PostgreSQL Client Reviews

by Ezioadi

PostgreSQLClient loses connection when I switch to notes or something to copy over some text. The results page cannot be rebooted or closed and the reconnecting process hangs up. So I have to logout from the server and start over.

Is this a bug?

At first this looked promising until PostgreSQLClient crashed. Since you need the pro version to save even 1 connection, I had to re-enter all the connection info each time PostgreSQLClient crashed on me. The free version should at least allow 1 saved connection. I hope the pro version doesn't crash as often as the free version. Too unstable for me to buy the pro version.

PostgreSQLClient worked for several months, then suddenly I cannot connect to my existing database.

After verifying Face ID, the “wheel” just spins until it gives up!

Until yesterday's update, time fields were incorrect. For example 13:30:00 would show 1:00 AM. That was fixed but now you cannot add a new record that has a date and time field. There are nice clocks and calendars but they will not actually fill in a field. I had to purchase another front end for anything more than viewing data.

Look, for the price, you’re not going to do better. The competition have enterprise-level subscription rates. PostgreSQLClient has a fantastic hobbyist-level price. And that’s what I am, so it’s the only viable option for iPad as far as I can see.

It works. It runs queries. It connects and reconnects beautifully. I’ve been creating tables, inserting data, parsing tens of thousands of records without trouble.

It crashes sometimes (but brings all your saved queries right back up). The interface can’t run an individual query, only everything that’s in the current window. The query and the results are in different “tabs” but you can’t switch from the query tab to the results tab without exiting the tab because of the keyboard-helper bar along the bottom (the one that’s still there even when you’re on a hardware keyboard).

So it lacks polish, sure, but it’s WAY faster and easier than typing out the queries from the CLI. And again, check out that outstanding price!

I needed a way to quickly view data in my AWS RDS PostgreSQL database. PostgreSQLClient has everything I needed from schema info, row counts, activity stats, as well as custom SQL query abilities. The PRO version is worth the few dollars to enable saving queries, editing rows, and managing connections. The interface is clean, well organized and easy to navigate. Thanks for a great tool!

Very useful app. It might not look as nice as as SQL Pro, but it’s not crazy overpriced and has all the features you need including connecting through an SSH tunnel, saving favorite queries, an in-line editor and even a dark mode.

I think all of my concerns have been addressed now in this version!! Well done!

Fantastic app. Very feature rich, very stable. This is now my default means for db admin.

I don’t know how much value of the pg app that cost $219 for a lifetime license over this one but for nine bucks it’s a no brainer.

Great functionality at a very reasonable price. A must have!

Very good postgresql support. But I bought because it is one of the few solutions able to work with Redshift. Seems to support about 90%. Which is good enough for emergency support on the go. Hopefully this helps others.
