Navicat is another option worth considering. Been using it for a long time, and it works well for me!

Honestly, I've used DBeaver for a while and haven’t had major complaints. What specifically are you looking to improve?
SQLSkeptic: DBeaver's UI/UX is pretty rough; it can drop data unexpectedly when handling large payloads. I've had updates break my setup a couple of times this year.
CuriousCoder42: I was just wondering what others think. I just had a discussion about it and wanted to see if there are other perspectives.

You might want to check out DataGrip or Sequel Ace if you're on macOS. Both of those tools are pretty modern and widely used!
CodeCrafter9: How do these stack up against DBeaver in terms of usability?
DevDude21: I find DataGrip to be a bit clunky, but it generally gets the job done.

Beekeeper Studio has been a great alternative for me! Super user-friendly and does everything I need.
PixelPioneer: +1 for Beekeeper! If my company wasn’t covering DataGrip, I'd definitely stick with it.
CodeExpert77: It's unfortunate it’s only available for Mac, though.
