High Performance MySQL, 2nd Edition - O'Reilly
MONyog is a lightweight, agentless monitoring system that takes a different approach from the tools previously mentioned. It is designed to run on a desktop system, where it starts an HTTP listener on an unused port. You can point your browser at this port to see information on your MySQL servers, rendered by a combination of JavaScript and Flash. The underlying implementation uses a JavaScript engine, and all configuration is done via a JavaScript object model.
MONyog is actually both interactive and noninteractive, so you might want to examine its capabilities for both kinds of monitoring. 
Kevin Adams - Solutions Architect, Digiflow Inc Within minutes of MONyog installation, we were able to fix a dozen
security vulnerabilities with our MySQL installation.
Scott Johnson - DBA, IDA Software Services We hate installing new software on our production servers and all
other monitoring tools were forcing us to install additional software
on each host running MySQL. The agent-less architecture of MONyog was
a gift from God!
Sarah Cooper - IT Manager, IS Global Solutions We don't have a full time DBA in our company. We didn't have the
technical skills to setup Cacti or Nagios. MONyog enabled us to start
monitoring our Linux and MySQL servers within minutes of installation.
That is pretty incredible.
Sheeri Cabral - The Pythian Group MONyog is the best out-of-the-box GUI monitoring tool for MySQL that
I have seen. It "just works." As promised, getting up and running
quickly is easy, and having a centralized location for monitoring is
very useful. The graphs are beautiful and the statistics that are
graphed are useful time-savers.
The biggest difference between MySQL's Enterprise Monitor and MONyog
is that MONyog is agentless. At Pythian, we have many clients with
differing security requirements. Requiring a daemon process to be
running is not something we currently do, and it might be a hard sell
for some clients. Even if every client was amenable to it, making sure
the daemon is up and running on each MySQL server is tedious. Note
that agentless operation works for every feature, including log
analysis as well as operating system statistics.
Chris Robers - Senior Software Engineer, MI Inc We evaluated a lot of MySQL monitoring tools - both commercial and
open source. MONyog was the only tool that was able to pinpoint the
problem SQL. Other tools were helpful in tweaking my.cnf but none of
them were able to show time consuming queries. Once MONyog identified
the problematic queries, we rewrote them and created a bunch of
indexes. Our webapp is now several times faster.
Matt McAlister - Managing Director, MSoft eSolutions Ltd MONyog has literally taken the guess work out of managing our
MySQL replicated cluster! Thank you Webyog!
Meegan A Lair - Punch IT SQLyog Enterprise has saved me an immense amount
of work. Unlike any other data migration tool out there. I work with several
different online web collaboration and content management tools. These all
require database integration. SQLyog Enterprise allows me to manage all the databases
from one interface across my web sites and web hosts from one place. An
amazing and priceless tool. The backup and copy capabilities along with
quick customization, query building, and fine tuning makes SQLyog Enterprise number one
with my Macromedia/Adobe toolset.
I really thought it was only going to serve me
slightly and would have to use phpMyAdmin for most of the work.
Honestly? Relieved. I am a visual person and a nuts/bolts person.
I like to fine grain my needs
but if it's a simple operation, I want point and click simplistic. Altering
a table is so crazy easy. Copy data from table to another is super easy. In
a nutshell, SQLyog Enterprise makes my life easier. My
time. Literally. Something that takes 1/2 hour in phpMyAdmin takes maybe 10
minutes now in SQLyog Enterprise. No kidding. I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! Wish you can apply
your smarts to a web site management tool that allows me to manage multiple
websites from one place. Maybe that could be your next adventure!
Mark Horlbeck - Manager, Information Technology, STC.UNM SQLyog Enterprise has been an absolute joy to work with. The database
structure synchronization tool alone is worth its weight in gold! It is
super-simple to have development and production servers and to keep
application databases synchronized. Plus, features like the Query and
Schema Designer come in very handy for our internal application
development. Thanks for making a great product; I use it every day!
Thanks, Webyog, for a great product & Good luck to your team.
Justin Carter - Blueyonder I bought SQLyog Enterprise as I need a simple and effective way to backup my SQL
databases to separate servers as well as needing a way to get around the
limitations placed by one or two of my providers in that only their servers
can connect to the database. The job agent and the tunnelling ability of
the enterprise edition met my needs exactly. The fact that it allows me to
visually build my SQL queries as well made it the only choice for me
I had never heard of your products before but a friend recommended you and I
tried the free edition and it was great but didn't meet my needs. The
SQLyog Enterprise Edition did, so I was more than happy to pay for that version.
Using the products has made my life a lot easier in database management and
synchronization. I use SQLyog Enterprise and its job agent to backup my SQL databases
to both other database servers as well as a machine on my local network.
Les Nightingill - Independent web developer SQLyog Enterprise is the only tool I need for managing databases. It's
comprehensive, fast, easy-to-use, and has an intuitive user interface.
Unlike phpMyAdmin, I don't have to go through the tedious host login in
order to manage my databases.
No hesitation to purchase as I could try before buying. I even
found a small bug and the response to solving it was very quick and helpful.
Any tool that makes development faster by providing easy
visibility into how my software is operating makes me more productive.
I like being able to debug my scripts by trapping failing
SQL statements and testing them in SQLyog... I can also develop complex SQL
queries in SQLyog Enterprise and then transfer them to my scripts. It's a great
development tool.
Met vriendelijke groeten - Web developer, sr., Winfred Peereboom We were looking for a product that will let us manage our database servers
from every location. Our sites must be really secure so the databases server
is only available from the web servers. A web based tool can be used,
but brings extra security risks. Besides our production servers we have a
remote testing environment with only SSH access. Without using putty with
tunneling there is hardly any tool for accessing the database servers.
So we were looking for a secure, client side including SSH support management tool
for our databases.
After we tested the community version we noticed that SQLyog offers a lot handy
features. Besides the "normal" functionality for querying and db actions, the
export functionality is really valuable for our customers.
We have got a lot of action/marketing sides with registration forms.
The customers would like to have reports and besides giving them a
"hand made" tool for getting these results by an url (again a security risk)
we have an excel / xml export for them in a couple of seconds.
Also one of the features that we often use is the migration and copy functionality
between hosts. With our testing environment we often want to set things up on
our live environment. So we don't have to create SQL scripts and run
them seperate on the live servers, but we just copy them with SQLyog Enterprise.
Right now we use 5 licenses of SQLyog, we have shared our connection file,
because we have a lot of db's with different users/passwords so we set them
up once and shared the file. We use the tool day by day and gives us as a
developer all the tools for seeing what's going on within our databases.
Also the support is very good. When we decide to buy SQLyog Enterprise we
had one issue within the program, we asked this in the forum and
within a day there was a solution that was implemented in the next version.
A very happy customer from the Netherlands.
Alan Crabb - Director, Integer Group Ltd One brilliant feature within SQLyog Enterprise is the 'Notification Services Wizard'.
Forget that description this as a full-blown automatic business reporting system.
You can
Currently I run 57 reports for various clients around the world.
Some get them just before they leave the office ('orders taken today'),
some when they get to the office in the morning ('your appointments for today'),
some when an event requires it ('product just gone out of stock').
As system administrator I get key reports sent to my Blackberry.
There may be other programs out there that do all this (find one!)
This one is fully integrated with the database and fully featured
SQLyog would be worth buying for this feature alone.
Matthew Shields - mattshields.org
From the moment I used the trial version of SQLyog I was impressed.
I knew that this was one tool that was well worth the investment.
I work as a MySQL DBA and consultant and it has saved me time and money.
One of the best features I found, was the ability to not only tunnel MySQL
over an SSH session to the same host I'm SSH'ing to, but I can also SSH
into a firewall and have it tunnel MySQL to a different server.
From a security perpective this is a great feature because it doesn't
require that I expose SSH on my database server.
Also, I was really impressed with the database syncronization tools.
There are numerous times where I have had to work on a customer's
replicated MySQL environment and this has given me the ability to do a
quick check to see if everything is in sync or not.
For anyone who is looking for a great, affordable MySQL tool, SQLyog Enterprise is
the best and well worth the money.
David Goadby - Senior Partner, Pixel-Plus Over the years we have tried many products some were free and some were
much more expensive.
Outof the bunch SQLyog Enterprise is the only one that offers us everything
we want in just the one mouse click.
Each release gets better too as the developers keep up with the new
features in MySQL - much appreciated guys!
SQLyog Enterprise is in use all day every day; its icon is in Quick Launch Bar.
It is the first tool I reach for whether it is a simple query,
a new view or a complete backup.
For me SQLyog Enterprise is the Swiss Army Knife of database managers.
Joe Darling - Owner, MondoWeb, Sydney I just wanted to let you know that I am very pleased with SQLyog Enterprise.
I am the owner of a web design shop which has rapidly moved into SQL web
application development. In this space, we make bespoke systems and I
manage these projects but have external resources who handle the SQL and scripting.
Recently, I bought SQLyog Enterprise to try managing the SQL between
development and publishing. Honestly, I was not anticipating any success,
but I am happy to say that I was wrong. I actually found that with
SQLyog I am doing more than I thought possible. I am now flawlessly
duplicating and moving entire web applications,
most specifically, the live SQL databases with them.
I am making backups, dumps and importing/exporting data as I please.
I find the tunneling feature of SQLyog Enterprise to be a straight-forward and
reliable means of SQL connections. It is astounding really,
to say that in the past 2 months with SQLyog I have managed a dozen heavy-lifting
tasks without incident. Needless to say this has relieved the small
job pressure from development staff, streamlined deliveries and
probably saved me pockets of cash.
Thanks.
Rich Quintal - Principal, Head Developer, Eyecitemedia I purchased SQLyog Enterprise some time ago, since then my development efforts have
been fast and efficient. Coming from phpMyAdmin to SQLyog Enterprise has changed
my methods of PHP/MySQL development. It has made me faster and much
more efficient. Just being able to save connection details and to have
the ability to jump from website database to website database in an
instant is amazing.
Raj Siripuram - New gate services llc The most useful & easy to use db developer product I have found,
I thought it may be a basic tool but after using it, I came to know it is a
simple and powerful tool, you can do pretty much everything and after
using SQLyog Enterprise I started scheduling database backup.
Inder Bollampally - Conin Technologies SQLyog Enterprise is an easy to use GUI tool that has helped our team to
work smarter and deliver the project faster. Its features and functions can
be learned with little effort and put to use quickly.
My team has highly recommended this tool.
Brian Vicary - IT Manager, Kirklands Business Solutions Ltd Before purchasing SQLyog Enterprise I was using a certain PHP based MySQL tool.
While it was adequate for the job I found some tasks were either really difficult
or impossible to do. I did look at a few alternative administration tools,
but many of them had the same features I was already used to, just wrapped up in a
pretty program and a hefty price tag slapped on!
Then I discovered SQLyog Enterprise and I've been using it now for over 2 years.
I'd be completely lost without it! The software is robust and extremely easy to use.
I have to maintain around 50 separated databases and SQLyog just makes it a breeze!
The feature I probably use the most is the database synchronization tool.
When our programmer updates our software I only have to modify one set of data and
then get SQLyog Enterprise to create the necessary SQL to modify all the other tables.
SQLyog Enterprise is bristling with great functionality and I have no doubt I am using
many of its great features without even thinking about. The software is very
logically laid out so is very easy to use. The context menus make it easy to find the
required feature. All of the admin tasks that a database requires are at your
fingertips from user account maintenance to backing up and restoring everything
is easy to use. Did I mention the Query Builder and Schema designer? This tool has let
me create AD HOC queries quickly and efficiently. I used to use MS Access to create
queries and then edit the SQL to work, but now I don't have to.
It's great having such a versatile tool available and it has saved me both money
and time. In all the time I have been using SQLyog Enterprise I have never had a technical
problem with it so I can't comment on support, but I think that speaks volumes
for the quality of the software itself. I'm sure the support is every
bit as comprehensive as the software! :o) If I had the time I could probably
write pages of praise for SQLyog Enterprise, but all you need to do is try it now to
know immediately that this is a great piece of software.
Niclas Marie - TimeCenter Online Appointment I'd love to share my comments on your software that I like very much! :)
SQLyog Enterprise is a great utility to manage our and our customers' databases.
I especially like the feature to copy a database/table to a different host,
which makes it easy to keep a local copy of any database I work with, and
the HTTP Tunneling is very useful, because of strict security restrictions to
connect to databases of web hosts. Editing table rows in a grid similar to Excel
is very convenient and saves a lot of time.
The licensing is generous, allowing me to have SQLyog Enterprise on both
my main computer and my laptop and i used phpMyAdmin before, but SQLyog is
much quicker and easier to work. With SQLyog Enterprise I'll never have
to use phpMyAdmin again!
Calico Cook - Webmaster, Bastyr University As a long time user of Microsoft SQL Enterprise Manager and Studio
projects I finally found in SQLyog Enterprise a way to manage and maintain my MySQL
databases in an easy and powerful manner; most importantly one that
was familiar to me and the rest of my IT group in case they needed to
stand in for me. My immediate need was to setup backups and transfer
databases to our new web server, and this worked without a hitch and
saved me lots of time. I haven't felt the need to fully explore all the
features as everything I have wanted to do has been available on the
first try. I especially love the fact that this project is linked into
the Open Source community both for the ultra-competitive pricing and
support when needed. Also since we have dedicated hosting, this works out as a more secure and lowers overhead option for us as compared to
running a locked-down phpMyAdmin web-site.
Peter Horton - Development Director, Quartermelon Limited We have been using SQLyog Enterprise for around 2 years and chose this product after
having tried most of the other MySQL tools.
In our experience the software is very easy to use but also has a very
strong set of features that allow us to perform some complex tasks in
relative safety. Whilst no software is bug free we have found SQLyog Enterprise to be
robust enough for use on live databases.
In the main we use the tool for developing SQL queries but we have found
that the Power tools are invaluable when we need to correct live or
development issues, so much so that now we tend to code our database
services via Power tools rather than via MySQL calls as we find it quicker
and more robust.Our experience with SQLyog Enterprise so far has been very positive and we are
currently evaluating some of the additional products such as MONyog.
Ken Guzzetta - webmaster, Sanjosechevys I actually had never heard of the SQLyog tool before,
but did a search and found the trial version.
Once I started using it, I found it super easy to use and intuitive as well;
I bought it right away. I have used other tools for MySQL db interfaces,
but SQLyog Enterprise is probably one of the easiest to use.
It is quick to connect, and the tool is layed out in such a way that
I can quickly get things done. I don't have to waste a lot of time trying to
hunt around for the right functions to get things done such as Altering tables
or changing data types of columns. Most things are a right click away,
which is a great feature. I also love the tree interface on the left that
lets you see at a glance what the data structure looks like so I can quickly find
the table/column I need to work on.
I found that I was able to get a MySQL database up and running in less than
10 minutes. The configuration and login process is a snap and quite intuitive.
This is one of those products that should be in every Webmaster's toolkit!
Jerome Hourquebie - NDS I have never used SQL before I tried SQLyog Enterprise.
I was surprised to see that how much clear and pleasant it could be.
SQLyog Enterprise helps me a lot to understand how to use SQL DB.
And I am Very happy, I asked NDS to buy a license because of query builder
help me to understand how to make my query.
The presentation is very clear, and I didn't lose time to understand how
to use it. The quick "filter" is very helpful to manipulate some rows.
We can easily focus on the value we want to modify.
The other functionality I like a lot is the multi query tab bar.
But I often have to reload each tab from a file (I always use the same queries).
Jose Portero - V Contractor I bought SQLyog Enterprise because I am always the opinion that people need money to
carry on developing your excellent product.
I am in charge of a major database for telecommunications company.
And SQLyog Enterprise has been a fantastic tool to help me to maintain
this database that has approximately 186 databases distributed along fourteen
blades and have another fourteen blades as slaves of the first fourteen.
I am a developer of systems on multiple languages ( C,C++,PHP,VB, .NET, ASP,XML,PASCAL,FORTRAN) and
DBA for MySQL and other databases on multiple platforms (Windows,Unix,HP Nonstop servers-Tandems).
I am very happy with the fantastic tool that you have.
Naeem Ismat - President, Automation Media SQLyog Enterprise has provided invaluable database synchronization
service to our technology site. AutomationMedia.com maintains useful
resources for industrial technology enthusiasts and SQLyog Enterprise Edition is
delivering us accurate results. Anyone with minor computer knowledge can
synchronize MySQL databases with this tool. I have recommended this tool to
others in the industry because of great features, ease of use,
affordable for small businesses and best GUI interface as compared to
other solutions in market.
David Stringer - Proprietor, Synchronized Web Design Just a few months ago I knew nothing much about
databases or even how to make them work. I was asked by a client to build
them a website that could be updated by them when desired. Speaking to a
friend about this, another web developer, he mentioned that a 'must have'
for this kind of development was SQLyog Enterprise.
I visited webyog.com and the rest is now history.
I have found it such a fantastic help in being able to build, test and
control a database from my desktop, I cannot imagine how anyone could do
without owning it! Whatever you wish to do with a database, don't do it
without SQLyog Enterprise! I am absolutely delighted with the product
and at the price, it must be the bargain of the year. Thank you.
Derek Binkley - Senior Developer/Analyst, National Conference of Bar Examiners I first heard about SQLyog Enterprise from a database administrator that I
met at a MySQL training class. He said that the tool was the greatest
thing since sliced bread, so once I was back at my office I wanted to
give it a try right away. The price was reasonable enough that I had no
problems convincing my boss to get a copy of it to try out. Within
weeks we bought copies for all of our developers.
The biggest benefit that I get out of using SQLyog Enterprise is the time
savings. It is so easy to use that I did not have to spend time
figuring out how to get it to do what I need done. My favorite feature
is the Structure Synchronization tool. When developing new software our
database designs change a lot during the design process. Before SQLyog Enterprise
I had to carefully document every change and I was never quite sure if I
would miss something. Now with the Structure Synchronization I am just
a couple of clicks away from generating all of the SQL and DDL that I
need to take my development changes live in production.
I have tried out other products, some that are much more
expensive, that claim to support MySQL. So often they don't understand
the quirks and features of MySQL and I felt like I was getting my work
done in spite of their tool not because of it. SQLyog Enterprise is the exact
opposite. It fits so well with MySQL and keeps up with all of the
latest features.
Thanks for creating this product I honestly don't know what I
would do if I could no longer use it.
Martin Cooper - Developer When I came across SQLyog Enterprise, I was using an SQL manager
application from another company. It worked, but had massive stability problems.
I especially had problems backing up databases on my US based servers
(I live in the UK) as the connection was unstable. In addition,
the product gave no feedback on its progress when performing table's exports.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that, with SQLyog Enterprise, the
connection was as steady as a rock and I got full feedback,
so I didn't have to wait long periods of time for the application to become
responsive when dumping out larg(ish) database tables of several hundred MB in size.
This is a fantastic product with excellent support and definitely a product you can
trust with your data, unlike some other products I have used.
Jough Dempsey - Senior Developer, Duo Consulting SQLyog Enterprise makes browsing, searching, testing, and backing up
MySQL databases far easier than using the CLI interface.
Its layout and UI is also a tremendous improvement over the
Administrator GUI from MySQL AB themselves.
As a developer who has to test complex database interactions
(often through data that is updated or added via AJAX) it's invaluable
in testing and debugging.
I didn't think that the GUI would make as much of a difference as it does.
Of course the price was a consideration, since the tools I'm using now
(CLI + MySQL Administrator) are free, but the performance of SQLyog Enterprise combined
with my increased productivity more than makes up for the software cost.
Since the tool integrates so well into my existing workflow,
I felt that SQLyog Enterprise was a tool that helped rather
than hindered my productivity. So many software tools
require a great deal of overhead in maintaining and learning the tool
that I never use them to their full potential, whereas SQLyog Enterprise is
fairly intuitive enough that I was able to use it to do what
I needed within minutes of installing it. I had to migrate a database
from SQL Server to MySQL and the Migration Toolkit wizard made
mapping the fields and importing the data easy.
I also tend to do a lot of database backups and restores via MySQLdump,
and being able to easily backup and restore from a menu item is the biggest
time-saver that SQLyog Enterprise has to offer. Adding indexes, triggers
and relationships are also just a right-click away.
I'll never install phpMyAdmin again.
José Rubén Hernández - Banana Print I love the multiquery feature... it allows to test multiqueries for use in
.Net applications. I also like the exporting of tables,
the Synchronization of database structures is also great for
deploying new versions of the software.
Michele Mariotti - Web-developer, AVX di Angelo Bicelli & C. Snc I have tried your product for only 5-6 days before to buy it ...
its first program that I buy after less than 10-15 days (or more).
In Italy I say "like my home!" ... every time that I talk with other web-developer
I suggest to use this product (or Community version)
Some internet provider don't give me the possibilities to
remote connect at the database but I can still do that using the HTTP tunnel
Frédéric Thu - Cabinet-cilex Our Hoster doesn't allow a direct connection to the MySQL servers...
as phpMyAdmin quickly proves limited, SQLyog's Httptunneller allows us to
connect to these DBs as easily as to our internal development DBs... And the
DB structure comparison & update tools are very useful in a real industrial
approach, too!
Although we are a small French consultancy, we work with very big companies -
which binds us to (very) high development standards. SQLyog Enterprise
reduces the number of development tools we have to use - a quite
efficient approach...
High Performance MySQL, 2nd Edition - O'Reilly SQLyog is the most popular visual tool for MySQL. It is well designed to support DBA and developer productivity. The full feature list is too large to include here, but here are some highlights:
SQLyog also has all the standard features you'd expect, such as a schema editor.
Ray Cauchi
- TWEEK TWEEK has been using SQLyog Enterprise as its primary MySQL
database management tool since around 2003. SQLyog Enterprise has streamlined our
MySQL database management processes, enhanced communication between developers,
and become and essential part of my Project Management toolkit.
The Database Structure Synchronization tool would by far be my favorite SQLyog Enterprise
feature, however the Synchronization Wizard and its ability to hook into your OS
task scheduling mechanism is invaluable during the application
testing/debugging phase. SQLyog is a mature, fast and robust management
tool - with excellent
Import/Export functionality, a Visual Schema Designer which is great for
documentation and change management, and full of nifty features like SQL auto-complete
that enhance its usability. I always recommend SQLyog Enterprise to anyone who is in
requirement of a MySQL management toolkit.
Vincent de Lau - Web developer Having used command line tools and phpMyAdmin for years to manage my databases,
I tried SQLyog Community Edition to do some exports from a server with a very
old version of phpMyAdmin.
I caught myself using SQLyog more and more to prototype queries,
alter database structures, do maintenance work and run incidental reports.
In the past I used phpMyAdmin to do this, but almost all work has shifted to
SQLyog. The best thing is not having to switch windows when working on a
complex query. Although phpMyAdmin is a good tool, it can't beat a
Windows application on responsiveness and usability.
This experience led me to buy a full version of SQLyog Enterprise,
which even has more features that help me speed up my work and make my life easier.
Auto completion in the query editor helps me remember table and field names,
saving me a lot of time looking them up. The best new thing I discovered so
far is the HTTP tunneling feature however, enabling me to work on databases that
don't accept external connections.
I'm discovering new features every day! I can't imagine how I ever did without...
Zane Francis - Owner / Director, JX2 Technology Pvt Ltd We use SQLyog Enterprise for some database administration of our customers' MySQL
databases. It can save quite a bit of time, especially having multiple
queries in the Query editor and being able to execute each query
individually. Let's you step through things, and check on data as you go
along.
Where we get the most benefit though, is the Structure Synchronization Tool.
This has saved us countless hours. Our core product uses an abstracted
database layer that actually does a good job of generating our database
schema automatically. When we need to update a customer's database to a new
schema, we use the Structure Synchronization Tool to generate a difference
script between the two schema versions. This tool gets it right every time,
and takes minutes for a task that would typically take days to compile
manually with the number of tables we have.
We tested a few other products for this specific feature before trying
SQLyog and no others were as easy to use, and also give the result we were
after. We almost didn't try SQLyog Enterprise because we didn't think that we could
get the features we needed in a product that was sold at this price! I'm
glad we did! This product paid for itself 10 times over the first time we
run the Structure Synchronization Tool! Because it saves us so much time
and gets it right EVERY TIME, we are a lot more confident in getting new
features that our customers want in our software on a more regular basis.
Major Update does not equate to a major pain anymore.
While temporarily contracting for another company, I recommended SQLyog Enterprise for
the Database Synchronization Wizard (we were migrating some software from MS
SQL Server to MySQL). They purchased a license, and once again, this
software paid for itself on saved time in the first afternoon. For the rest
of the project, we used it to develop database maintenance scripts, design
new tables and relationships in the Schema Designer, and found it very handy
for importing data files (MySQL dumps as well as CSV files) across the
network.
I have already recommended it to others, and there is no reason why I won't
continue to do so. Keep up the great work guys!
Ben Dilts - Chief Technology Officer, Zane Benefits, Inc. I don't normally reply to this kind of inquiry, but SQLyog Enterprise has wildly,
inexpensively changed the way we deal with MySQL databases in
development and production. We stumbled onto SQLyog two years ago in a search
through the thick slime of buggy, half-implemented MySQL GUIs that seems to cover the
Internet.
The Community edition of SQLyog was a breath of fresh air, so
the (very low) price of entry to the Enterprise edition never gave us
pause. SQLyog Enterprise immediately became a vital part of our development environment.
The Structure Synchronization Tool helps me keep all our development
databases up to date, and makes deploying schema changes to production a
pleasure. Deployments of MySQL schema changes take minutes to prepare instead of
hours because of the Structure Synchronization Tool. The Scheduled Backups tool
allowed us to get an interim backup solution
running in production in minutes.
The index management tools and query timer have made optimizing complex
queries accessible to even junior developers. The Structure
Synchronization Tool allows me to review their indexing changes quickly
and integrate them into the master schema in moments.
Thanks for giving the world such a good product!
Antonio M. Giorgi - IT Director, Intellisan S.R.L. / formerly Omni5 In my long quest for a decent Front-end for MySQL, and after having
tested several free and commercial solutions, I found SQLyog. I tried the
free edition and soon upgraded to the Enterprise. It is a wonderful piece of
software, and by far the most powerful out there when it comes to MySQL. As
a developer and database administrator, I find myself having to manage a
high number of local and remote servers.
SQLyog's powerful synchronization features have made my life much easier as
modifications on the development workstation get replicated perfectly on
remote servers, and safely as well through SSH encrypted tunnel.
With the auto complete function added in the latest release, I now type my
queries much faster and always correct.
Definitely a must in every developer and Database administrator's toolbox.
Mark Cloyd - Owner / Programmer, Mark Cloyd Designs Dancing with joy... still. I have been using SQLyog Enterprise for some time now and
am convinced that it is simply the best MySQL management tool ever.
I have tried many different tools over the years, including those from the
MySQL website; I am really in to Open Source, but every once in a while a
product/program really stands out and is worth buying. Nothing touches
SQLyog Enterprise for easy, comprehensive power and usability.
When I first downloaded SQLyog, I was a little apprehensive, but excited to
see what it could do - well, after about an hour of poking around, I was
literally dancing around the room, my wife thought I was NUTS; it had
immediately solved many issues I had with different projects quickly and
easily. I have a couple of web-based applications that use in-house database
systems, to get that data on the web without complicated programming is now
a breeze with the Database Synchronization Wizard. Just a short set-up
process and the use of the integrated SQLyog Job Agent, data stored in a
separate system is easily updated to the web via the supplied Tunneling
Script for public use whenever updates are needed; it's awesome!
I recently had a rather large project that I converted from SQL to MySQL and
the Migration Tool Kit made the job a breeze, instead of spending hours
fretting over data types, complicated drivers and filters, and the sheer
size of the SQL database I was converting, I was immediately able to resume
work optimizing queries by quickly adding Indexes and viewing results in the
Query Analyzer; I didn't miss a step, my client was impressed and I was the
hero... being the hero is always a good thing.
Scheduled back-ups are a slam dunk too! I don't ever have to worry about
keeping backups current with regard to my clients databases, they now take
care of themselves, I am completely prepared for any loss of data that may
occur as a result of server issues; if for some reason a table is acting a
little buggy, the Table Diagnostics make identification and repair easy and
fast. Need a quick report of data within a table or from a specified query to
display for your client? SQLyog Enterprise makes exporting into either .CSV,.HTML,.XML
or .SQL files fast so you can display or send your data to your client
without delay. That works in reverse as well, if a client sends you data in
any of those formats, importing is just as easy and you no longer need to
spend time with complicated scripts to import data.
I could go on, but suffice it to say that SQLyog Enterprise has saved me time and money
and has taken a lot of thought and worry out of database management.
Emile Schenk - Donauweb IT Solutions, Austria SQLyog Enterprise is a very practical, easy-to-use, fast application.
I like especially the SSH and PHP tunnel and the synchronization and the easy way
to copy a table to a remote database or to another name.
I used the free version for a long time before I needed the features
of the licensed version. So I knew what I was going to buy, and never I was reluctant to buy
because there is so much support in the forum that I knew that problems
would be solved and I felt Very Happy, SQLyog Enterprise helps me
to be more productive. I had several issues in the last years and all of them
solved through the forum and SQLyog Enterprise helps me to be faster and more productive.
Nikolaj Lisberg Hansen - Solution Architect, Olio Aps Before I bought SQLyog Enterprise Edition, I used the Community Edition
for administration of my girlfriend's web shop (http://www.tuttlemousie.com),
because normally only phpMyAdmin is available for hosted websites and it just
doesn't do the job properly. But we found a hosting provider that allows
database administration from a specific IP address, and were thus able to use SQLyog Enterprise.
SQLyog has a simple user interface that my girlfriend can use to look at the data, even though
she is not a computer professional.
Nair Sandesh - Assistant Manager, Sitel India Ltd User friendliness and security were the main concerns. Also, there is a
always a perception that foreign products / or products developed by the
MySQL company are given more preference rather than a 3rd party. But SQLyog
Enterprise proved this cliche wrong.
Earlier we were using phpMyAdmin which was web-based. So we decided to
use the SQLyog Enterprise for a year in order to understand the feature it is
providing. As we are still your customer from last 3 years, itself it
defines that we like your product. The best part of this product is that
it comes up with updated version. The SQLyog Enterprise in this year has evolved
into very competive product. Better management of database and access control.
Also with the latest version of directly exporting the data into excel.
Michael Phipps - Owner, Gravity Spike I am the owner of a Web Development Business in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
Quite simply, I was frustrated with the user experience of phpMyAdmin.
It was just too slow. I can't even remember how I came across SQLyog Enterprise
I've been using it forever, and have had no reason to ever look for any other software and
I use SQLyog on a daily basis to quickly generate and manage the databases that drive the websites
I build for customers.
I'd say the original selling point for me was the tunneling.
I just drop a small php file onto any client's website, and
I can start working on their database, in less time than it would take to log into phpMyAdmin.
David Choi - PhpSNS.com First of all, I have tried every MySQL Client that exists on the market
in different platforms (Windows, Linux, Mac) but SQLyog Enterprise is the best
MySQL Client in the world! Now I am using Linux desktop for PHP script
development and I am surprised that SQLyog also works flawlessly with
WINE.
The best thing about SQLyog Enterprise is the ability to access
remote servers via HTML protocol by uploading a SQLyog tunnel file via
FTP, which is indispensable for me when I need to install my PHP/MySQL
scripts so I don't have to request access info for client's hosting
control panels (which is very sensible) to be able to use phpMyAdmin all
the time.
The only bad thing about using SQLyog Enterprise is, you will forget about using
SQL commands because almost everything can be done via MySQL GUI!
Eric Chaudry - Director of Operations, ForceData Solutions / ReachCast (Telecom) SQLyog Enterprise does exactly what it said it would do. It even has additional
features such as SSH tunneling as security is always a priority when
transporting data between office locations. As a result of using SQLyog Enterprise, It
saves us time and gets the job done; very good for productivity. Excellent
product and we've been using it for years!
Richard Varno - CIEIO, RVPS Inc I Love SQLyog Enterprise, use it every day.
The free trial eliminated all reluctance to buy.
Once I saw how good your product was, I was happy to pay for it as
I thought it was very reasonably priced.
And I felt very happy because I could finally start
concentrating on writing code rather than fighting with the development tools.
And I was able to re-write our entire ecommerce system in 2 months
Arturo Herrera Carrion - HEC Systems The team at Webyog are exceptional
I'm fascinated by the speed & quality of their actions/responses to our queries.
SQLyog Enterprise has saved me much time and money.
The product is priced too economical. I use it to backup my DB, compare & sync schemas.
Gabriel Barazer - I first used the free version (or trial, i don't remember),
then bought the first $9 version, then used the community version for a while
and finally decided to buy the enterprise version only to support your development:
I think your work is really worth it, so I will continue to support the
product and when I will have the opportunity to deploy it in my company,
I will be glad to buy the enterprise packs.
SQLyog Enterprise is Efficient! phpMyAdmin is very slow for DML operations, and SQLyog Enterprise for
that is very cool. Besides, the software itself is very fast, being programmed
with the windows API and not the very slow (portable,
but who cares? it is a _client_ tool, not a server software) bull***t
like Java or dotNet. I surprised myself using SQLyog Enterprise as a frontend for
my test applications instead of programming HTML interfaces to manipulate SQL data.
The cell system rocks (especially the fact that you don't have to click any button to update or insert a row)! I use it mainly for DML operations.
Jesús Peńa Martínez - Jefe de Proyecto Sistemas Información - Bankinter, S.A. I had always missed SQLyog Enterprise before I had known it. But Since I use it,
the MySQL server is so easy to manage than I believe. It seems more powerful
than other databases engines, and I feel comfortable and I have improved my efficiency a lot.
Tommy Jonsson - Jonsson Systems, Sweden I was recommended by a friend/colleague so I just belived him and
started using SQLyog Enterprise. Using it daily since then should say it all. By using SQLyog Enterprise I'm more
competitive compared to other persons/consultant/companies who rely on the perhaps
installed phpMyAdmin for example. I'm faster, have less problems and know
more than the other which is good. It's easier to make proposals on fixed price
level and execute the project within acceptable man-hours so the profit don't
disappear because it's to slow making back end development with wrong or no tools
at all. So I maintain my business performance this way.
Jean Claude Villeneuve - Touchtunes I use SQLyog Enterprise in the last 4 years through 2 different companies since
it's the best, most flexible and feature rich software to manage
multiple databases and schemas in an R&D environment. I can easily and
quickly access databases, perform maintenance or modification as well as
developing queries very quick.
Dewey Gaedcke - Minggl We Love SQLyog..........it is an awesome tool
Jim Crews - South Carolina Conference The United Methodist Church SQLyog Enterprise is great, I have looked at almost all MySQL managers, and
used another one prior to discovering SQLyog Enterprise for about 3 years.
SQLyog Enterprise replaced it, SQLyog Enterprise is a very useful utility.
