In 2014, we discussed 4 of the top MongoDB GUIs: MongoVue, MongoHub, RockMongo, and Robo 3T (formerly Robomongo), and again in 2016: MongoDB Compass, Robo 3T, Studio 3T, and MongoBooster. This feature is perfect for someone who is not as familiar or efficient in using MongoDB syntax. Comparing MongoDB GUIs. Click To Tweet.
