A scalable and stable product that is easy to deploy and provides excellent features
The Oracle side of things was very popular. The admin features for Oracle were great. It would be a really good thing if we had a similar functionality to SQL Server. The product is not too bad with maintenance. MySQL would be better than Toad. I always recommend the product to others. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"EDB Postgres Enterprise Manager helps us to build custom files."
"I found all features valuable and necessary in Toad Data Modeler, particularly how good the solution is for modeling, database schema generation, and database re-engineering. I also found Toad Data Modeler straightforward to use."
"It is not feasible for small businesses. It is not used in a small company."
"Auto-complete is the best feature of the solution."
"The feature I really like is the graphical part, especially the control of the relationships."
 

Cons

"The tool needs improvement in pricing and support."
"Many users don't know how to add licensing to Toad, or where it is shown, so they could make that easier."
"The product should provide better debugging features."
"What could be improved in Toad Data Modeler is stability and the complex setup."
"When updating a model after generating a schema, if only a few tables are imported, the tool assumes you want to delete the rest, which is cumbersome."
"It is not feasible for small businesses. It is not used in a small company."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Though I'm not involved in the licensing for Toad Data Modeler, I believe it's per user and not cheap."
"Price-wise, the lesser it is, the better it is for me, especially in Egypt. I think that the licensing cost ranges from 1,000 to 9,000. Also, it includes maintenance and support for a year."
