Review on pganalyze by Deron Gilliam

Revainrating 4 out of 5

An amazing tool if used wisely: pganalyze

I love the fact that it's open source, free to use in commercial terms with no lock-in contract or expensive licenses for their software so we can take advantage of all its functions without any doubt!It has many other benefits because you don't need much resources (CPU/RAM)to run your DB properly! It seems that one day when they will have more features like this would be very helpful but everything works fine until now as far as my experience goes!! We are solving problems related to our business needs such us speed up queries by searching information which were stored at different tables within databases using SQL query language(SQL). I like that it works with most databases, including sqlite3 (which was my use case). It's easy to get started using it because of its intuitive interface. The UI could be more modernized and less cluttered. Maybe also make some adjustments in terms of ease-of-use for users not familiar with Linux/Unix command line. Monitoring your queries, views and joins without having to rely on third party tools such as DBeaver or similar.
