Sqlectron supports PostgreSQL, MySQL (and MariaDB), MSSQL Server, SQLite, and Cassandra.
Pro Open source and actively developed
Pro PL/pgSQL Debugger
Pro Web-based, can be run locally or deployed on server
OmniDB is web-based and works similarly to pgAdmin 4. You can run the web server locally or deploy it on a server, and connect to it through a web browser.
Pro Multi-database
Supports PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL and MariaDB, with support in the pipeline for Firebird, SQLite, SQL Server and DB2.
Pro Simple and intuitive interface for everyone.
An easy-to-discover tree panel to classify features/objects on left (with context menus if you don't know what you're doing). Tabs panels for ins and outs on right. That's it.
Pro OmniDB has 2ndQuadrant as its main sponsor
Cons
Con Unmaintained
The creator stopped working on the project, it is in need of maintainers.
Con Written in Electron
Con Only installable through npm
Horrible package manager that is not allowed on our servers.
Con No plugins
Con Buggy
Sqlectron is installable and that's about it. You can't actually add servers to connect to in the app, making it a 200 MB paperweight.
