Paid plans start at $6.83/mo. There's also a free plan.
DBeaver Community costs $0 and is free and open-source under Apache 2.0. The lowest listed paid rate is $6.83 per user per month, but that is a Team Edition Viewer seat with a three-person minimum and a required Administrator. For an individual, Lite Edition starts at $9.42 per user per month. These are annual prices shown as monthly equivalents; monthly prices are not published. Paid plans include a 14-day trial.

02What the plan grid doesn't tell you
Annual billing only
The pricing page lists annual prices as monthly equivalents. Monthly prices are not published, so do not treat these rates as month-to-month pricing.
Team seat minimum
The $6.83 Viewer rate requires a team of at least three, including one Administrator and two other users. It is not a one-seat price.
Community limits unclear
Community is free, but seat and usage limits are not published. The free price alone does not establish capacity for a larger deployment.
CloudBeaver price unpublished
CloudBeaver Enterprise requires at least five users, but its price is not published. The standard trial is 14 days; AWS Marketplace lists 30 days.
03Which plan should you buy?
| If you are… | Get | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Personal or free-use database users | Community | It is free and open-source. Start here unless you need the additional database or cloud support offered by the commercial PRO version. |
| One individual database user | Lite Edition | It is licensed for one user and costs $9.42 per user per month billed annually. Confirm the edition’s support fits before paying. |
| Teams considering the lowest seat rate | Team Edition — Viewer | The listed rate is $6.83 per user per month billed annually, but the team needs at least three users and one Administrator. |
04Is DBeaver worth the money?
DBeaver is easy to justify at $0 if Community covers the databases and work you need. The paid pricing is less straightforward: the headline $6.83 rate is a team seat, while an individual starts at $9.42 per month on annual billing. We would not pay for a higher edition based on the plan names alone; the published pricing details do not spell out the feature differences. Check support requirements first, then use the 14-day trial to confirm fit.
DBeaver pricing FAQ
What is a CloudBeaver?
CloudBeaver Enterprise is DBeaver’s server-license option for teams, according to the pricing details. It requires at least five users, but its price is not published. The standard trial is 14 days; the AWS Marketplace edition lists a 30-day trial.
Which is better, DBeaver or SQL Developer?
The available product information does not compare DBeaver with SQL Developer, so we can’t call one better. DBeaver supports relational databases including MySQL, SQL Server and PostgreSQL. Compare the database support and features you need before choosing.
How can I list all databases in DBeaver?
DBeaver’s product details confirm that it connects to and helps manage and explore SQL databases, but they do not give a menu path or command for listing databases. We can’t verify the exact steps from the available information.
Is DBeaver Community free?
Yes. Community is listed at $0 and is free and open-source under Apache 2.0. The pricing details do not publish seat or usage limits, so check whether those matter for your setup rather than assuming the free plan has no limits.
