DBVisualizer

Posted by tom January 15th, 2008

After evaluating loads of DB GUI apps for Mac OSX, I’ve finally made my decision. It seems that DBVisualizer is more than able to fit my needs, allows for data entry/export and creation and altering of tables. It also allows for a uniform view into multiple databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL/etc). It doesn’t have a great Mac OSX (Leopard) look & feel, but it’s not all that bad either! All in all I’d recommend it!
