Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client

Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by reaperducer on Thursday January 17, 2019 @11:16PM (#18936988)

I looked into Table Plus when I found that Sequel Pro crashes more than NASCAR on a Sunday. But it’s pricing model doesn’t work for the way I work. I’m just one person, but use multiple computers simultaneously, making per-computer licensing prohibitive.

Obviously phpMyAdmin is a tire fire.

I’m still looking for a good macOS-native client similar to Sequel Pro. Bonus points if it has a usable iPad version.

I use it on multiple computers - jsut not at the same time.

"If you want to use TablePlus on multiple devices you need to add more seats to your license. The number of seats is the number of devices you can log in to at the same time" https://tableplus.io/order/extend-seats

So I took that to mean that I can have it on multiple machines, I just can't use them at the same time - which is fine, I can use my laptop or desktop depending on where I am.

Thanks for the clarification. I'll have to take a second look at it, since I'll only use it on one machine at a time.

As for crashing, just use the test builds: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18937589

I'd rather use my time getting things done than constantly catching up with latest builds and patches. That's the reason I switched to a Mac.

SetApp might be good for you. Table Plus is in there and I'm sure you can have up to 3 machines in the default subscription

Ouch, that is a bit pricey for one person with multiple computers, especially if the annual upgrade fee is also per computer. It makes me wonder if the licensing is tied to the motherboard / MAC address too, which is a pain when repairs happen.

On the other hand, I'm really glad to see a developer charging a sustainable price for their product.

which is a pain when repairs happen => TablePlus has a license manager where you can remove your old device, manage your license. The TablePlus license is the onetime purchase, if you don't need any new feature, you don't need to renew it anyway.
