Courses Plus Student 933 PointsBest offline tool
I have downloaded many tools through the Internet, but unfortunately I did not find one that meet my expectation. I have downloaded Navicat software, but at the end I discovered that this tool used for online database. then I have downloaded Valentina Studio and RazorSQL and others. Now I am confuse and it is hard to test all softwares to find the best one for the beginners like me? so which one of these softwares (Navicat, Valentina, RazorSQL and mySQL) do you recommend?

If you are using a different local database then which tool you use will depend upon that database. In almost all cases that a beginner would encounter it would be best to use the tool that comes from the vendor of the database you are using, such as in the case of mySQL Workbench.
