What is Dbeaver
Overview
DBeaver is a database management tool that supports many relational and NoSQL databases. It is available as a free Community Edition and paid Enterprise/mobile options.
Editions
Editions include the free Community version, paid Enterprise desktop licenses, and a mobile app with in-app premium subscriptions. Features and support vary by edition.
How to cancel Dbeaver
Cancel via mobile stores (iOS / Google Play)
- If you purchased through the iOS App Store or Google Play Store, cancel the subscription in the store’s subscription management interface.
- Do NOT expect deleting the app to stop charges; removing the app does not cancel the subscription.
- For iOS, manage subscriptions in your Apple ID subscriptions. For Google Play, manage subscriptions in Play Store subscriptions.
- See general cancellation guidance here: Postclic - DBeaver cancellation notes.
Cancel web / desktop purchases (FastSpring or direct)
- If purchased via the web (FastSpring or direct license), cancellation stops auto-renewal only; you normally cancel in the account or reseller portal used to buy the license.
- Contact the reseller or the sales/support channel used for purchase for account-specific cancellation steps or to request changes.
- Enterprise customers should check their Enterprise Software Agreement for required notice periods.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
For web/desktop subscriptions, cancellation stops future billing but your access (updates and support) continues until the end of the current paid period.
For store subscriptions, access typically continues until the current billed period ends according to the store’s rules.
Auto-renewal and reinstatement
Auto-renewal is turned off on cancellation; if you want access again you must repurchase a new license or re-subscribe.
Some offers may allow a pause (e.g., temporary pause of 1 - 10 months) rather than full cancellation - check the vendor or reseller options.
Will I get a refund?
Trial and evaluation licenses
The 14-day evaluation (trial) license simply expires at the end of the trial and is not refundable.
There is no refund for expiration of a free evaluation; you may purchase a license when needed.
Paid subscriptions and exceptions
- Paid web/Enterprise subscriptions may be eligible for a pro-rata refund only if the software materially fails and DBeaver cannot restore functionality.
- Enterprise customers typically must notify within 60 days under the Enterprise agreement to claim such a refund.
- Refunds for App Store or Google Play purchases are governed by those platforms’ refund policies, not DBeaver directly.

Your consumer rights in Singapore
Statutory protections
Consumers in Singapore are protected by the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act for unfair practices.
Even if a vendor’s policy says “no refunds,” statutory rights may still allow remedies in cases of unfair practices.
Store purchases and local law
- App Store and Google Play refunds are subject to platform policies and local law; contact the platform first for a refund request.
- For paid Enterprise purchases, follow the contractual notification and claims process (e.g., 60-day notice for material failure claims).
- See a local summary of refund policy considerations: invent.sg - refund policy overview.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback highlights
Users praise DBeaver for wide database support, a friendly interface, data visualisations and good value for money.
Reviews note strengths in SQL assistance, ER diagrams, plugins and multi-platform support.
Common criticisms
Users report occasional stability or performance issues with large queries and resource-intensive operations.
The UI and import/export workflows can feel complex for new users; advanced features are more limited in the free edition.
For user reviews, see: TrustPilot - DBeaver reviews.
Documentation checklist
Before you cancel
- Note your purchase channel (App Store, Google Play, FastSpring, reseller, direct).
- Gather purchase receipts, license keys and account emails used for the purchase.
- Check the subscription renewal date and current access expiry.
When requesting support or refund
- Prepare a clear description of the issue and steps to reproduce any software failure.
- Include screenshots, logs and the order or invoice number when contacting support or reseller.
- If you are an Enterprise customer, check contractual notice periods (e.g., 60 days for certain claims).
Common mistakes
Assuming deleting the app cancels subscription
Example: Users delete the mobile app but later are billed because the store subscription remained active.
Always cancel in the App Store or Google Play subscription settings rather than removing the app.
Missing the right contact for refunds
Example: Requesting a refund from DBeaver when purchase was made via the store; the platform controls refunds.
Identify whether purchase was via a store, reseller or direct channel and contact that party for billing/refund requests.
Comparative recap
Channel comparison
| Channel | Cancellation method | Refund policy | Access after cancellation |
| App Store / Google Play | Cancel in the store’s subscription settings | Refunds subject to platform policies | Access continues until the end of the billed period |
| Web purchase (FastSpring / direct) | Cancel via account/reseller portal or support used for purchase | Pro-rata refunds only in limited cases (material failure, subject to notice) | Access remains until the current billing period ends |
| Early Access Program (EAP) | Delete application or purchase/import a subscription key to remove EAP limits | Trial EAP time-limited; purchasing a license replaces EAP restrictions | Behavior depends on license state; EAP restrictions removed after license import |
Key takeaway
Know your purchase channel first: store purchases are handled by the store; web purchases and enterprise licenses are handled by sellers/resellers.
After cancelling
Follow-up steps
- Keep a copy of cancellation confirmation and any updated invoices or emails.
- Monitor your payment method to ensure no unexpected renewals occur after cancellation.
