What it is

Another Redis Desktop Manager is a graphical app for connecting to Redis servers and viewing or editing their keys and values without using the command line. The README says it runs on Linux, Windows, and Mac, and claims it will not crash when loading massive keys. It supports features such as cluster, sentinel, SSL/TLS, and SSH connections, according to the project's feature log.

  • Browse and edit keys and values in a connected Redis instance
  • Export and import keys, according to the feature log
  • Run batch commands imported from files
  • Monitor commands or view slow logs and execution logs

Great for

  • Developers who prefer a visual interface over redis-cli for inspecting keys
  • Teams working with Redis Cluster or Sentinel setups
  • People who need to connect through SSH or SSL/TLS
  • Users on Windows, Mac, or Linux who want a single desktop client

Not ideal for

  • People who only need scripted or server-side Redis access, since this is a desktop GUI client
  • Users who need a verified, audited tool for production security review, since the README does not describe security audits

    • Create a new connection with your Redis server's host, port, and any credentials.
    • Open the connection to browse its keys.
  3. 3

    Get the most out of it

    • Use SSH or SSL/TLS settings in the connection dialog if your server requires them.
    • On Linux Snap, run the ssh-keys connect command from the README if private key selection is denied.

    • Use the execution log and monitor views to see commands run against the server.

Downloads

Strengths

  • Available on Windows, Mac, and Linux with installers, package managers, and an AppImage
  • Open source under the MIT license with a large community, shown by about 34,800 stars

Trade-offs

  • The README does not say which Redis versions are fully supported, beyond a note about hash field TTL requiring Redis 7.4 or later

  • Mac installs may need a quarantine-removal command if the app will not open
