In Conclusion
It’s A Question of Scale
Joe Stainke
Developer
When it comes to the Cypher query editing, Neo4j Browser and gdotv work similarly, but there are a couple of extra features gdotv includes which help it stand out. The graph view is where the difference becomes very noticeable, and gdotv offers a range of different graph display layouts, fuzzy search and the no-code Graph Explorer. In addition, Neo4j Browser’s graph display can only handle a maximum of a thousand nodes, while gdotv can easily display graphs multiple times that size.
