Console’s review

· Reviewed by David Mytton

What we like

Set up connections and SQL queries to databases like MySQL, Postgres, BigQuery, MongoDB, etc. Auto-complete query editor with results browser that can visualize and export data. Desktop app or web interface. Queries can be private, shared, or public. Build dashboards and templated UIs to allow others to easily execute queries safely.

Tradeoffs

Desktop app not built for Apple Silicon (works via Rosetta 2 translation, but it becomes a bit laggy). Option for direct connections avoids their cloud service, but also means they can’t be used via their web app version i.e. desktop only.
