Valentina Studio App Reviews

First thing I tried to do was import a simple csv file into mariadb, and it won’t work. I get seemingly 3/4 of the way through the steps to where it asks for mappiing the csv to the table columns, and then it bugs out… I can’t map anything because the options aren’t available. So, that’s a deal breaker for me.

I am using this to view and query data from my companys MySQL databases, and it works wonderfully. The SQL editor especially is very helpful, providing documentation right there for the various DBMSs, as well as code folding and syntax highlighting. I havent needed to manipulate the data with operations like importing or migrations, as I do not own the data Im working with. But I highly recommend the app for my use case!

I tried to use this app. I found it extremely hard to figure out how to even do the simplest things, it is hard to look at and hard to use. It is fast, and I’m sure it has cool features but it is not at all intuitive on how to use them.

5.6.2 does not support PostgreSQL materialized views, but 5.7 will. Filed an issue (#6972) with the developer and they addressed it in 4 days. Amazing. Any app with developers that pay attention is worth using. Per my original (negative) review, there’s still some frankly clumsy support for SSH Public Key authentication. But that’s easy to work around, and Valentia Studio may now become my preferred SQL IDE on OS X.

It is free and we know if it is free you can’t ask that much. I think it does the magic. It worked very well and got the job done. I didnt encounter any problem/error so…. 5 starts! Thank you for your work.

I’ve tried all GUI clients I’ve found on the internet and keep coming back to this one. I will agree that getting up and going is not perfectly clear and easy but once you figure it out, it makes since. The editor is the best part. I’m a fan of colored code and Valentina Studio does the best job with it.

User-friendly database management and visualization. Excellent for testing out your SQL queries.

This app was always "mediocre" but was at least "functionally" working, the latest UI update makes my eyes bleed, Im sitting in a "pinwheel" 50% of my time using this app, and is the only app on my entire system that triggers the pinwheel. Not sure why time was spent on this gross new theme instead fix all the UX lag/bugs & pinwheels 3/5 stars

It is not clear why you blame developers. It is obiouse trouble with your MAS. Please note that MAS have strong testing of apps before they are published. Ask support from Apple, may be try to google solution for your issue. Restart computer at last of end.

A very good GUI tool for Database interaction. Has improved steadily over the years. Some user-interface aspects could be improved but good software overall with frequent maintenance updates from vendor.
