The find interface only presents data in a tabular/text model, so it could be an issue when you are working with multilevel documents. The UI is no frills, fairly easy to use, and supports all the common options of working with collections, stats, etc. You can also choose to run the PHP server on your local box. The downside of the HTML-based approach is that you need a PHP server to run this GUI. The GUI is authored in PHP and is open source. In our experience, the software appears to work fairly well, but it doesn’t seem like it is being maintained, so use at your own risk.ģ) RockMongo is an HTML-based MongoDB GUI. Also, there is no way to save a find query for later. The query interface is a little bit more limited in that it only seems to support a tree view. The 'StatMonitor' feature gives you a live display of stats a.k.a mongostat. It provides you an option to connect to your MongoDB server through an SSH tunnel which is fairly convenient from a security perspective. Overall the software appears stable and well-maintained.Ģ) MongoHub is a native Mac GUI for MongoDB. The more advanced features require you to purchase a license. You can also save your find queries for later usage-we find this rather convenient. Data can be presented in text view, tree view, or table view. It has a simple clean UI and the basic features are free. As always your mileage might vary depending on your scenario and preferences.ġ) MongoVUE is a desktop GUI for the windows platform. Our main scenarios are data visualization, presentation, and editing. Our customers regularly ask us which UI we recommend-below are some of the options for MongoDB UI we have considered. There are a number of options when it comes to MongoDB GUI, some good and some not so good.
