| Dialect support | The project is focused on Microsoft T-SQL; support for other SQL dialects is possible but none is implemented as a dedicated dialect. | The homepage names PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, BigQuery, SQL Server, Snowflake and Oracle PL/SQL as supported dialects. |
| Independent mention | J.D. Hodges lists Poor SQL as a free online alternative for formatting SQL Server queries when SQL Server 2008 lacked a comparable built-in feature. | A SQLServerCentral forum participant recommended regsql.com for interactively testing and generating regex patterns in an SQL discussion. |
Poor SQL suits T-SQL users who want configurable formatting, browser-based offline use, or integrations with listed editors and tools. It may also fit developers who want to use its open-source library in .NET, Mono, JavaScript, or Node.js contexts.
RegSQL suits independent developers who want browser-based SQL formatting and optional AI help. It may also fit users who prefer formatting to happen locally and want to choose when query text is sent to an AI provider.
