Overview
Navicat is a graphical client for managing and developing databases, covering MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQL Server, SQLite, MongoDB, Redis and Snowflake. Separate products add data modelling, BI dashboards and database monitoring. An On-Prem Server edition lets a team host shared connections and real-time collaboration itself rather than using Navicat Cloud.
