That's a fair comment, If anything them not being locked down makes access to databases easier to connect to Outerbase. I agree that users should learn SQL, even when you use EZQL it returns the actual SQL in a fully-editable IDE that can be modified in whatever way you would want. Do you think that the existing tools out there provide a good environment for those non-technical teams to learn SQL? Maybe I'm biased but I have never been a huge fan of accessing data from the majority of the existing tools as they feel outdated and like tools built mostly for engineers.

There are a truly extraordinary number of people I've worked with who query sql by going in to SSMS, object explorer, find table, right click "select top 1000 rows" and then fiddling around with the query to get what they want. Obviously in some schemas this might be useless, but most often there are views which cover obvious uses.
