CloudBeaver review
A flexible web SQL workspace with a free open-source edition and paid team controls.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
CloudBeaver is a browser-based database management application for analysts, developers, support teams, and other data-focused users. It provides a web interface for connecting to SQL, NoSQL, and cloud databases, running SQL, browsing schemas, editing table data, building queries visually, exporting results, and reviewing query history. Its deployment options include self-hosted, on-premises, and cloud environments, making it a fit for teams that want shared database tooling through a browser rather than a desktop-only workflow.
Pricing is split between a free Community Edition and the commercial CloudBeaver Enterprise edition. Community Edition is free to use, open-source under the Apache 2 license, and delivered as a web server with a browser interface. The published Enterprise plan costs $1,025 per server license per year, with a license for a limited number of users, browser-based database management, user group permissions, and on-premises or cloud deployment. A 14-day free trial is also available. This structure suits teams that can self-host or start with the open-source edition, while organizations needing centralized permissions should review the Enterprise licensing model.
CloudBeaver’s feature set reaches beyond SQL editing. The browser-based editor includes formatting, autocomplete, and syntax highlighting; the Data Editor supports viewing, filtering, sorting, and table edits; and the Visual Query Builder covers tables, joins, filters, selected columns, and sorting. SSH tunnels support password or public-key authentication, while exports include CSV, JSON, SQL, XLSX, XML, and other formats. Integrations include OpenAI, Azure AI, Google Gemini, GitHub Copilot, SAML, LDAP, AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and a GraphQL API. Teams wanting browser-based access, broad database connectivity, and deployment control should consider CloudBeaver. Those seeking a simple per-user monthly pricing model or features without edition distinctions may prefer another tool.
