In their own words
DBeaver
DBeaver is a database management product range that includes a free, open-source Community edition and paid editions. Community supports databases with a JDBC driver and can also work with external data sources that lack one. Its desktop tools include an SQL editor, spreadsheet-like data editing, a visual query builder, and tools for importing, exporting, comparing, and migrating data. DBeaver says its products connect to more than 100 sources, including SQL, NoSQL, and cloud databases. Ultimate adds native AWS, GCP, and Azure support with Cloud Explorer for cloud and on-premise databases. The wider range includes CloudBeaver Enterprise as a web-server application and Team Edition as a server platform with GraphQL and REST APIs, an MCP server, and a JDBC proxy driver. DBeaver supports Windows 10 or later, Windows Server 2016 or later, macOS 11 or later, and most modern Linux distributions. Community is free under Apache License 2. Paid individual subscriptions include Lite at $12 a month or $113 a year, Enterprise at $26 a month or $255 a year, and Ultimate at $51 a month or $510 a year.
