# SQLPro Studio vs PG Orbit

The clearest difference is rating: PG Orbit at 5.0 against SQLPro Studio's 4.3. PG Orbit also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 72%) and device support (4 vs 2). SQLPro Studio's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly) and ratings volume (63 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SQLPro Studio sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per month and PG Orbit sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PG Orbit holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SQLPro Studio has 63 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of SQLPro Studio's written reviews are positive against 100% of PG Orbit's.

SQLPro Studio ships an update every 4 days, PG Orbit fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
