I have a laptop, a home computer, a work computer and I have all my tools on all of them. I bet that is more the norm than not. The license should be associated with the person not the device.

#135This program won't install on Windows 7 because it requires .NET Framework version 4.8, which won't install on Windows 7, because Micro$oft doesn't support it any longer. Given this, you'd think TablePlus would explicitly mention this before putting Windows 7 users through this unnecessary waste of time.
Should probably mention it doesn't work on Windows 95 either.
Windows 7 end of life began in January 2020. Around a quarter of all PCs are still running it.
Remind me again what the EOL for Windows 95 was.
"Even today, millions of PCs are still running Windows 7, and the operating system still runs on a massive 26 percent of all PCs according to data from Netmarketshare."

#136Earlier quoted context omitted.
I've been using TablePlus for a long time now as well. I don't have any affiliation but started with their mac app. It was easily the best DB GUI out there. I like that you can use the same GUI for PostgreSQL, MYSQL, Redis, MongoDB, and SQLite (there are even more than this, but these are the ones I use). It is awesome to have one very powerful and well-maintained program for all my database needs. I can get proficie…
What does it give me that DBeaver doesn't? I use DBeaver daily for work but would consider paying for a better tool if I can see what is better about it.
I've just found the Linux alpha release (build 52) [1], and so I've installed it. This is just alpha and probably missing features, one being that it doesn't seem possible to connect to Oracle. MySQL was available so I tried connecting to a local instance of that that DBeaver connects to and it failed to connect.
There are some UI glitches, but it is alpha software. I do like the simple UI; DBeaver does feel very busy in comparison. I'll keep updating as it progresses through alpha and see how it improves.

Why would they support a dead OS? Windows 7 is months past end-of-life, receiving no security patches and hence unsafe to use.
And by the way they actually explicit mention it on the homepage - it says .NET 4.8 right under the download button.

#138Free alternative i have been using for some years now: https://dbeaver.io/ The community edition is updated more often than i would like and sometimes features break but bugs get fixed quickly and they add usefull stuff all the time. Dont know what i would do if i was stuck with pgAdmin...
I've been using mysql workbench for a few years now. Is free, works well, is cross platform and open source.

That's EOL, it's been deprecated since 2015, if you're a developer using it and can't see why people can't bother supporting it I don't know what to say other than should we support XP since random PCs in China still run it ?

#140These GUIs are great though I find no substitute for learning the CLIs. With a CLI one can work on remote systems and quickly automate one off tasks.
