But I'm also very aware that high quality fully native developer tools are quite few and far between, and the number that are also cross platform is miniscule.

#Tableplus vs postico software#

I'm lucky enough to be paid pretty well for my skills and experience, and I (or technically my company) can maintain some software and release it as open source. Sure, that gives you the warm fuzzy feeling, and benefits anyone with > 2 machines, but it doubles the price for those who only need one seat under the current scheme. Would you prefer it it was per-person but cost $99 for a licence, with a year of updates? What's always missing from these type of discussions is the consideration that just maybe, offering it as per-seat rather than per-person is why the price is what it is.

If I happen to need TP next time I'm using that machine, the cost of adding another seat to the license is offset by some fraction of an hours billable work, and lasts for a year. I do have another machine, but it's effectively a 'spare' / 'travel' machine, so I don't use it a lot. I have a single license for TablePlus right now.

#Tableplus vs postico for free#

This team really is great and I highly recommend trying their tool for free and upgrading to the paid version if you find it useful, which I think any developer will. The team eventually committed to a Linux version, and after a year of development updates I was invited to the beta and had been using it ever since. Let alone something as easy to use and powerful as TablePlus. The forum post quickly started gaining momentum from other Linux users who discussed how there is quite literally NO good DB GUI on Linux (other than the CLI). Each version is maintained by a seperate team (from my understanding) within their business and it is built on the native language and frameworks for that platform.Ībout 1.5-2 years ago I started a discussion on their forum about bringing a version to Linux (at the time it was only Windows and Mac). And MOST IMPORTANTLY, this isn't an electron application.

They offer tools on every platform (Mac, Windows, Linux). Lastly I need to point out an often-overlooked reason to consider TablePlus. Finally offering a generous free version supports newbies and the dev community. But i think that this is a great balance between being fair (it is perpetual at the version + 12mos that you bought it at), while also incentivizing and allowing to support further development. You do need to renew if you want newer versions, as the $60 license only covers 1 year of updates. I also like that it is a perpetual license, so you don't need to 'subscribe' if you don't want to. This is well worth any developer's time as it accounts for only an hour or two of their wages most likely.

You can upgrade to support them and to remove the few limitations in the free version for just $60. New devs will easily be satisfied with the free version. First of all, it is free to use in its entirety forever, with only a small handful of limitations. The pricing model is EXTREMELY FAIR in my opinion. In addition, I can pay 1 licensing fee and get access to a powerful tool for working with all of these databases, instead of needing a separate tool for each one (which was the case in the past). I can get proficient at one tool and use it for everything. It is awesome to have one very powerful and well-maintained program for all my database needs. I like that you can use the same GUI for PostgreSQL, MYSQL, Redis, MongoDB, and SQLite (there are even more than this, but these are the ones I use).

I don't have any affiliation but started with their mac app.

Obviously ymmv and I might have just encountered crappy ones, but 100s of signed legal docs in my career from at least 30 different lawyers show me that actually 95% is boilerplate of the docs we get.I've been using TablePlus for a long time now as well. Akin to me selling a software application and charging all buyers 1000 hours and deliver it after 2 months instead of a license and an immediate download. If they would say '$1000 - boilerplate document (c) OurFirm' that would be fine, but making out it took days to make while it is exactly boilerplate/template with changed names is what all lawyers (at least the Corp ones we deal with) do (and they also spend > 1 week delivering these templates because 'so much work') but it is a scam imho. It can be Ofcourse, but most, even complex company documents I have signed (and that's 100s) are indeed boilerplate and the lawyers are scammers trying to bill hours for 'writing' them. Ofcourse there is multiple times have I gotten documents via-via that were identical to docs I received before and the lawyers billed hours for that copy/paste work making it sound, like your wife, that it is custom and a lot of work.
