Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The feature I really like is the graphical part, especially the control of the relationships."
"It is not feasible for small businesses. It is not used in a small company."
"Auto-complete is the best feature of the solution."
"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."
"The loading speed is very good."
"After creating a RabbitMQ service, they provide you with a sort of web management dashboard."
"The product is not complex; I do not have to create stored procedures, functions, or views."
"The product is not complex."
"The most valuable feature is that it's really customizable."
"The stability of this solution was very good."
"Helps us to achieve large-scale analytics."
"Simple and straightforward admin portals: Made it easy for users and worked out excellently for our requirements"
 

Cons

"The product should provide better debugging features."
"Many users don't know how to add licensing to Toad, or where it is shown, so they could make that easier."
"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."
"The fact that a single queue can't be distributed across multiple instances/nodes is a major disadvantage."
"The solution needs improvement on performance."
"The initial deployment was a little difficult."
"The product needs to focus on offering more use case documentation because browsing the internet to find it can be a process filled with struggles."
"VMware Tanzu Greenplum needs improvement in the memory area and improved methods for quick access to the disc. So, one of the quick goals of Greenplum must work on enhancing access to the disc by adding hints in the database."
"Other tools besides RabbitMQ provide good TPS and HA."
"Scalability issues are present."
"The availability could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Though I'm not involved in the licensing for Toad Data Modeler, I believe it's per user and not cheap."
"It’s an open-source solution."
"It is the best product with best fit for price/performance customer objectives."
"This is an open source solution."
"The pricing for RabbitMQ is reasonable. It is worth the cost."
"The solution's pricing is cost-effective as it does not involve significant expenses. Licensing is required only for the server, while clients do not need any licensing. Therefore, it proves to be a cost-efficient option."
"On a scale of one to five, with five being the most competitive pricing, I would rate this solution as a four."
"It is an open-source product."
"Tanzu Greenplum's pricing is really competitive and gives excellent value for money."
