How does this differ from something like DBeaver? Our QA Analysts (semi-manual testers) use that for making tweaks to our databases, both production and otherwise. Developers also use it because it is frequently easier than the command line when we do not know all the table and column names.

Is it basically a less intimidating version of that?

Yes, it's meant to be much easier for non-technical teammates, plus has more collaborative functionality built for teams (easy to share access, team-wide edit history, real-time collaboration).

I tend to think of tools like DBeaver as being built for individual, technical users, while BaseDash is built for cross-functional teams.

Huge shout out to DBeaver by the way, it's one of the most useful applications I use on a daily basis.
