FAQ

Common SQL Server questions.

Does it work with Azure SQL?

Yes. AAD auth and SQL auth both. TablePro follows the gateway redirect.

Can I see execution plans?

Yes. Press Cmd+L on a query to show the SQL Server execution plan as a tree.

Is TablePro free?

Yes. AGPLv3 open source. The SQL Server driver ships built in.

Does it support SSPI / Kerberos?

Kerberos via gss-api works on Linux and Mac with kinit. Pure SSPI Windows auth needs the SQL auth fallback.

How does it compare to SSMS or Azure Data Studio on Mac?

SSMS is Windows-only. Microsoft's cross-platform option is Azure Data Studio, which is Electron-based. TablePro is a native SwiftUI Mac app: faster start, lower RAM, with the same SQL Server feature coverage you need day to day.

Try TablePro for free.

Free and open-source. macOS 14+. Apple Silicon and Intel.
