Import/export data in SQL, CSV, XML, PDF. Search across databases. Create views, triggers, stored procedures. Perfect for developers, DBAs, and non-technical users who need visual DB management.
Remote MySQL

SSL/TLS encryption supported. Add multiple IPs or IP ranges. Remove access anytime. Ideal for developers running local apps connected to production DB.
Database Backup

Perfect for restoring from backups after migration or recovery. Panel validates import completion and confirms data integrity.
Granular DB Permissions

Database Size Tracking
See per-database disk usage in client panel. Track growth trends over time. Identify bloated tables. Set alerts when approaching quota. Historical size reports for capacity planning. Perfect for agencies managing client websites. Database size statistics refresh hourly with accurate disk allocation (including indexes and overhead).
