35/100
LibreOffice Base works well if you just need a desktop database for forms and reports. It's not built for creating full web or mobile apps like 4D. Teams needing cross-platform app development will find it lacking.
Dbeaver
30/100
DBeaver is perfect if your team spends most of its time writing queries, exploring databases, or managing data across different systems. It’s not built for creating full applications with user interfaces or business logic like 4D is. Think of it as a super-powered database tool, not an app factory.
Adoption RiskExpected friction, training effort, and behavior change needed to move teams onto the alternative.
