QueryDeck vs DBeaver
QueryDeck is a native macOS database client built with Swift. Free and open-source, but built on Eclipse.Here's how they compare.
Eclipse-based, not native, clunky on macOS.
Slow startup, high memory consumption.
UI feels dated and cluttered.
Community has basic AI and ERD only; advanced AI chat, smart features, and full ERD require paid tiers ($113-255/yr).
Paid AI requires configuring external providers (OpenAI, Ollama, etc.).
Native Swift: fast, lightweight, macOS-native.
Sub-second launch vs multi-second Eclipse boot.
Clean, modern interface designed for macOS.
Full ERD generation included, no paid tier needed.
Full AI assistant included in the base price with BYO key.
