Completely free and very powerful database manager. Works good on Linux using Wine (using 5.18 at this moment). As of 5.11 supports: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL, SQLite

Since v12.10.1.133 natively support Linux.

Very easy program, good functionality, but a very many of bugs, low stability, frequent crashes (v 9.x).

[Edited by gennadysmagin, July 19] The program is still extremely unstable. Falls and crashes happen all the time.
