I like free. I used the MS products that came with SQL Server. 
Unfortunately, the (open source) admin tool for PostgreSQL is pathetic. 
And I believe there isn't one for Firebird. So to get a half-decent 
admin tool you have to buy it. Although SQL Maestro has a cut-down free 
version, like the Firebird one).

For plans, there is a free add-on called Query Analyzer which 
integrates. Not sure about version control, never looked for it. I'm 
sure it's in there somewhere, or available as an add-on.
