About DataGrip

DataGrip is the database IDE from JetBrains, the company behind IntelliJ IDEA and PyCharm. It connects to more than 50 relational and NoSQL databases and brings JetBrains' code intelligence to SQL: context-aware completion that understands your schema, on-the-fly error highlighting, inspections, quick-fixes, refactorings that rename objects across scripts, and a query history with local recovery. The data editor, schema navigation, diff tools and query plan views are all strong, and JetBrains AI can write and explain SQL with schema awareness. The same database tooling is built into other paid JetBrains IDEs. DataGrip runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. It is free for non-commercial use; commercial use needs a per-user subscription, either for DataGrip alone or as part of the All Products Pack. It is a heavier app than many clients and the interface takes time to learn, but people who write a lot of SQL often find the editor worth it.

Best for: Developers who write a lot of SQL and want IDE-grade completion and refactoring.
