Alternatives

A PopSQL alternative built for collaborative exports

Q: Why choose DataPilot as a PopSQL alternative?

DataPilot combines a collaborative SQL workspace (comments and version history) with scheduled CSV/Excel exports, notification-driven downloads, and optional on-prem execution via agent.

Q: Can I schedule SQL exports to CSV or Excel?

Yes. You can run now or schedule recurring exports, attach CSV or Excel (LargeXlsx streaming), and download the latest file from notifications.

Q: Can exports run on premises?

Yes. On-prem workers can run schedules near your protected databases. The workspace still follows the same delivery loop with notifications and downloads.

Keep SQL collaborative with comments and version history, then deliver results as scheduled CSV or Excel exports. Notifications make it obvious which file is the latest, and on-prem execution is available when data must stay inside your network.

Supported databases: PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MySQL, Amazon Redshift. More databases are coming.

Collaborative SQL workspace

Work in a shared query workspace where comments and version history stay attached to the SQL. When you rerun a query or review a change, you keep the context that explains why the export exists.

Scheduled exports with notifications

Turn trusted queries into repeatable exports. Run now or schedule recurring jobs, attach CSV or Excel (LargeXlsx streaming), and let notifications deliver the download action so teams stop grabbing stale files.

On-prem execution when data can’t move

Choose where schedules run: cloud, desktop, or on-prem with an agent. The goal is one delivery loop (run → export → notify → download) even when your databases live behind the firewall.

Documentation stays close to SQL

Browse schemas, tables, columns, and native comments next to your editor so documentation and exports stay aligned. Editing comments as DDL inside the database is on the roadmap; today the catalog focuses on visibility and fast navigation.
