phpMyAdmin is popular with both individuals and enterprise users who want a graphical interface for administering MySQL databases.

Here are some features tucked beneath phpMyAdmin's folds that can make you more efficient.
Xataface is a framework for the LAMP stack designed to allow non-technical users to edit the contents of MySQL databases through a Web interface.
