DbVisualizer

What do you like best?

DbVis makes it easy to import and export files, use variable and any other feature you can think of.

You don't have to worry about losing your queries with the auto-recover feature that re-opens DBVis with all your work that was left open, very helpful when Windows Updates occur when you are not expecting them.

What do you dislike?

I haven't had any real issues using DbVis. One thing I change from default is the maximum heap size allocation but I don't think I would call that an issue.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

I would highly recommend using DbVisualizer. It is an easy to use tool that can do it all.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

DBVis has helped solved lots of issues, such as using the DBVisCMD component to run multiple/parallel queries.

Some of the major benefits I've found is how quick and easy it is to see table sizes, use the portal to tune queries and see what's going on behind the scenes.
