## Reviews

### "For Postgres sql management" — 4.0/5

> **Luca** | *20 January 2025* | Packaging & Containers | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: When it comes to managing a PostgreSQL database, PgAdmin is my go-to choice. It’s the official tool for Postgres, regularly updated, and equipped with all the necessary features. I find the query history and the ability to save connection credentials particularly useful.
> 
> **Cons**: I find the text autocomplete while typing queries quite annoying, as it triggers with every letter and makes it really hard to understand what you're writing. I disabled it, but I believe with some fine-tuning, it could be an extremely useful feature.

### "Great learning for SQL database." — 4.0/5

> **Mitchell** | *11 May 2024* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: pgAdmin is great because it's easy to use, like navigating around a familiar website. It has lots of handy features for managing databases, so you can do things like asking questions to your database or keeping an eye on its health without needing to be a computer genius.
> 
> **Cons**: Although it is pretty user friendly, it's not super friendly if you don't know how to code SQL. It could be handy if they had some auto fill or block code that allows you to select tables from certain databases for example, without needing to memorize the code.
> 
> Great beginner software for use of a first database. Every now and then, it acted up and crashed, especially if you're trying to do too much at once. But this was probably user error. And while it's pretty easy to get the hang of, it might take a little time to figure everything out, especially if you're not used to this kind of software. Plus, it's designed specifically for a certain type of database, so if you're working with different types, you might find it a bit limiting.

### "The ultimate postgres database manager" — 5.0/5

> **Juan Manuel** | *2 June 2021* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It allows to have multiple databases in one place. The system to be able to highlight them in various colors is very useful to differentiate them, you can see not only the tables, but also the triggers, functions, sequentials and everything related to that database in a visual and very practical way\! Version 3 works as installable software but version 4 works as a web server. It has a free and very good database consumption monitoring system. A very important and convenient detail is that in addition to being able to generate SQL queries, it allows you to view the entire table and edit live on the fields
> 
> **Cons**: In its version 3, on Linux computers it happens that when the database is disconnected when it wants to reconnect it is checked and closed or if many cells are selected from the viewer. Otherwise it works perfect
> 
> My experience with PGAdmin was excellent, it is the quintessential product to handle postgress databases, it works very well, the option to highlight databases more than once saved the day. Being able to monitor consumption in free software that works so well is a pleasure. At the usability level, the desktop version seems more comfortable but at the level of analysis the web is better. For this reason I have both software installed working without any problem. If you are looking for software for your database, look no further, this is the best solution, compatible with windows, mac and linux and, if that were not enough, FREE.

### "Postgresql IDE and compare" — 3.0/5

> **Pinki** | *15 September 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What most I like is its comparing two database. And its showing the activities monitor. Use to write Postgresql queries and executive the query.
> 
> **Cons**: Its not showing the proper suggestions. Ui is not that much good. To open definition of any store procedure or function we have to open for explore.
> 
> Its good tool, in initial time we are using this tool and and help to write query.

### "pgAdmin - a solid database management system" — 4.0/5

> **Anastasia** | *27 September 2023* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: pgAdmin provides a very easy way to access PostgreSQL databases. It's open-source and secure, which is important for my company. It's great to be able to access multiple databases in one place. The authorization process is straightforward and doesn't involve many steps. The way the results of the query are displayed are very clear, and it's also easy to export them. I also like that it saves the history of past queries - I refer to it a lot.
> 
> **Cons**: The UI is not very intuitive - I don't like that every now and then I click on something and it opens in a separate floating window, and then I don't know how to put it back. Also the suggestions for the code errors could be improved - the placement of the error isn't always displayed correctly and it's not always easy to understand what exactly is wrong. It also crushes a lot, but I assume it mostly has to do with my laptop not being optimal for such a heavy program.
> 
> My overall experience with pgAdmin has been positive. It has some shortcomings with its UI, but it's very good and offers many advanced features for open-source software. I use it to run queries and access two databases from one place. Overall, it's a good tool for my needs.
