Why It Matters
Salesforce Tool Suite packs debug logs, schema browsing, SOQL queries, and event monitoring into a single browser extension. Instead of juggling the Developer Console for logs, SOQLXplorer for schema, and Setup for event monitoring, you get all of it in one place — right inside your browser tab.
The debug log viewer is the standout feature. It renders logs hierarchically and supports real-time tailing, which is a significant upgrade over the Developer Console’s flat log view. The schema explorer with inline SOQL builder is also well done — browse objects, pick fields, and it constructs the query for you.

Alternatives
- Salesforce Inspector Reloaded — broader utility, less depth on logs
- SOQLXplorer — native macOS app, faster for schema-heavy work
- Developer Console — built-in, but clunky and outdated
