I'm interested to find the best desktop database query tool for PostgreSQL. Some options are PGadmin, RazorSQL. I'm interested to know which are the best ones.

After evaluating a bunch of GUI-based options for OSX I settled on Navicat for Postgresql because to me, it has a more natural UI than pgAdmin (at least for OSX).

I find pgAdmin has a better query analysis tool though so I've got it installed as well.

---

For some definition of 'best' I humbly offer up psql; it is fast and easy, free, and already installed. :)

---

For query only I use DbVisualiser. It is a cross platform Java application.

---

There is no "best". But I do like pgAdmin, works on any OS, not just OS X, and is for free. You could also use OpenOffice Base to connect to your database, using JDBC.

We Use PGAdmin. Not had any issues with it other than the following (unsatisfactory answered - by myself) question I posted a while back.
