Product Description:

Aqua Data Studio is a database developer's complete Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The IDE provides three major areas of functionality: A) Database query and administration tool, B) a Suite of compare tools for databases, source control and filesystems and C) a complete and integrated source control client for Subversion (SVN) and CVS.

Database IDE: The database query and administration tools allow developers to easily create, edit, and execute SQL scripts, as well as browse and visually modify database structures. Aqua Data Studio provides an integrated database environment with a single consistent interface to all major relational databases. This allows the database administrator or developer to tackle multiple tasks simultaneously from one application.
Compare Tools: The suite of compare tools allows the user to easily view the differences of RDBMS servers, databases and schemas for database tasks. The tools also allow the user to view the differences of files, directory structures, source control files and full revisions.
Version Control: The version control client provides a complete client to Subversion and CVS repositories, allowing the user to easily manage all source control repositories within one easy to use IDE, via the Repository Browser.

$400 for a simple SQL query tool? WOW! - Version: 7.5, 4/28/2009 09:04AM PST

Well, the 6.x version was free, and 7.5 is $400 for 1 license, even though it's pretty much the same as 6.x. It's a fairly simple SQL query tool - there are plenty a lot more complex tools out there for Windows, for example, which are _free_. There aren't as many for Mac OS X, unfortunately, but that definitely does not justify the price tag.

The 7.5 suffers from most of the same issues as the 6.5: it's fat and slow (as you'd expect from a Java app), and many of the standard Mac OS X keyboard shortcuts do not work (close window for example). Beyond that - it's just a SQL query tool. And it's about 10 times more expensive than it should be.

Despite the system requirements listed, this only runs on 64-bit Macs. Any Mac older than a year or so will not work.
