SiteGround launched new Client Area and Site Tools last year. Built using REACT as a single-page application, the new Client Area is faster to work with and totally mobile-friendly. To access the database in the new Site Tools, you can phpMyAdmin.
Just for your reference, if you want a cost-effective web hosting service, you might want to consider Bluehost's Shared Hosting plans. Most especially, if you sign up for Bluehost web-hosting service by clicking the following banner, you can use it starting from USD2.95/month (with 1 dollar off per month).
I will get some commission when you sign up for a web-hosting service by clicking on the links in this post. However, I do not suggest specific service just for commission; I have been running and managing WordPress websites from several web hosting companies including SG and BH for more than 6 years. If you are looking for a web hosting service with cheap but relatively good resources, Bluehost's Shared Hosting will be a good option to consider.
How to access phpMyAdmin in the new Site Tools
Once you logged into SiteGround, click on Websites on the navigation menu to access My Websites page. The list of your websites will appear. Click on the Site Tools button to access Site Tools.
On the left panel, select Site > MySQL to access the MySQL Manager tool. Click on the PHPMYADMIN tab.
The Access phpMyAdmin section appears. Click on the ACCESS PHPMYADMIN button.
Now you can access the phpMyAdmin web interface.
In the cPanel interface, all databases are shown on the left panel in the phpMyAdmin screen. However, in the Site Tools, only the DBs related to the specific website can be accessed.
Most existing users will still access phpMyAdmin via cPanel.
