Why developers are moving from Turntable to Galaxy

Limited Collaboration Features

Turntable lacks real-time collaboration tools, making it difficult for teams to work simultaneously on SQL queries or share insights seamlessly.

Restricted by VS Code Fork

While Turntable has some good features, it is limited in its data exploration capabilities due to being a simple fork of VSCode.

Narrow Integration Scope

Turntable integrates with select data warehouses and BI tools, but lacks comprehensive support for a wider range of platforms and services essential for diverse data ecosystems. It also does not include visualizations.

Galaxy is the best AI SQL editor for data-centric organizations.
