Alternative Mysql gui than Navicat for OSX

Hi there i am looking for an alternative gui app than navicat for osx.
Ive used CocoaMysql in the past and is limited in terms of
administration, however has more working features than navicat ever
does.

I assumed this product was pretty good, however after purchasing boy
was i wrong. I wished SqlYog had an osx version as it is a very good
application. These people have extremely poor support and have features
missing out of it which should be in there in the first place, like
advanced dump options like adding bloody drop table statements LOL,
they claimed its a feature request. Im really peeved now so i am
telling people not to buy this product they are ignoring all my tickets
now.

The application systematically crashes just doing something simple , i
cannot find any crash logs in the normal places osx apps usually use,
and ive just found thats its storing saved queries and saved views in a
folder called osx in my /Applications root folder not in the Navicat
folder or a preference folder ! I had no idea what it is and like to
clean my machine up alot and kept trashing it and couldnt work out why
the saved queries went missing, this is extremely poor programming.

So dont buy navicat , stick with the terminal client :D

What is it you are looking for in the application? I use DBVisualizer free
version for most of my mysql and oracle use. You can give it a try and see
if you like it or not.
