Hi all,

I’m curious if anyone uses pgAdmin instead of ODK-X Suitcase to access or modify data in their postGreSQL database (on the server). I’ve found working within Suitcase to be a little cryptic, and am wondering if there might be a more user-friendly alternative.

Hi @RJP! Have you checked out the recently updated suitcase [documentation](https://docs.odk-x.org/suitcase-intro/)? Are you having challenges with the graphical or command line interface? If you have specific features you would recommend you can put them into the features category of the Forum!

Hi, and thanks for the prompt reply and suggestion! I was using the graphical interface and will post a couple thoughts on that to the Features category.
