Best database admin interface for startups?
We are looking for an out-of-the-box admin interface that helps our team to easily manage database records without having to write any SQL queries. It should be something like phpmyadmin just more intuitive for non-tech-focussed people. One example use case would be: We have customers that place orders through our website and our team has to manually change some properties of those orders in the database.

If you're looking for a user-friendly solution even for non-tech guys, you should give Jet Admin (jetadmin.io) a try. The UI is incredible, and it's pretty easy to change cards and interface elements. Your problem with linking new entities with entities from other tables can be resolved there, too.
We've adopted Forest Admin (https://www.forestadmin.com/), which was pretty simple to configure and allows us to write custom scripts for backend functions.
Thank you for the recommendation! :) The problem is, we need to create new entities and link them with entities from other tables. With forestadmin, our team has to deal with foreign-keys and we are looking for a more user-friendly solution for non-tech people. How would you solve this? :)
If you have dev resources for a day or so, I'd recommend tryretool.com. It has some hiccups in UX and connections, but it's currently the best thing out there for powerful functionality in minimum setup time (15 min to understand how to use it). It will do anything CRUD imaginable in the lowest amount of time from a dev resource perspective.
I anticipate we'll be using it more heavily when we get the need for more customer service CRUD in a non-technical UI -- this is gonna make it take day(s) vs week(s) to implement.
Thank you for your recommendation! I will check it out :)
