Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Professional tool
This is a good and stable tool with really good and useful functionality: import/export, SSH tunnelling, fast searching, duplication, DDL visualization etc. If you are a professional, don't complain about the pricing. If you're an amateur, maybe this isn't for you.
Pro Duplicate row button
Makes it really easy to stub out example data while developing, just change the values with unique constraints and you have extra data ready to go.
Pro Wildcard finder
Has a search box that will highlight any matching row, regardless of what field is matched (spans multiple columns).
Pro In-line editing
Allows you to edit and save db rows through a spread-sheet like editor.
Pro Built-in support for major databases
Sqlectron supports PostgreSQL, MySQL (and MariaDB), MSSQL Server, SQLite, and Cassandra.
Cons
Con Expensive
License for the full product is costly.
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.
