ChartDB vs. DrawSQL vs. ESF Database Migration Toolkit vs. SQLite Data Access Components Comparison Chart

ChartDB is an open source, web‑based database diagramming tool that instantly visualizes your schema, whether from popular DBMSs like PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite, ClickHouse, and Oracle, or via a single query, without needing database access or complex setup. You can edit diagrams interactively using drag‑and‑drop, add annotations, or customize relationships, then export clean, dialect‑specific SQL DDL scripts or share diagrams as images. ChartDB Cloud accelerates workflows further with features like real‑time collaboration, live cursors, team avatars, and synced edits, plus auto‑saving of your work. Its AI assistant enhances productivity by detecting missing relationships, recommending foreign keys, and suggesting schema optimizations with a single click. Diagrams stay current through automated schema synchronization via a secure syncer CLI, ideal for CI/CD pipelines, preserving layout and styling even as your data model evolves.

It dramatically cuts the effort, cost, and risk of migrating to/from any of the following database formats: Oracle, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, IBM DB2, IBM Informix, InterSystems Caché, Teradata, Visual Foxpro, SQLite, FireBird, InterBase, Microsoft Access, Microsoft Excel, Paradox, Lotus, dBase, CSV/Text and transfer any ODBC DSN data source to them. This software can help you quickly migrate a variety of data, structures and objects, saving you a lot of time and money. It will automatically migrate all table structures, data, schemas(Oracle, SQL Server 2000 or higher, PostgreSQL, IBM DB2 and so), LOBs(Large Text/Binary Objects), primary/foreign keys, indexes, auto-increment(serial), comments and default values and more. You can migrate data between two different character sets(e.g.: UTF8, CP1250 etc.) and the software automatically convert different data encodings. You can also change the field name/data type/nullable/precision/numscale or filter data when migrating.
