Choice of the appropriate database admin tool depends on your needs and requirements. Below you can find a comparison of core features for Rocketadmin and Django admin.
Rocketadmin is preferred way for safe interacting with database, when you need an easy interface for basic editing - create, read, edit, delete rows. But you can't delete table or apply SQL query.
It makes Rocketadmin perfect tool for inexperienced users to easily manage production databases from any device.
Django admin requires technical skills, since it's a multifunctional tool for developers. It is important to note, Django framework should be already in use in your project. It will make the one very dependable for future updates, if you decide to change the platform. Also, Django admin needs to be installed and configured on your server, which is a time consuming process.
Django admin is a good choice for projects that are already based on the Django framework and administration tool is needed.
1. Supported databases:
Rocketadmin: MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle
Django Admin: MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQLite
List of supported databases is almost the same, but note that Django Admin can support other database backends provided by third parties.
Rocketadmin supports multiple database types connected at the same time.
2. Installation and configuration:
Rocketadmin: no installation or configuration is needed
Django Admin: requires installed Django, prepared models and configuration

3. Mobile-friendly UI:
Rocketadmin: yes
Django Admin: yes
Both options are pretty comfortable to operate using mobile devices.
4. SQL queries:
Rocketadmin: not supported
Django Admin: not supported

Rocketadmin: read, create, edit, delete
Django Admin: read, create, edit, delete
Same functionality is represented in both tools.
In Django itself you can access other operations directly via SQL.
