It is easy to view all databases and other services (such as Redis and Elastic Search) from their dashboard. You can see some high-level information that makes management easy. Their API is also very easy to interact with to programmatically create such deployments.

Drawbacks:

Some of the documentation can be a little vague at times, but if you are using this service as a way to host databases, and if you don't require advanced use cases, then this is not a big problem.

If you are a small company and you don't want to spend a lot of time setting up database hosting, Compose is a great way to get started and move on. Ideally, you can set it up here and only have to interact with Compose sparingly.

I've been using Compose for a while and the product got better and better: it now supports many database deployments and their dashboard is one of the easiest and most intuitive I've used. The service is rock solid and it's fantastic both for personal and enterprise projects.

Drawbacks:

The UI for querying the databases is not immediate, if you aren't a developer.

Nice and user-friendly UI. Native support for pretty much all the popular databases. Easy to use. Quite powerful freemium functionality so you can try before you buy and might not have to buy at all depending on use-case.

Supporting a wide range of databases mean that it's hard to create a cohesive UI experience for all of them. The UI is probably most suited for relational databases like Postgres / MySQL while simple key value stores like Redis might not be as fitting.

Wonderful. Before discovering TablePlus I used a bunch of different database UI tools for various databases but TablePlus allowed me to have a single go-to tool for all of them.

Benefits:

TablePlus is super easy and intuitive to use, looks good and works without issues.

Drawbacks:

Free version is a bit limited which is annoying but understandable.

Summary:

I would recommend TablePlus to anyone looking for solid database client.

Benefits:

- very aesthetically pleasing - query history is helpful - works well with local databases

Drawbacks:

when interacting with non-local databases: - all windows will randomly close. that is, even when my cpu is running fine and has more than plenty of memory, and other applications have no problems at all - regardless of database, I rarely have the ability to kill a query. during times when I somehow do have the option to kill a query, it will take many minutes to 'load' the query before you have the option of killing it. making it pointless. - they have only one person to contact for support, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], and he just doesn't have an answer for things that are very reasonably considered to be basic features in other sql clients (like why it works for me to *near instantly* kill queries with literally any other software (data grip, postico, etc) that I've downloaded) - they thought it was best not to include the file name in the ribbon of an open file, making it hard to edit multiple things at once - you can't create a new scratch within the same workspace without first opening up the left window pane to reveal the button to do so - other bs that makes it very easy to overlook the visual appeal of this gui

I only used this app in the first place because I hate how cluttered and ugly other apps, like data grip, are. At first I tested Tableplus on a local database and everything was awesome. I thought I had found my new sql editor and I was thrilled because this interface looks fantastic. However, when it came time to do actual work, this software is undoubtedly a pretender and not a contender. Or at this time, at least (March 2020). See reasons in the con section. Hopefully they figure it out, because they're on the right track visually, but I don't understand how other reviewers can reasonably give this software three stars given its limitations

It has a great autocomplete for SQL query and can manage migration really well. I also like a backup system I can use before doing a dig into a database to make sure I don't end up without data.

Drawbacks:

The free tier was really annoying to use. Also, I miss some shortcuts to switch between tabs on big projects.

Summary:

I hated the free tier as it was really limiting but paid plan works great.
