MySQL Workbench is a free integrated environment that allows users to graphically alter and work on their databases. As opposed to SQLite, it is native to a machine, and its data cannot be directly copied to another database. On the other hand, it allows customized queries which results in faster searches and more effective operation.
That's a bird's eye view of MySQL folks!
Cheers!
