Best-in-class automation and built-in proven practices provide continuous availability, elastic scalability,.

So I was constantly looking for alternatives; 18 months ago there was none I could find and learn to like, really, but now I really favour Robomongo. It gives you 'the full power of MongoDB shell', but in the same time you can easily save, load, edit your queries, do copy/paste, view your results as JSON/trees/tables... and yes, you do get a decent autocompletion :-).

Fotonauts' fork of MongoHub is another interesting alternative to keep an eye on; it has a more 'native' OS X feel but IMO it does lack a better query editor...
