The electronegativity of Be and O are 1.57 and 3.44 respectively. The difference in the electronegativity is 1.87. Hence an ionic bond is formed between these two or in other words, BeO is an ionic ompound.
Note: If the electronegativity difference between two atoms forming a bond is more than 1.7 according to Pauling's scale, then ionic bonds are formed and if the the electronegativity difference between two atoms forming a bond is less than 1.7, then covalent bonds are formed.
The electronegativities of Be and O are 1.57 and 3.44 respectively. The difference in electronegativity is 1.87. A difference in electronegativity greater than 1.6 (or 1.7 according to some sources) indicates an ionic bond.
The bonding in BeO is partially covalent and less ionic than MgO.

Hydrogen chloride has a covalent bond.
When atoms share electrons, they form a chemical bond, or covalent bond.
A chemical bond that involves the sharing of electrons is a covalent bond. A nonpolar covalent bond is the type of bond that involves the most sharing.
This is a covalent bond.
