SQLified's answer

SQLified is designed for the solo developer, or the analytical employee dealing with large data sets, csv, or delimited files every day, and struggling with bulk insert. I want to eliminate that struggle so the real work can be done.

Azimutt's answer:

Azimutt is mainly targeted at developers working with databases, allowing them to easily explore and understand them by either importing the schema or connecting to a live instance.

As it's quite easy to use, we have seen other profile such as product owners, engineering managers and even CFOs using it to better understand the product they build or extract meaningful data on their own ^^

SQLified's answer

After using many online tools and being disappointed, I realized there was a need for a file that can create clean, type aware sql for bulk inserts. The product saves me tons of time every month dealing with large data sets in the payment industry and has reduced frustrations in dealing with them.

Azimutt's answer:

Early 2021 I joined Doctolib, a health startup very successful in France, and discovered their big Ruby on Rails monolith backed by a large PostgreSQL database with more than 700 business tables (more then 1300 in total). As an architect I worked with several teams and needed to understand their models but neither Ruby, Rails or the structure.sql were very helpful for such a big app. So I looked for a tool but they all failed with such a large database, so after a few month and tens of tools tested, I decided to build my own: Azimutt. Now it has evolved a lot and we are still very active to enable new usages every months. I believe it's a solid product and quite unique ❤️

Azimutt's answer:

From development languages, Azimutt is built with Elm/TypeScript for the frontend, Elixir/Phoenix for the backend and PostgreSQL/S3 as storage.

SQLified's answer

Our ability to infer data types, and produce massive insert statements quickly across multiple dialects.

Azimutt's answer:

It's the only ERD able to handle databases with many tables (>1000) nicely thanks to unique features:

• layouts to see only the relevant tables (not all are useful for everyone)
• smart search everywhere

It's also very unique in the sense it's made to explore and understand real world databases, from development to production with larges features:

• database design with an intuitive DSL
• database documentation, on any table, column or layout (markdown text and tags)
• database analysis to make sure best practices are in place
• innovative data exploration

Thousands of developers already love it, give it a try, we have several samples you can try right away!

SQLified's answer

Our tools are simple, effective, and require little processing power. We store no data; all work is "ephemeral" and done on the users machine. We do not track, store, or maintain any datasets whatsoever in regards to whatever is converted on the site. We are also not trying to be something we are not. We do what we do, which is flat file to SQL dialect conversion, and we do it well.

Azimutt's answer:

Azimutt is the all-in-one app to explore real world databases. If you look for very specialized features some competitors may be more suited, but if you want a versatile app to explore and understand your database, we believe no competitor come close to us.

• if you have more than 50 tables, there is no match, you should be amazed by Azimutt features built for large databases
• if you want to mix data exploration and schema exploration, it's also very unique
• if you care about open source, visit our GitHub

SQLified's answer

There are numerous competitors, but none that do what SQLified does well: this is type inference, and creating runnable SQL script for extremely large inserts in multiple dialects.

Azimutt's answer:

Azimutt is used at Doctolib (3000 people company) and some other french scale ups I can't disclose yet.
