You can try DBeaver.  It is a generic GUI tool which works with practically
all RDBMS.  It is java based, and I find it bit slow. However judging by the
frequent updates I get, it seems to be very active.

Have you looked at EMS SQL-Manager, I don't remember PgAdmin having any 
where near hte features that it has :-P



Even though it's prone to
crashing on my machine and I have paid for datagrip I still reach for
it first.




It depends entirely on your personal preference, not so much on the 
features of the tool,
there are whole subcultures in the IT world who swear by VIM. I tend to 
swear *at* VIM.


But in the end it's personal preference and requirements that decide 
which is the best tool.
I use DbSchema because of how quickly and visually I can create tables, 
but I use DataGrip to execute

queries to actually manage a database, create functions, views etc.

Most tools have free preview licences so download them try them out, see 
what feels good to you.
Just remember that a tool is not a substitute for knowledge, knowing 
where to click in a GUI

is not the same as knowing how to maintain a database.

There is also DbSchema, for getting a good overview of your tables.
I use Jetbrains dataGrip for maintenance etc. I find that using a GUI 
for things like creating functions is nice
but you never really learn what's going on so you are in trouble when 
you have to do something and your GUI is not available.

I've grown quite fond of pgModeler:
https://www.pgmodeler.com.br/

It's working really nice, has some layout validation checks, good
visualization features, easy to use and if you really need you can
also put in some SQL statements by hand.

It lacks however some administration capabilities so it's best used
with pgAdmin (or use the pgsql cli).

Cheers,
Thore

I recommend that you can try Squirrel SQL.
(http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=screenshots)

It is a SQL tool based on JVM. You can execute it whether on Linux or
WIndow, even MAC.
It use JDBC to connect Database. So that you can install differet JDBC
Driver to connect to different databases, such as Oracle (Thin Driver) ,
PostgreSQL (Pg JDBC), MS-SQL ( JTDS ) and so on.

Beside DDL oprations, I also use it to copy data in order to build sandbox
environment. Select the table, Right click and Copy it, then Paste it. Only
three steps to create a new table with data for test or development
purpose. Some nice facilities I often used are rotated table, view metadata
and monitor server performance. Yes, it can also export the data you
fetched as Excel or CVS file.

Try it and you will love it !


Regards,
Chingyuan

If you are a Java person, go to executequery.org and download the jar
file or the Deb package and install it.
It has the advantage of being able to work on multiple RDBMSs' at the
same time. All you need are the appropriate JDBC's. For example, you
could be connected to a Postgres database and also an Oracle one.

HTH.

I still use pgadmin3. I also have a subscription to the jetbrains tools so
I also give datagrip a try once in a while. Datagrip has a lot going for it
but it's lagging behind pgadmin3 is a lot of ways so it hasn't replaced it
for me.

You can try SQL Manager for PostgreSql. The Lite edition is enough ans 
it's free.

It's fast, secure and very friendly.
