QueryStorm

Experimenting with what SQL can offer and blending all this functionality with the goodies Excel puts at your disposal could result in a successful project. But if you are unsure about what tool is capable of bringing all these benefits together, you might want to stumble upon QueryStorm.

The Excel plugin promises to offer both processing capabilities and some development tools so that you can interact with data just as if it belonged to a database while being able to view it via Excel’s intuitive GUI.

The developer claims that QueryStorm is able to work as a natural extension of your databases and the other way around, which means you can transfer data with minimal effort, regardless of the direction. Regardless of whether you are using MySQL, SQL Server, Postgres, ODBC, Access, SQLite, Oracle, or Redshift, QueryStorm should handle it.

Aside from that, support for C# is provided, and you can turn to almost any .NET library out there in order to load data. Another aspect worth bringing into discussion refers to QueryStorm’s ability to design interactive workbooks.

Last but not least, as regards the Excel plugin’s IDE, you can expect it to offer modern functionality such as auto formatting, autocomplete, function insights, error squiggles, symbol actions, and more.
