- Advanced table designing and altering. No need to manually type CREATE TABLE statements, from a single sheet you can add, edit and remove columns & constraints to your heart's content, maintaining or moving the original data within them.
- Quick data find & filter. Build lengthy SELECT statements with a few clicks, previewing results as you go.
- Easy SQL editing, with clear syntax highlighting and useful SQL autocompletion
- Store your commonly used SQL as snippets for easy re-use later
- Easy import, comprehensive export. Bring in data from CSV or SQL files. Export to SQL, delimited text, XML or Microsoft Excel-compatible formats.
Trial limitations:
- 15-minute sessions and custom queries only return 5 rows.

- That users should not confuse this with another product of the same name.
- To inform the developer by naming the product the same as another product that is under the umbrella of a megacorporation that is not known for altruistic acts, the developer could be risking a legal action.
What do I get from this -- nothing. I am just trying to be helpful, reduce possible confusion from prospective customers, and help the developer avoid a potential lawsuit.

This app is nothing too crazy for fancy, but it's clean and intuitive and nice. It does just what I need and does it well. Good purchase.

Add Index, Remove Index, and Add Column now the Add Column one is missing.
I can only imagine this is a temporary oversight as it seems good software.
If the ability is still there then there's a interface issue as it must be well hidden somewhere.

Seems the Cog > Alter... does work after all. Seems that there's a small bug that manifests itself with certain tables, and that previously didn't work for me.
That said, I'm not sure why the developer hid the "Add Column" away from where it was before.

Base takes a middle ground, in that it can be launched an unlimited number of times, but quits with a notice after 15 minutes. It also limits the results returned from a custom query. I took this approach so that casual users could use the app with little hindrance, but professional/heavy users would need to register.
Lastly, MacUpdate lets you categorise software as one of the following: Free, Demo, Shareware, Updater or Commercial. I think Shareware fits the bill better than any of the others.
Hope this clarifies matters.
