So, I bought this software/app many moons ago and have been using it religiously for doing queries. It’s not cheap, but if you are using it for work, it’s a terrific investment. I’m not sure why, but even the CSV export seems to run much faster than other clients. If you take some time to learn how to use the Favorites and such feature, your typical DB tasks are terrifically simplified. I had been using another client previously, but this solution is soooo much better designed and usable.

While I’m not a daily user, this is a terrific solution for managing basic DB needs on a MAC. Especially in dark mode, it is simply far easier on my eyes as well. This app saves me a ton of time on a daily basis, because a) I don’t have to log-into a virtual machine to do my work and b) it performs far faster than MMSQL on Windows in my experience.

There are a few things I can’t do in the same way such as creating SQL server agent jobs, but those are outside of my daily work. I can do nearly all of my DBA work that I need to on a daily basis in this app.
