dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL
dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL is an IDE for PostgreSQL development, database management, data analysis, and reporting. Its SQL editor offers context-aware completion, object suggestions, and syntax checks as you type. The Data Editor supports viewing and changing records, plus sorting, grouping, and filtering. Schema Compare finds differences between database structures and can synchronize them; Data Compare does the same for table contents. Import and export options include CSV, SQL, XLSX, JSON, ODBC, and Google Sheets, and command-line workflows cover comparisons, data generation, and transfers. It supports PostgreSQL and services including Supabase, Heroku, Amazon RDS, Azure PostgreSQL, and TimescaleDB. Express costs 0.00 USD per free; Standard is 89.95 USD per year and Professional is 139.95 USD per year. The Studio has a free plan and a 30-day trial. Its documented requirements specify Microsoft Windows and .NET Framework 4.7.2 or higher; Devart describes running it on macOS or Linux with CrossOver. The separate AI Assistant needs its own license or 14-day trial.
