Frequently Asked Questions

What is a CockroachDB GUI?
A CockroachDB GUI is a visual desktop client that lets you browse schemas, run SQL, and edit rows without using cockroach sql on the command line. 1bench is a modern CockroachDB GUI for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Does CockroachDB have a GUI?
CockroachDB includes a built-in DB Console for cluster monitoring — node health, replication, and performance metrics — but not a full SQL editor. For day-to-day database work, you install a third-party CockroachDB GUI like 1bench to browse tables, run queries, and edit data inline.
What is the best CockroachDB GUI for Mac, Windows, or Linux?
A good CockroachDB GUI should run natively on your OS, support TLS and SSH tunnels, and let you browse schemas, run SQL, and edit rows without leaving the app. 1bench delivers all of this with a single download for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Can a CockroachDB GUI connect to CockroachDB Cloud and self-hosted clusters?
Yes. Any CockroachDB GUI that speaks the PostgreSQL wire protocol can connect to CockroachDB Cloud (Serverless and Dedicated) and self-hosted clusters. 1bench supports TLS by default and SSH tunnels for private VPC deployments.
What is the difference between CockroachDB's DB Console and a GUI client?
The DB Console focuses on cluster-level monitoring — node status, replication lag, range health. A GUI client like 1bench focuses on data work — browsing tables, writing SQL, editing rows, and exporting results. The two complement each other.

Not Just CockroachDB

One tool for all your databases. No more juggling apps.
