dbForge Studio for MySQL vs MySQL: Which is best for you?

The schema, data comparison, and merge functionality are highly efficient and well-executed, providing excellent accuracy and seamless integration.

The bug reporting process is overly complex and invasive.

Biggest benefit that I see with MySQL is it supports addition of columns to desired position (using BEFORE and AFTER keyword), this basic functionality is not provided with premier tools like Postgre SQL.

Compared to other databases like PostgreSQL or Oracle, MySQL lacks some advanced features such as full-text search and partial indexes, which may be a limitation for certain use cases.
