Hi Michal!
Thanks for that product info, I have never seen it before.
To me, this looks like a rip-off. It has many distinct elements used in PMA (look at the result display) but with even uglier represantation. I somehow also don't like the tone of comparison to PMA:
"Like phpMyAdmin, eskuel can backup a table property, export and import the structure and/or the content of a database. You'll be able to add, delete one or more records, control and optimize the size of one table or database, rename or copy datas, in fact you'll can do everything phpMyAdmin does but better and efficiently."
How can that be done "better"? And I don't see it more efficient if you have all interface option in one huge right side panel.
"Better because we tried to create a more attractive interface (just take a look at the screenshots), more ergonomic (you can quickly do everything), more "cross-browser" (no more bugging frames or dhtml) and customizable (absolutely !). "
I think one could struggle about attractiveness, but I really think our pages are cross-browser compatible. And they DO use Javascript as well. ;)
Well, but what annoys me the most:
"More efficient because we wanted each request to be the fastest of the world"
I may want to look at the source of their application to see how they did it faster than we use direct MySQL-function. If they use an abstraction layer, they won't be faster.
But well, I do think that competition is good. However I think their time could have been saved by contributing to PMA to make a skinnable interface. That's the only think I like about their app. And maybe one could have added an "options" panel for experienced users. But for many parts I see just a worse functional rip-off of existing PMA functions.
