Commercial Features

Commercial features

While Toad Edge® is free to use for everyone in its basic Freeware version, the most advanced features are available to users with Trial or Commercial licenses. This topic aims to guide you through all of the extra functionality that could be useful in your production.

NOTE: A comprehensive comparison matrix of Freeware and Commercial versions can be found here.

JSON structure visualization
  • JSON columns, usable in MySQL 5.7 and newer, can be easily viewed in Object Explorer even when they are nested
JSON data editor
  • Instead of struggling to change a particular value in complex JSON data, you will be able to use an in-built editor with advanced bracket highlighting options
MySQL event editor
  • While you can see Events in Freeware version of Toad Edge, you will be also able to edit these objects directly in Object Detail
  • New Object Wizard will also help you to create new Events with ease
Advanced user privilege management
  • One of the most valuable features for database administrators is the ability to grant and revoke various user privileges at server, user or even object level
Backup and Restore
  • You can create backups of your database/schema using SQL provider-specific binaries like mysqldump, pg_dump etc. via Toad Edge user friendly wizards. These binaries will create backup files. You can also restore your database/schema using these generated backup files.

Lock Manager for PostgreSQL and EDB

  • This view displays all PostgreSQL/EDB database locks . You can observe all blocking and blocked locks of all connected users and also stop the blocking lock with the appropriate privileges.

SQL Worksheet/Editor
Advanced Content Assist
  • Content Assist is present in the Freeware version. However, upgrading allows you to configure its function
Editable result grid
  • Easily select any data that fits your requirements and modify its value right in the result grid
Export
Export to CSV
  • Export your entire table, selected rows or even query results to the universally used CSV format file
Schema Compare
  • This powerful tool makes database difference resolution significantly easier. You can:
    • Compare two different Schemas/Databases, even across two different database connections of the same platform and version
    • View all SQL code differences between two objects
    • Compare two objects with the same name based on their timestamps
    • Generate an HTML report detailing each and every difference found
    • Generate and deploy change scripts to automatically resolve the differences
Snapshots
  • By taking a snapshot of your database, you will be able to store its structure as a JSON file and use it as a backup or as a reference for Schema Compare
Versioning/Collaboration
Repository
  • This feature brings databases and version control systems together
  • Map your database to a file system and Toad Edge will transfer your database metadata to a folder structure populated with JSON files representing individual objects, referred to as a repository
  • Then, use any version control system to manage the repository
Automation
Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery
  • Enhance your workflow by utilizing Toad Edge CI/CD features to perform periodic tasks with no manual input
  • Toad Edge is able to generate scripts and JAR files, which can be used by your automation server (such as Jenkins or TeamCity)
Other application features
Code snippets and templates
  • Create many code templates and then reuse them by invoking a specific custom keyword. This ability saves you a significant amount of effort in the long run
Session Browser
  • This view displays all current database sessions and is updated continuously. Observe all connected users and the states of their sessions while also being able to stop any of them, assuming you possess the appropriate privileges
