As I make the full switch from Windows to Linux (CentOS 5) I'm in search of the best free GUI SQL Client tool for MSSQL, MySQL, Oracle, etc... any suggestions?
I've tried DBVisualizer (The best bet so far but still limited by the free version, not all functionality is there), MySQL GUI Tools (Good but only for MySQL, need other DB's as well) and Aqua Data Studio (Same as DBVis, it's good but a lot of the functionality is missing in the free version).

The most common GUI for SQL Server on windows is SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) which is free. That is based on Visual Studio Shell so it's not available for other platforms. But SQL Operations Studio is a new free, opensource, cross-platform GUI you can use on your mac.
DBeaver. DBeaver is a free and open-source option for an SQL editor. DBeaver is an open-source database management tool, which has a pretty neat SQL editor. It is free, cross-platforms, and also provides an Eclipse plugin if you use the Eclipse IDE for development.
Oracle Linux is the development standard at Oracle. Oracle Database and all of Oracle's other software, services, and solutions are developed on and run in production on Oracle Linux.
I can highly recommend Squirrel SQL.

I'm sticking with DbVisualizer Free until something better comes along.
EDIT/UPDATE: been using https://dbeaver.io/ lately, really enjoying this
