Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Lightweight
The installation and Adminer itself only requires a single PHP file. Once it's uploaded you can log in and start using it.
Pro Supports more than MySQL
It supports several database management systems (Postgres, SQLite, Oracle, MS SQL and of course MySQL).
Pro Database views
Anyone who uses the views function will appreciate Adminer better. You can click on a view and edit to change the view. In phpMyAdmin, you can edit a view, but it's not easy or intuitive. SQL Buddy doesn't have any way of doing this.
Pro Themes
Has a great variety of themes which transfers pretty ugly application into a great looking one.
Pro Installation
No need to install, it's available to use out of the box.
Pro Easy to use
Way less confusing than other DB managers, and has a simple tabbed interface that feels more like VS Code.
Pro Free and Open Source
MIT License!
Pro Postgres
I use SQLite, MySQL, and Postgres, and Beekeeper supports all of them!
Pro Autocomplete
The autocomplete is useful but not obtrusive
Cons
Con Bulk edition problems
Con Not for a DBA
It's great for web/app developers who interact with a database, but if you're a full time DBA you probably have better powertools available
