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. ----- ### "For Postgres sql management" — 4.0/5 > **Luca** | *January 20, 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. ----- ### "The ultimate postgres database manager" — 5.0/5 > **Juan Manuel** | *June 2, 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** | *September 15, 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 is still the best in the world for SQL bug tracking system" — 5.0/5 > **Donatien** | *December 18, 2022* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is very easy to use, very secure in terms of control and authorization to access the user interface, really pgadmin is still the best in the world of a database manager more advanced in computing and tracking bugs SQL query. > > **Cons**: The effect of taking this initiative of taking double passwords without signaling, one should make a mechanism to warn to the user of taking care of two passwords physical server and postgreSQL, frankly when I had been confronted with this situation, I had galleyed more than two hours to be able to discover and me with an intuition of a full Stack Developer born. > > It is the most advanced database management system in the open source world and the most secure. And it remains the most advanced system whether it is professional or open source. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/210772/pgadmin?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/210772/pgadmin) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
