Toad for Oracle Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Vice President, Director Enterprise Architecture at JE Dunn Construction4.5I've used Toad for Oracle daily for 20 years to manage PL/SQL objects and forecasting data; it's stable and simplifies database work, though scalability is limited. Setup was easy, and I’d rate it 9 out of 10.
OCI/AWS Consultant at a government with 11-50 employees5.0I use Toad for Oracle for database management tasks, finding its session management and auto SQL tuning features invaluable for performance optimization. While it offers a good ROI, incorporating OEM features could further streamline management. SQL Developer, a potential alternative, lacks Toad's extensive functionalities.
Senior Reg Reporting Consultant at Bank of America4.5I use Toad for Oracle primarily for reporting, having previously utilized it with Oracle E-Business Suite Financials and currently with Oracle Cloud. Its performance tuning is valuable, though occasional error codes require manual resolution. Overall, there's a positive ROI.
Manager Software Engineering at URA4.5I use Toad for Oracle to develop packages and procedures and monitor our DBA setup. The schema browser is invaluable, though shortcuts and copy-paste functionality need improvement. It optimizes troubleshooting, achieving an ROI I rate nine out of ten.
Senior Quality Assurance Consultant at Public and Business Service Delivery4.0I use Toad for Oracle for basic SQL queries, mainly SELECT statements and JOINs. Its database connections and modules are valuable, but initial setup needs improvement. We switched from IBM Data Studio due to its reliability and positive feedback.
Manager (Oracle EBS ) at PRAN-RFL Group4.0I find Toad for Oracle extremely useful for writing and analyzing SQL queries quickly and accurately, especially with our extensive 10 TB database. It's flexible and helps with data visualization, though remote access could improve for better connectivity.
Senior Oracle Apex Developer at Abu Dhabi City Municipality4.0I use Toad for Oracle primarily for managing tables and objects as a developer. It offers valuable features and an easy installation, but the lack of a free version limits its use. I've since switched to PSQL due to license issues.
Manager of Migration of Oracle Forms Applications at CIEMAT at Aubay Spain4.5I primarily use Toad for Oracle for database queries and updates. It excels in query optimization and structure comparison. However, report generation needs improvement. Previously, I used SQL Navigator and Oracle SQL Developer, but Toad offers more comprehensive features.
