• Cloud Storage (Team Workspaces)
• Backup & Restore (coming soon)
• Importing Data (csv, json, etc) (coming soon)

1. Download and install the full version of Beekeeper Studio.
2. Open Beekeeper Studio to begin your 14 day free trial.
3. All your connections and settings will transfer over from the community edition automatically.
4. Purchase a license to keep using the app.
5. Uninstall the community edition.

Purchases support open source

We’re committed to supporting a community edition of Beekeeper Studio -- tech accessibility is really important to us, and not everyone can afford to pay for a database manager. Everyone deserves access to good software.

Buying a copy of Beekeeper Studio is the best way to support the continued development of the community edition. Thank you! 🙏
