What do you find to be wrong with it? It's always done the job well for me, whereas Sequel Pro, while a prettier face, and useable enough, manages to crash at least once a day.


PGAdmin crashes regularly, and in a very annoying (and stupid!) move blocks the UI for all the windows on some database operations e.g. adding indexes. It also blocks the UI when it's processing the results of a db query, which can be slow if there is a lot of data being returned. The interface is sort-of ok though.


I don't see how that's "unspeakable bad, terrible, terrible". Latest versions crash a lot less and if you really need to use UI during long database queries you can run another instance of pgadmin. It's still very useful and powerful tool.


Sad to hear that hasn't been fixed since I left a couple of years ago...
